Stuff You May Have Missed...That I Hope You Didn't - Part Four

The "real" world still taking up my time so here's more stuff you may have missed...

"I AM A HUMAN 'BEING', NOT A HUMAN 'DOING'"!!! - PART TWO

More on my recurring theme that we should devote out time to valuable pursuits rather than occupying our time with menial tasks. This is a difficult point for me to get across and I'm still trying to find the right way.

Here's a few of my attempts.

Someday I'll get it right.

- UNCLE JEFFY & ROOMMATE MIKE - "WAITING FOR GODOT!" -

...Like Vladimir and Estragon...

...some parts of our life are like we're 'Waiting for Godot'.

Life is really not lived on the peaks or in the valleys...it's all about the in-betweens.

With a special nod to Charles Schulz for all those great strips with Charlie Brown and Linus leaning on the brick wall, asking and answering the important questions.

- NEW YEARS RESOLUTION -

The beginning of a new year. A time of renewal, a time of re-examination of ones self. A time a lot of us choose to resolve to make changes in our lives:

I almost made it a full 60 seconds there. Maybe next year.

- DRINK HOLE DIALOGUE ON CHANGING MEDIA -

It's not the medium that counts, but what gets done with them. People sometimes get nostalgic for the tools used rather than what was built with them.

Ahhhh justice is blind...and she works at the Drink Hole!

- YOU CAN MAKE THE MOST OF IT -

No matter what you do. No matter how clumsily or how miniscule. If it's coming from the heart, no one should try and belittle it.

Wisdom from Dan Reeder:

I know what you're all thinking out there: "Hey Jeff...why are you singing and playing guitar on here when you're as rhythmically and tonally challenged as you are?"

My answer?: "'Cause I like to!"

You may even be a person who likes to sing and everyone around you cringes at the sounds emanating from you.

My answer?: "To Hell with them!"

Music's a magic thing that makes people feel good. There was a time before mp3's, before CD's, before cassette tapes, vinyl records, 8-track tapes, reel-to-reel tapes, copper cylinders and magnetic wire, when people made their own music on their front porches and back yards.

And everyone had a good time. It was a form of communication.

This post is a love song for everyone who likes to bang on an instrument or sing in the shower. Written by Dan Reeder, it tells us that you should make the most out of the simplest of songs and no one should laugh at you. And what they can do if they do if they object.

See y'all tomorrow!

"Hey Jeff, why'd you get hoity toity with the post title in Italian?"

My answer?: "Just makin' the most out of a simple song...and you know what you can do."

Now...everybody sing.
