Barefooted Rambling Without Reloading

It's been awhile but what better way than just to jump in... head first with some random thoughts.


1st- I missed blogging, even if it was videos and quotes. There's a few reasons that I avoided 'rambling' for a little bit. For the most part, I've spent more time on other writing projects. The latest is almost a type of Memoir. I started it off to vent but the more and more I write it, I'm rediscovering some gems of moments. Rediscovery and also a bit of re-examining some moments. It's been an experience and it only keeps getting deeper. In the long run, this kind of writing will prove helpful. Another reason why I've been unrambling, Life continues to be a ball player and throws curve balls. I wouldn't have it any other way. Twists and turns. Twists and turns.

2nd random thought- I was called a bum today. At first, I was angry because 1) it was a work situation and I couldn't react... comfortably and 2) It was how the lady said it. It felt like an attack. She made a few good points. I'm starting to look like I run through the woods at night and scratch behind the ears with my good foot. And I'm an absolute dirty worker. What can I say? I'm a cook by nature. If I'm not making a mess, I feel like I'm resting. If my pants aren't filthy in a couple of hours, I've wasted time doing crap.

After some thought, I wasn't and am not angry enough to do anything about it. I shower  and shave enough to keep it out of my eyes. Howl on.


It did have me think second about the homeless. They get a bad rep. Espescially the homeless with cell phones. Tis Tis, I'll leave that for another blog.



3rd- Speaking of bums, I watched an excellent movie a  few weeks ago. Hobo with a Shotgun.
This a breath of fresh air compared to any other movie I've seen in the past year. The title actually says it all. A HOMELESS MAN takes care of corruption with a SHOTGUN. When I say corruption, It's not  a buildup that develop over contrived dialouge and extended shots of "city life". It's shown in a manner that makes one question their own sanity for sitting through it. Gory and over the Top doesn't necessarily mean bad. Not in this case.


4th- I heard a great song by The Rolling Stones that surprised me of the 2005 release date. I was expecting something a bit earlier.



That does it for tonight. I felt a need to put a stop to the inactivity.

Until next time,
