I was going to do a top ten but I couldn’t come up with ten good albums for this year. I could only come up with a few good ones and some pretty decent ones.

With this year shaping up to be a pretty shameful year for music I have been looking back to the past for comfort. I have found the year 1994 to be quite comforting and it has a bit of everything for a wide range of tastes. If you like collections there was an INXS greatest hits album, an Aerosmith “Best of” album called “Big Ones” or you can go with the “Pulp Fiction” or “Forrest Gump” soundtracks. For the R&B, Soul-slash-Girly music crowd there was a Boyz II Men, a Sarah McLachlan and I think a Mariah Carey album. Even the Mormon Tabernacle Choir got in on 1994 and put something out.

Treating people differently based on race, sex, religion or any other distinguishing characteristic is frowned upon by our society. In many cases it is actually illegal. With this in mind I would like to draw your attention to a blatant and unfair discrimination that is widely accepted.

There are some words and phrases that I want to say more, so I will put the list out there. Some of these are old quotes and phrases and some are newly made up.

A while ago there was a show called $40 a Day on the Food Network. Some goofy lady would go around and eat stuff in different places with the goal of spending $40 a day. Oh wow, $40 a day how will she survive? The show is obviously for the super-rich, elite people. $40 X 30 days = $1,200. $1,200 bucks a month is enough for the lowly people to pay for a house. I should have a show on the Food Network. I can’t think of a great name for it yet. “$7 a Day”, “Hobo Eats”, “Eating Garbage” or “Proletariat Dining”. These are the front runners right now.

With the invention of the internet there came the ability to spread knowledge of how to behave at bathroom urinals. With games like Urinal Quiz one could learn about proper etiquette in the bathroom without having to be in the bathroom. Imagine the old days when an older, wiser man would take a young man into the bathroom to teach him how to pick urinals. They would watch others use the restroom and the young man would be quizzed about where to go. This was very uncomfortable for everyone involved.

For a few years now, myself and some of my friends have been trying to find a way to help one of the most helpless and downtrodden forms of life on Earth. It pains me to the core to see this life form trampled and killed on a daily basis with no regard for it’s feelings. I see it happen at sporting events and at schools. It happens at protests and rallies, family get-togethers and in everyday life. The constant barrage of carelessness and even purposeful destruction makes me sick to the core. If you haven’t figured it out by now I will tell you, this life form is grass. So small and fragile, so helpless and cut-down. Why can’t we leave the grass alone? It reaches for the sky and we just cut it right back down again.

ATV’s on the street
I want to save more money on gas, but I am too lazy to keep a motorcycle or scooter balanced while riding. A four wheeler would be perfect. I once called a sheriff’s department to ask them why they aren’t street legal and how I could fix it and they said they didn’t know. I asked a lady at the DMV and she said they were too dangerous. I replied by telling her that motorcycles are just as unsafe if not more so. She was stumped as well. I imagine I would just need to put mirrors and lights on one. If anyone has definitive answers let me know.

Some time ago, let’s say last August, I was called in to sign something at a doctors office. Next to the signature was a space for the date. I wrote 8/6/7 in the date space. The woman who gave me the paper looked at it and then said, ” I think you have to put 8/6/07.” I then asked, “Should I put 08/06/07 or 008/006/007 ?”

Here are a couple of designs that I feel could have gone better.
The Praying Mantis Makers
The V is supposed to look fancy and elegant. But instead I can’t help wondering, “What kind of surgery do they do at this place.”
