I am full of illogical streaks and inconsistencies broad enough to drive a semi-truck through. Sometimes I like to believe that it is the philosophical burps that lunge forward, that define me. I like , no love hockey, but football mostly bores me. I like Bluegrass and honky tonk, but that “pop country” stuff makes me want to get an enema. I like muffins and bread pudding but stick a raisin in either of those and my head will explode.
My father complains that I cannot just go see a movie for fun. That isn’t really true but most of my friend and family members consider it a chore to attend movies with me. I gripe about crappy ones in that horrifying self-important way that makes whoever is with me pretend they aren’t. Even my movie choices are a bit odd for some I absolutely adore all of those 70’s disaster movies but I also like Visconti.
I seriously doubt that these two men ever knew one another.
And..
They are related because I like them both. If I was stuck on a desert island, I would have to possess magical sand induced CD playing ability and What’s Going On would be one of my selections. The Wild Bunch and the Unforgiven would be in there along with Visconti’s The Damned, and Inarritu’s Amores Perros. Five minutes from now I will end up compiling a list in my head and cursing myself for omitting something.
Film offering….
Musical selection…
What randomly related things catch your fancy?

I am heading out in an hour or so to eat sushi in the big city.
I’d eat peanut butter, but I was “allergic” to peanuts……
Now, as an adult, I like peanuts, but I won’t eat them in chocolate chip cookies or other baked goods.
I like sports, but not team sports, I’m definitely not a team player. I like racket ball but hate tennis.
Enjoy the sushi, UCC, I’m jealous. No sushi places ANYWHERE nearby. What is your fav?
I dig bluefin tuna sashimi!

you’re both becoming v.dear to me
and “pop country” bear no relationship to each other whatsoever.
Makes me think of hillbilly punk rocker activist progressive Steve Earle bragging that he keeps a picture of Reba Mcintyre taped to the underside of his toilet lid.
