My big little Embarassing Moment

I just mistook a poster of Jesus for a poster of Che the revolutionary. I feel like a bit of an Idiot for talking before thinking and yeah, I'm an educated idiot.

Blue Skies for Everyone

Spit on the ground hold your breath
Try and scare yourself to death
Bury your bones under the dirt
Tear your heart out rip your shirt
Stomp your feet in disgust
Curse the gray sky if you must
But you'll find when you are done
They'll be blue skies for everyone

Drink your wine break your heart
Give up the race before you start
Drop your drawers roll around
Burn your house right to the ground
Go to sleep hit your head
Scream until your face is red
And you'll find when you are done
They'll be blue skies for everyone

Blue skies setting suns
Cherry pies bubblegum
Lullabies to come undone
Blue skies for everyone

So get right down on your luck
Spin your wheels until you're stuck
Wring the blood out let it dry
Stick a needle in your eye
Dry your tears and drop your drink
Let me tell you what I think
I think you'll find when you get done
They'll be blue skies for everyone

Robert Burns

O' thou my muse! Guid auld Scotch Drink
Inspire me, 'till I lisp an' Wink
To sing thy name...

O' Whisky! Should O' plays an' Pranks
Accept a Bardie's grateful thanks!

Robert Burns (1757-1796) "Scotch Drink"


Today, January 25th is the Day of Scottish Pride. The day of whisky...

Tribute to the Queen of Hearts

The Queen of hearts and Alice spoke one day. They spoke, they jested and they played croquet with the penalty of death. Alice would lose and Alice would run.

Alice would run to the door, leading out of Neverland, the Queen at her heals but not gaining. At a point, Alice noticed that the door became no closer as she ran, nor did the Queen and her Aces gain on Alice. She saw the Cheshire Cat and asked, though short of breath, why the no one could win this race?

The cat, one step ahead of Alice, replied as coolly as ever, "you must run Alice, you must run as fast you possibly can just to stay in this race. You will never reach the door, no, no you will never reach the door, Alice. But if you are to slow your pace or goodness forbid, stop, you will be caught by the Queen. Always remember that you must run as fast as possible to keep your position in this race."
