Doing minor home repairs with bffrich, I feel just like Natalie Bruner. Now it is raining. The wind is noisy in the chimney. High wind/surf advisory. It's stormin', Norman. And now it's winter...winter in America.

it's only words

 
















I think all pix is the way2go. Or maybe there is somebody who would write my blog4me? 4free? Cant think of anything2say. Im just a quiet man...with no words2say. 

ice hotel

 
















If u like documentaries, check out ICE HOTEL. Watch with a heating pad or electric blanket tho. Brrrrr. Speaking of brrrrrr, how can the gas/electric bill be $153 when we have not had the heat on and have been freezing our tucheses off. Must be the heating pad and electric blanket. Except we dont have an electric blanket. That's how they getcha, as George Costanza's father used2say.

Still no tour or shows. Pasadena on all that. Show shmo.

Hello everybody. Here's a funny(?)streetcar story: We were standing on Powell Street, a very steep street, and a streetcar driver going up the hill leaned out and shouted to a streetcar driver going down the hill, HEY DID U GET THE BRAKES FIXED ON THAT THING YET? Ya know how u hear something that u never4get? This could be one of those things.

Speaking of things u dont4get, do they still make Rice-a-Roni? I dont think i've ever eaten Rice-a-Roni, so it's not THAT im not4getting, it's the commercial for Rice-a-Roni i cant seem to 4get. But if i got going on all the commercials i cant4get, we (or at least I) would be here all day. Maybe some other time I'll recite the(very long) CERTS ad for you, which i cant 4get even tho it burned itself into my memory such a long time ago. Until then...x0x0 

feels like christmas

 












Stormy. Without power for 8 hours. Had to eat 6 tofu cuties to save them from melting in the freezer. This sunny picture doesnt really work here. Doesnt look like a power outage picture. It's a nice chrishmish picture tho. Wanna hear a chrishmish song? 

standing in the shadows of love in the shadows

 












...wearing pearly pink Hush Puppies. That's right, Hush Puppies. they aint LOOK like Hush Puppies, but they FEEL like Hush Puppies. Hush-a-bye hush-a-bye oh my darling dont u cry. No tour no cry cry. No tour no cry. 

frosted

 












Brrrrrrrrrrr..43F in San Francisco. It's cold, and it's damp. That's why the lady, THAT's why the laydee, that's why the LAYDEE is Sitting Here Shivering.
O-nay Ewer-tay 4me. Speaking of pig latin, have u ever heard "boptalk"? Every vowel says its own name. After every consonant, say "opp". So...the word "cold" would be "copp-o-LOPP-dopp." The word "blog" would be "bopp-LOPP-o-gopp". "Bite the bone" would be "bopp-I-TOPP-E-,Topp-HOPP-E, Bopp-o-NOPP-E. Ya with me??? x0x0 

hats amazing

 












Still working on hand-made chrishmish cards2send out. A coupla chrishmishes ago, my gift to HUMAN4ANIMAL was hand-made cards complete with postage, all ready2b mailed out(except the addresses). That was a good gift... stress-reducing prezzies is good. The only prezzy we've received so far is a 12pound tin of chrishmish cookies. Trying2think what2do with it. It's not appealing in any way. Unlike the big box of chocolates at the chiropracter's office today. I almost almost had one. (Or more. Who can eat only one candy? Especially when they r all different.) The doctor took my arm off then put it back on. Much better. Might be able2tour soon. NOT!!!!!!! :-) 

did you ever see santa in a cowboy suit?

 












Keep4getting2look4 my cowboy christmas cd. by Michael somebody? Murphy? McMurphy? Martin? Every song is great. Every song tells a story. Maybe mxrich will write in and let us know who the artist is. Anyway, he is a real cowboy with a real farm/ranch. The songs can make u cry. So if u feel like crying, and who doesnt?, check this cd out. No Christmas shows4me. Might learn some christmas songs on the harmonica though. 

it's beginning2look a lot like christmas

 












Went to Tiburon. Didnt play a show or anything, just walked around and looked around and sat around. Sat around on the dock/deck at Sam's Anchor Cafe. That's where2get the bomb fish&chips, altho we noticed they've raised their prices. Lunch used2b alot cheaper. Now, lunch prices r more like dinner prices.
The whole town is like a movie facade. Unreal. Candy store, ice cream store. The Fire Dept. has these huge Hummer-like fire engines. Very fancy. We hadnt seen fire engines like this b4. Bells, whistles, AND sirens. Happy Tiburon Christmas. 

chrishmish

 












Just had a safety meeting, feeling non-verbal. Working on home-made cards2send out. Got a card from Hal Blaine. Saweet! 

what the...?

 












Can anyone explain this sign? It says SAFE SURRENDER SITE. Is it for when u find a baby on the street? Is it for those times when u r fed up with your own baby? It is posted at the local neighborhood fire station. Dont wanna seem suspicious by going in to ask about the sign. So wont u please, be my be my, be my little baby. My one and only baby. Say you'll be my darling. And be my baby now. Ah wo ho ho ho-o. Not the Santa kind of ho ho ho. The Phil Spector kind. Googled him yesterday, didnt seem 2b any new news. Well, Im not touring and neither is he. But i guess Santa might be. The world is a big place when your only car is reindeer. Which reminds me of a funny bumper-sticker idea i once had. Well, I thought it was funny anyway..."My other car is an accordion". OK Santa, have a nice tour. And dont4get those yoga flashcards i asked for. (Please). 

pink pink u stink

 












Not really...u smell wonderful. Real nice. Mmmmmmmm. And we are smelling good too. Like a veritable rose/s. We r giving off good smells because we r happy with our AMG review of LOUIE LOUIE. And also a nice one(we think)in a French magazine. Walked around North Beach 2day... the Savoy Tivoli, the Zoetrope Building, Washington Square Park, Capps Corner. Capps Corner is where we first met Tony Dingman, the self-described "designated drinker" of the Coppola crew back in the day. Which day? The 1978-79 day. Anyway, thought about doing a show, but didnt actually do one.
