"Whether or not you are a country music fan, these are truly the words of a deep thinker, and a highly intelligent person. So simple, yet so profound! Read the words of wisdom from that famous philosopher Willie Nelson, iconic country and western singer, on his 75th birthday below his esteemed portrait. Only a man with such wisdom and maturity could be so concise and succinct in phrasing his feelings at this turning point in his life."

"I have outlived my pecker."

The Penis Poem--by Willie Nelson
My nookie days are over,
My pilot light is out.
What used to be my sex appeal,
Is now my water spout.
Time was when, on its own accord,
From my trousers it would spring.
But now I've got a full time job,
To find the f***in' thing.
It used to be embarrassing,
The way it would behave.
For every single morning,
It would stand and watch me shave.
Now as old age approaches,
It sure gives me the blues.
To see it hang its little head,
And watch me tie my shoes!!

OMG….

I saw bright stars early this morning. Sounds like a stupid statement, but because of light and smoke pollution there are nights when you can only see the very brightest stars from the Verde Valley in Arizona. I maintain that when we can no longer see stars from earth, the human race will become extinct.

I don’t necessarily mean extinct like the dinosaurs; what I mean is dead emotionally and spiritually. Viewing the heavens has been part of mans growth from the very beginning of time. They (the stars) have sparked our imaginations and given impetus to our spiritual growth down through the ages.

I remember growing up in southern California and seeing beautiful, bright stars clear down to the horizon. The sight never ceased to amaze me and I always felt small and insignificant, but at the same time the Milky Way always inspired me and made me feel close to my God. Without this inspiration, the human race will truly lose the most compelling proof that there is something vastly more important and mighty than our egos make us out to be.

I don’t fear the end of the Mayan calendar, Nostradamus or Armageddon. There are a million ways for life to end and end it must – that is the way of things. What I fear is losing my humanity before I pass on. My hope is we can all look up at billions of bright stars in the universe as we prepare to leave our beautiful blue planet.

I’m just saying,

Time Machine

A friend sent me a blast from the past and I thought it would be nice to share. If you think about it, cameras are really time machines. The pictures they take help us travel mentally to another time and place as real in our minds as you reading this blog."Perception is all there is - Manage it! There is no reality!" Tom Peters.

Hold on to your toupee, here we go....

The Beatles
I still love their music!

Brigitte Bardot
Yes, I still love BB!

Angelina Jolie and Dad
Holy crap, she has always had cow lips!

Marlon Brando
Was he ever that young?

Cher, Sonny Bono, Bob Dylan
Was I ever that young?

George Clooney
What a freaking dweeb!

Sean Connery
No way!

Elvis and Dad
He is still The King!

Clint Eastwood and first wife
His personal life sucked, but what a career!

MM and JFK
This photo is for those of you that doubted.

Jane Fonda
I hate the traitor bitch, but then again...one night would have been good!

Elton John
Music Man always....

Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith
Whoa! Thirteen will get you fifty!!

Madonna
Was she ever that innocent?

Jane Seymour and Freddie Mercury
I have met the delightful Jane, but not the very repulsive Freddie.

And last, but not least....
Star Wars
I didn't know Star Wars had three midget stars!

Hope you had a nice time machine trip. I know I did....

Write on,
