Caramel Shoes

I made my shoes from caramel.
I thought they’d make my feet not smell
like feet.
But, phew, that sweet and sweaty smell
of sticky feet in caramel
is utterly disgusting and, whoa, it’s not discrete!
My one-time favorite caramel
is candy now I hate to smell…
Oh, tragedy! It’s candy that I never want to eat!
(But now my mouth begins to water when I smell my feet…)

Again, we are faced with fingers, BIG ONES!

So the liberal media had once again decided to point its obnoxious fat finger in its normal hypocritical fashion. It seems some liberal media has taken offense due to the fact that a cruise line had decided to send its ship to Haiti and deliver aid while allowing its passengers to enjoy the beauty of Haiti and to allow local employees to make money and support the people to the south. You see, the beach they go to is in the north and was largely unaffected by the earthquake. So, had the cruise line decided to abandon Haiti, they would have simply had their ship spend money elsewhere. my issue is, as always, is who the F’k are the media to judge? i mean, come on, where is the demarcation line of an acceptable place to enjoy oneself in the face of such a human disaster? this is a tiny planet. i am sitting at the computer, sipping a cold beer in my well heated house….am i any less guilty than the cruise line or its occupants? probably not. nor is the liberal media in their cozy little offices sitting their well rested and well fed fat bodies on their cushy writing chairs. so to all the writers with the pens, please, take some pleasure by shoving them where the sun dont shine. good luck.

Music For A New Year

As my gut bloats in protest to the overindulgence of the holidays, which now begin a week before Halloween for me, I thought I would share a couple picks for those out in WB’s land with an ear for Organ Jazz.

The smokin trio 3osity has a new one out under the name Tri-Ocity, that features tunes from Billy Strayhorn, Wayne Shorter, Charlie Mingus, John Coltrane and Larry Young.  This disc delivers the goods if you’re looking for solid Hammond B3/Guitar/Drums combo.

The second disc comes from guitarist  Corey Christiansen who keeps showing up on my jazz music channel on cable. Every time I hear these  guys I think, holy-moly, who is that?   Every time it is the same name, CC, that I’ve never checked out until now.  These  guys are well worth listening to.  Similar to Tri-ocity, but with a great tenor sax player.  This disc also features the same organ player, Pat Bianchi, from  3/Tri-ocity.

What are you listening to at the start of this new decade?

Enjoy

Pzizz- Nap App

For all you nappers out there, myself included, Pzizz has an iPhone app. Funny how I have such a mental block about purchasing an app for $9.99, but will most likely check this one out. http://www.sleepwarrior.com/pzizz

New Year well wishes

Phish Stream

Just stumbled upon this site that allows one to stream pretty much every Phish show ever played.   Great quality.   I highly recommend the 8-17-97 Bathtub Gin.   If you are short on time, forward about 8 minutes in to that one.  A fine example of Jim’s “Boiling Point” theory of jamming.  Have Fun
