I wish people were as mad about the police literally severing a man’s spine and killing them as they are about some broken car windows.

I wish people would realize that when you steal all the drugs out of a CVS pharmacy and then burn it down, you don’t really give two shits about the police severing a man’s spine and killing him.

Stay classy, Baltimore.

Why are you looting and burning again? I forget….

In other news, the talking heads on this CBS channel are discussing how the mayor of Baltimore doesn’t smile very much. WTF?

Don’t mind me, I’ll be over here in the corner praying for an alien abduction.

Neil deGrasse Tyson is coming here in October, but I don’t think I’ll go see him.

He’s got a pretty busy schedule in 2015. He will fly out to Akron on May 6th, then fly to Pittsburgh a few days later, then fly back to New York. On May 13th and 14th he flies out to Missouri and Illinois, then flies back to New York for awhile. Mid-June, he flies out to Texas for a series of concerts there: Houston, San Antonio, Austin. Then flies back to New York. Then to Rhode Island, which isn’t too far away. Maybe he will take a big ol’ stinky bus. Then back to New York. In early October, he flies out to Ohio again, then will fly here, to Rapid City, South Dakota, where for only several dozen dollars I can listen to him preach to me about climate change.

Yeah, I think I’ll stay home and be part of the solution. LOL.

Apparently, we're all a bunch of slackers, according to my local paper.

Us Jack White fans, I mean. I got the sense that they were somewhat taken aback by how many people showed up for tickets so quickly. The show was announced at 8 AM and by 10, four hundred people were in line, including me. It wasn’t until almost noon that the press showed up and few cops. A nearby gunshop and bait store parking lot was taken over by the cars of people in line and the owner called in like 5 tow trucks to haul them away. What a dick.

The show itself was amazing. Amazing. Very intimate. For awhile it was just Jack and an acoustic guitar singing on the edge of the stage unmiked. Not gonna lie, I teared up a few times. His voice is so emotional!

There was one snag: during beginning stages of the show some loud-mouthed, probably drunk chick was heckling him. She apparently wasn’t too happy with the country/bluegrass nature of the show.

What a fucking heathen.

But the crowd really came down hard on her. For a minute I was actually worried about her, as it seemed like they were going to kill her. Thankfully, she shut the fuck up.

Jesus, I thought, here Jack White is kind enough to give us a very intimate, essentially free show before he goes on a long perfoming hiatus and this tool is heckling him? If the crowd did kill her, I probably would’ve been ok with it. Haha.

After the show, I ate a bunch of falafels and went to bed.

God bless you, Jack White. I bet even God is thankful you didn’t become a priest :)

Time to roll. See ya later.

Nothing good ever happens on a compound.

Ever notice? It’s always meth cooking or a big pile of weapons or some whack job cult. No one ever stumbles upon a compound full of bunnies.

Ha, cool. He did Wyoming last night, but I’m not sure where. I read about it and thought “Ah, he’ll go to Sioux Falls. They always go to Sioux Falls.” I was all laying in bed half asleep and my sister called, “Mike, get your ass down here.”

Haha. Gonna be fun :)

DUH!
It would take a community college level education to actually believe Obama is a half-assed President.

This has cured me of my recent Social D obsession. Play it over and over again. It makes more and more sense.

It’s like our education system!
