Gentle Rain

 Falls on me

All life folds backInto the seaWe contemplate eternityBeneath the vast indifference of heaven ( Warren Zevon)



not sure what exactly happened in Kansas City yesterday, but a mother of two is dead after a seemingly senseless shooting near union station at the end of the parade......and that stings.

I immediately thought back to the Red Sox incredible comeback from a 3-0 deficit against their hated rival the Yankees in the 2004 ALCS. In the chaos and mayhem and rioting around Fenway Park that ensued after the last out, a 21 year old Coed named Victoria Snelgrove was struck by a police fired rubber bullet....she later died from her injuries. The young woman was from nearby Brookline and she was a journalist major at Emerson College. She came from a family with a long line of Red Sox Faithful. I remember reading about her fate on the train to work and feeling a pit in my stomach, i thought about her dad who probably waited his whole life for a Red Sox world series, and now he would instead be burying his daughter while the city gathered in celebration. He probably wished he never shared his sports enthusiasm with his child and i am sure he never was able to enjoy their games again.......death sucks.... senseless death haunts.

don't look now but Russia is planning to take out our satellites. We know they got that idea from the camel fuckin Mullahs in Iran. They want nothing more than to bring down the worlds financial system and return the planet to the good old days of the Dark ages. As America and the West race each to a world dependent on computers, robots and Artificial Intelligence, our enemies are planning to take it all away in an instant. I hope enough of us still know how to Farm. my Advice to the Sweater Nite faithful is to stockpile Beeer, Water, Seeds and Beeer.........you said Beeer twice......i know, i like Beeer.

The past seems realer than the present to me nowI've got memories to last meWhen the sky is grayThe way it is todayI remember the times that I was happy
