Seriously Mackenzie, Seriously?

I just do not understand people? Maybe I think too much? Anyway, this whole Mackenzie Phillips thing is nucking futs. However, I have a few thoughts on the matter.

All I have to say about John Phillips is that if the Rolling Stones didn't want to hang out with you in the 70's because you were too messed up... Then he had some serious issues.

Also, I am not saying that incest isn't disgusting and horribly wrong. It is, but she keeps saying that it was consensual? Then I read the word 'forced' in the same sentence. Last time I check (Forgive me if I am slow, I only went to a SUNY school), but consensual means both parties agreed to participate in whatever act they participated in. In this cats opinion she shouldn't be pitied or sympathized in this situation.

What the F**k?

Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with people? That girl from Hofstra, that guy from Yale. I do not get people anymore? Why do good people seem to always get fucked over and/or killed? I have some tips for that girl from Hofstra though. If you do not want to be labeled as a tramp... Do not have sex with 4 guys in one night while they all watch! If you were a band you'd be Supertramp.

Random Thoughts 12

Kanye West is a moron. Shut up and go away for a while. Please!!

The 'fans' that vandalized that dude from the Buffalo Bills lawn need to get a fucking life. He fumbled a football. Get over it. I know they take football really serious up there, but seriously what the hell is wrong with people?

How come there are no Stevie Ray Vaughan tribute concerts? I saw one of the Experience Hendrix ones and it was really cool. I wanna see more SRV related shows.

Hello.

I have been dormant for a while, but now I am back. I got a lot on my mind so I want to share it with ya'll.

What the fuck is with that moron heckling Obama during he speech? It is not a minor league baseball game. The President of the US is giving a speech. I know the health care reform is a touchy subject with everyone, but people wonder we (the normal people) hate politicians. Because they act like jack asses!! First those jerks in Albany, now heckling in the house? Someone going to start the wave next? Maybe shoot t-shirts with their opinions into the crowd? What a bunch of idiots. People are entitled to their opinion, but sometimes it is better just to shut up.

The Beatles re-mastered albums came out and I am fucking geeked. They deserve all the hype they receive even 40 years after they broke up. No one and I mean NO ONE will ever accomplish what they did in basically a 6 1/2 year span. They were geniuses and matured so fast in terms or musicianship and songwriters it is unreal. They went from 'I Want to Hold Your Hand' to 'Strawberry Fields Forever' in a matter of a few years. It is mind blowing to think of all they accomplished. I mean, George was only 26 when they made Abbey Road for fuck sake!!

Blargh...

I am so fucking sick of this story of the cop & Professor from Harvard. I am so sick of racism and people claiming racial profiling on everything that happens. Are these real issues? Yes, very much so. I have not had to deal with these problems, so I cannot put myself in anyone else's shoes. But... people need to realize not all things are a black & white issue. Sometimes people are just assholes. Sometimes people are just mean, ignorant and selfish. Not everything is a race issue. I am sure both men in this case overreacted. It is unfortunate and sad that it becomes a world event. My biggest disappointment with this issue is how the president handled it. He made comments that were so ignorant. I have to say he is really letting me down so far as president. I see him on Entertainment tonight more than on the news.

Guitar Tone

I am listening to some Zappa right now and his guitar tone is just unreal. I am not talking about his playing, but the way the notes sound when they come out his guitar. Few guitar players have it. Neil Young is another guy. His tone is so distinct and mesmerizing. What are some other guitar players that have an identifying tone? Hendrix? Van Halen? Tone is different than playing style.
