The Family Is Back!

So, imagine my surprise today when I got on Facebook to see a message from my friend Nicole...shout out to Velma...saying "OMG Kevin's back!!" I was intrigued, thinking, wait a minute, Papi left a few years ago to spend time with the family..which I understood, supported and after a few margaritas and tears, accepted it. Now, thanks to seaching the webiste and hearing it out of the mouths of a couple of babes....Nick still looks 18 don't he? Lol! We find out....that in every sense of the words...Backstreet is indeed back! All of them are back again, a new album...all good to go again...Ladies, I'm 16 again, and I am happy! So I have to have to put a few of my favorite videos on here to welcome back Kevin...Backstreet's Back! Whoo Hoo!

Another Loss

My post yesterday has to be changed now....today Levon Helm, the husky Southren voice of The Band succumbed to throat cancer...at the age of 71. In the words of Freddie Mercury...another one bites the dust. Levon Helm, for those who don't know, was the drummer for The Band, he was the lead vocalist for songs like Up On Cripple Creek, Ophelia, The Weight, and The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down. He was the basis for the Elton John song that bears his name...Levon.
He was also a very good actor, played Loretta Lynn's father in Coal Miners Daughter. 71 years old...71 good years. But its still hard isn't it? Losing Davy Jones in his 60's, Levon Helm in his 70's and Dick Clark in his 80's....why do the good ones go too soon?  In memory of Levon Helm I am putting some videos of The Band and a scene from Coal Miners Daughter. RIP Mr. Helm...the other side welcomed a wonderful musician tonight.

Another Loss In TV Land

Dick Clark...America's Oldest Living Teenager is dead at the age of 82.  To the "baby-boomer" generation another part of their  childhood is dead. Another brick in the wall has fallen. It is unevitable..life and death is hand-in-hand...It is sad, but it is true. Dick Clark, Davy Jones, Jeff Conaway....all these bright stars have dimmed, and those stars will never burn again. But, they will never be forgotten. Everyone lives, not everyone dies...Death is one thing that we cannot fix, change, or stop. Life is one thing we cannot fix, change or stop. It is a circle that never stops going around. My New Year's Eve for 31 years has been spent watching Dick Clark, watching the ball drop in Times Square, and now I don't think I can ever watch it again. It has been taken over by Ryan Seacrest....that ruins it for me. Dick Clark, Davy Jones, Jeff Conaway...and soon to be Levon Helm. I hope Levon can hold on, as is my hope for Robin Gibb. All these brilliant people, leaving so soon. May they find the glowing light waiting for them, and may they decided to take this journey again.

Levon Helm....Amazing Drummer...Amazing Band

Robin Gibb....Hold On Mate...Hold On

Been Awhile

Sometimes I forget that I have this thing...I just go on about my business and don't really add anything. Been just hanging out, not really doing or thinking anything super important. I have noticed that I have turned into a YouTube person. Looking up old videos, old memories that I can find at the flick of a switch. I used to have a way of telling who was of my time and who wasn't...it was this...
That was from 1989...when I was 8 year old, a few months before I turned 9...I remember it so well. Funny isn't it?
That was so long ago, but it seems like yesterday. 1989...to 2012....seems like another lifetime.
That was my Blast From The Past for the night.

Strange Dreams

So, okay had this super weird dream, and wanted to share with everyone.  It wasn't a long dream, fairly short, but freaky.  There was a bed, there was a fine man waiting for me in that bed, and as i went to get into that bed with the fine ass man...suddenly from underneath the bed here comes bugs, snakes, spiders, pouring out from underneath the bed...Any ideas? Anyone? Small post, here is a song...

Animals: Do They Matter?

Okay, so upon hearing the comments typed by a "friend" of mine, who happens to be, um how can I be polite about this...a jesus freak...I had to respond in the best way I know how. By my first post of April....I am an aminal lover and have been all my life. I treat them as I'd treat a human. Because I also believe that the soul, or the spirit of an animal is as important as my own. I have lost animals that were my babies, do I know that they exist past this life...damn right I do. They were there for me in life, they will be there in death as well.
Everything deserves that right...the right to exist and to be seen as worthy. Right or wrong? This isn't philosophical, this isn't even religious in nature...to me it is simply a question of belief...and before i get too many people saying belief is religion...it is and it isn't. You might believe in Santa and not believe in God. You might believe in Buddah, and not believe in Jesus. It is the freedom of religion...God, Muhammad, Budda, Nature, Gods/Goddesses, prophets, saints, mystics, or even the belief in nothing at all...you are allowed any of those, all of those or none of those.
To the people who say animals have no spirit, no soul...talk to the Native Americans..they would disagree. If you believe that animals mean nothing...look into the eyes of a dog or a cat in a shelter that is about to be put down...you are going to kill an innocent creature for what reason? For, no reason at all....if that person who does that is a believer in God or whatever Higher Power he/she knows....aren't they committing murder? Just my simple thoughts tonight. I will have more to come.

From The Mouths Of Idiots

Okay, so just read a post about every freaky christians best friend, Pat Robertson, where he called homosexuality a form of "demonic posession"...give me a fucking break! Demonic possession...okay, I have heard some pathetic statements in my time from some true bigots, but that one takes the cake! To criticize someone elses lifestyle like that is not only pathetic, it just goes to show that apparently good old Pat hasn't got a dick that would satisfy an ant let alone the dried up crone he calls a wife!
To demean and disrespct another human beings life makes you no better than scum...sounds like you and your new bedfellow Kirk Cameron have yet more hate to spread...you sir are no better than the KKK or the Aryans who destroyed, raped, and murdered innocent people because of their own hated. You sir, are no better than Hitler, a man so prejudiced that his actions, and the actions of his followers let to the death of 6 million people! You pathetic, racist, sorry ass motherfucker...you deserve to burn in hell for your thoughts and your actions..."demonic possession"? Really? Well then guess what, I am happy to live and communicate and be freinds and love the people you call demons....Rot in hell Patty boy, i hope you and your WBC cronies will enjoy your new home.
