Thinking of my Dad...

Today marks six year anniversary of my Dad's passing, he (Jim Smith) had to have his leg amputated five weeks earlier on 3/18/04 due to diabetes... Dad had broken his foot prior to the amputation and the velcro cast caused a sore that would not heal and kept getting worse, he passed away on April 23, 2004 from complications (infection) of the amputation causing his cardiac arrest.

RIP Zachary Kitty :(

So very sad to say, our beloved Zachary Kitty passed away last night... she was 18 years old.

Zachary Kitty - 1992 - 4/22/10 :(

Listening to... Cake - Short Skirt, Long Jacket

"She's changing her name from Kitty to Karen. She's trading her MG for a white Chrysler La Baron..."



The theme song for "Chuck" on NBC is Cake's
"Short Skirt, Long Jacket" - Lyrics

I want a girl with a mind like a diamond
I want a girl who knows what's best
I want a girl with shoes that cut
And eyes that burn like cigarettes
I want a girl with the right allocations
who is fast and thorough and sharp as a tack,
She is playing with her jewelry, she is putting up her hair
She is touring the facility
and picking up slack
I want a girl with a short skirt and a
looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong jacket

I want a girl who gets up early
I want a girl who stays up late
I want a girl with uninterrupted prosperity
Who uses a machete to cut through red tape
With fingernails that shine like justice
And a voice that is dark like tinted glass
She is fast, thorough and sharp as a tack,
She is touring the facility and picking up slack
I want a girl with a short skirt and a looooooong,
loooooooooooooooooooooooooong jacket

Nananananananananananananananananana

I want a girl with smooth liquidation
I want a girl with good dividends
At Citi Bank we will meet accidently
We will start to talk when she borrows my pen
She wants a car with a cup holder armrest
She wants a car that will get her there
She is changing her name from Kitty to Karen
She is trading her MG for a white, Chrysler LeBaron
I want a girl with a short skirt and a
looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong jacket

Black Rock Album Gets A Rave Review!

Joe Bonamassa and Kevin Shirley have a good thing going. Each year they get together for a few weeks and record a new album. I don’t know how they do it, but they’ve got the process down to a science. Which is not to say that the records sound rushed.
