Piece of Shit

Not that I’m surprised, but I’m still pissed… Turns out that weasel of a Governor of ours has vetoed the gay marriage bill placed on his desk. It turns out basic civil rights aren’t a priority in our state any more than they are in our federal government… *sigh*… Perhaps its time to move to Germany after all…

Not that he had much of a chance anyway - but he sure ain’t getting a vote from me come election time (or a movie ticket dollar when they kick his sorry ass out of Sacramento)…

Cat’s in the Cradle

On the way into work I was listening to my favorite CD full of songs I liked from when I was a kid. Songs like ‘House at Pooh Corner‘ by Kenny Logins, ‘Cat’s in the Cradle‘ by Harry Chapin, and a bunch of others of that ilk. I just love those songs - they’re great to sing along with and have so many memories for me.

Cat’s in the Cradle in particular is one of those ones that has such strong happy memories for me from my childhood and lots of people don’t get it. Kevin cringes every time he hears it cuz it strikes him as such a sad song about a neglectful father and son who just can’t seem to make any time for each other… Maybe i’m just a wierdo but I just don’t read it that way. I just see it as a song about a father and son that are connected from birth until death and, despite everything that goes on throughout life they still love each other and are connected no matter how busy they get or whats going on and get a lot out of every chance they have to talk…

Wow… How was that for sappy… Anyway… just had to share! :)… Read blelow
