One Track Mind (To Make Money)

What kind of name is Uncle Samurai?

He says he's Black and Japanese. Hmmmm...I bet the women think that's exotic or somethin'. I don't really know. I'm blind. You would have to tell me. What I DO know is that Black and Japanese are two very different cultures to be swimmin around up in somebody's head for a life time. This cat must have a very unique perspective on life. Can you imagine being Black and Japanese...at the same time?! You can actually tell by the kind of music that comes out of his mind.
This song "One Track Mind" It's got a hard hittin' dancehall style beat underneath. Which the brothaz and sistaz are familiar with. And then the words are strategic and thoughtful and make you think about everything and everybody. But there aint a lot of words. And the topic is centered at the heart of American idealism. But not offensive. Which them Japanese folks are good at. You know...like them Haikus and stuff.

And...there aint one cuss word in the song. And I was bracin' my ear holes for some.

Hmmph...maybe this Uncle Samurai is alright...

John Mayer apologizes for using the word N****? Why?

MAYER: My two biggest hits are 'Your Body Is a Wonderland' and 'Daughters.' If you think those songs are pandering, then you'll think I'm a douche bag. It's like I come on very strong. I am a very…I'm just very. V-E-R-Y. And if you can't handle very, then I'm a douche bag. But I think the world needs a little very. That's why black people love me.

PLAYBOY: Because you're very?

MAYER: Someone asked me the other day, 'What does it feel like now to have a hood pass?' And by the way, it's sort of a contradiction in terms, because if you really had a hood pass, you could call it a n***** pass."

So? What is the big deal? He was explaining a definition. I don't think this "Apology" thing is worth our reading time. John's band is half black. His music is covering genres that black people accept. A lot of white people may be embarrassed, sure. But black folks don't really pay know mind to this kind of thing. John Mayer has not done anything but the music. Why would he be using that word now? Y'all need to relax and take that word off your brain console anyway.

We use to call it editing. That's what should have happened in the first place, Playboy...

Get on my last nerve with this topic...

Y'all need to worry about Lindsay's shins any how...

Black Friday Holiday Shopping: Call Of The Freaks!

The holiday season has started. People are prone to shopping madness about now. Folks are willing to spend the night in line at Best Buy to be first in line for a video game. Men and women alike are elbowing each other in the aisle, as they race towards that toy which will bring joy to their children. I know for a fact that right at this moment there is an altercation over a parking space that will probably go to blows...

I got the perfect song for y'all

Thanksgiving: A Holiday For The Birds

I can't look at a Thanksgiving recipe site for too long without drooling on my laptop. I do love a good turkey dinner. It doesn't have to be exactly on Thanksgiving, either! I aint too particular on that one. I love to eat. Everyday.
But on this holiday I don't forget to add to my prayers, the meaning behind Thanksgiving. The Native Americans really helped them pilgrims out and deserve recognition.

But when it comes to music...

Any bird is fine with me:

Bob Dylan Still Going Strong

" Bob Dylan's return to Berkeley, where he played one of his first electric shows with the Hawks more than four decades ago, clearly meant a great deal to Saturday's standing-room-only audience at the Greek Theatre. Where else were you going to find more people whose lives are so wholly entwined with the 68-year-old folk singer's songs of politics and personal liberation than in the city that gave the world both the Free Speech Movement and backyard hot tubs? But for Dylan, who has..." (Read more)

He's a work a holic, that Dylan. Anybody who plays that much music for that long is all right with me. A lot of people are influenced by this man...

Pandora's Box Of Confusion

"On first listen, some things grab you for their off-kilter novelty. Like the story of a company that has hired a bunch of “musicologists,” who sit at computers and listen to songs, one at a time, rating them element by element, separating out what sometimes comes to hundreds of data points for a three-minute tune. The company, an Internet radio service called Pandora, is convinced that by pouring this information through a computer into an algorithm, it can guide you, the listener, to music that you like. The premise is that your favorite songs can be stripped to parts and reverse-engineered..." (more)

Sounds more like Pandora's box...
Hmmmph....how about just playin' the damn song, listening and forming an opinion of your very own?

After that false search and rescue for this kid, they're local sheriff aint too fond of the Heene's. (story) Now they have to deal with the press. Think they're havin' fun right about now?

People start to talkin' fast. What, with all the Amber alerts goin' round, it's best to keep this kind of event on the ground.

Top Ten Sex Fantasies For Women?

Hmmm...I typed in Top Ten Women into the computer and

Top Ten Female Sex Fantasies

"If you think women don’t sit around fantasizing about very naughty things, think again..."
( ok...I'm thinking...)

# 10 Domination (her dominating you) -Women love a big strong man who can sweep them off their feet and carry them into the sunset... (I'm big and strong)

#9 Domination (you dominating her) -The advent of the metrosexual is most commonly blamed for this top 10 female sex fantasy. It seems that...(continue reading Top Ten Female Fantasies article)

Whatever...back in my day, we KNEW they wuz always thinkin' 'bout it. And it was up to us to say somethin' real to 'em. Write some poetry. Or a letter. Talk to them before they start talkin that crazy talk...go on a long romantic walk with them on the river...if it's romantic and you are there, then assume the fantasie is about you!
Or...
Write a song about her.
That's my favorite way to find out about them female fantasy thingamajigs...

How To Be Guitar King

Hey y'all...how ya doin' in these here rough times? Got plenty to do? Good. Keep yourself busy and you won't get to worryin' about things that don't need worryin' about. Take it from somebody who grew up in some hard times. Early America...where a blind man might a seen more trouble than y'all could ever imagine. So keep yourself busy. Ya got plenty a toys and things to entertain yourself. Laptops, phones, mp3 players. Video games. Just keep your mind occupied while you work at something. That's exactly what I did. And it worked out for me. If a blind man can make a living, then that's proof enough that America is a land of opportunity. So create your dream with the passion you were born with. Or whatever it is you need to do. And do it. Don't sit around talkin' about somethin' you aint done yet. Talk about somethin' ya already done did. But not for too long. Make somebody's ear fall off, if you talk too much about yourself. Just do the darn thing. Old Tommy did it. He ended up a guitar King...
