AN ARGUMENT FOR PUBLICLY FUNDED EUTHANASIA



AN ARGUMENT FOR PUBLICLY FUNDED EUTHANASIA
An open letter to Birmingham City Mayor Larry Langford

Mayor langford needs to be put down, like a terminally sick animal, it is that simple. A man who recently owed $70,000 in clothing bills… and wears $10,000 watches… is asking the city to “humble” itself… and to petition the lord with prayer. .. asking people to walk around with their heads bowed wearing sacks and covered in ashes. This is insanity, and most likely, illegal.

How much money was spent from my sewage fees for this? Our Mayor needs to be put to sleep.

This guy could be indicted on multiple counts on any given day, and this is his grand idea? THIS is supposed to be the answer to our crime problem. He’s got mental issues. He is trying to compare himself to a biblical king, with this proclamation.

I don’t petition the lord with prayer when my car insurance goes up. I don’t petition the lord with prayer when my sewage backs up, and i don’t petition the lord with prayer to cut my city crime statistics. Anyone who does, deserves to be disappointed when nothing happens.

God didn’t bother to intervene during the european holocaust, hence i doubt he’s going to intervene in a southern mid-sized city, who’s only catalyst for reducing crime is the never ending promise of urban revitalization via our bloated, over priced, under-planned wanna-be metro-sexual loft district, which currently contains several meth addicts, numerous prostitutes and ZERO grocery stores.

Awesome.

I still want to know whatever happened to the ‘computers fo’ the childrenz.'



Here’s some bham humility for you Mr. Psycho Mayor:

I’LL PAY YOU $5 DOLLARS A DAY TO WASH MY HANDS after i use the restroom. It’ll be the only honest work you’ve done in decades. And PLEASE, Mr. Langford, increase your smoking habit from two packs a day to four. It is the only real hope this city has for progress. This behavior goes well beyond “southern eccentricity.” This guy is a nut job. It is no wonder the rest of the country laughs out loud when they think about the deep south.

republicans + killer artist + jesse payne album

this is one of the best clips i've seen regarding the election, via salon.com, could this be the real enemy ? also check this out... 1. this lady does some great art. it reminds me of some of matthew barney's work. 2. she uses dead animals. and - yep... she kills them herself. that's creepy and brilliant at the same time. here's the nathalia edenmont exhibit . and here's the rationale for the art-killings via the host gallery, wetterling. i don't really have an opinion. i just thought i should share that little art nugget. ...moving on... i got the final packaged verison of the jesse payne solo album. it was very well done. the front and back photo is of canterbury church here in birmingham. the liner book is solid white, with plain black text. very simple and clean. i like it. i'll post a pic in a few days. pay attention to rock radio in the next several weeks and you'll probably hear some promos for the album that is slated to drop in election day. ...

rubys / end scene

my good friend grey watson, with whom i play in two bands, is moving to south korea at the beginning of june for a one year teaching contract. he's in his late 20's, so this is pretty much the perfect opportunity to go abroad. this will effectively dismantle our rock trio, rubys... and will put a definite damper on through the sparks. we were planning on starting an album soon, but everyone stayed in a holding pattern until we knew what grey was going to do. now hopefully we can at least record some live demos of the new material so it doesn't get lost. at some point we might release the ep we recorded as a 5 piece at jody nelson's house in early 2010. at my age, i don't think in terms of years anymore. they go by too fast. 5 years ago, i was already recording with the spots. life moves pretty fast. anyway... so rubys will be going out in a blaze of glory. we have two shows lined up with the grenadines - one at the nick in birmingham and one somewhere in tuscaloosa...

through the sparks darfur concert clips

mark nelson, jody neslon's brother... has posted some youtube clips of the set we played during the darfur benefit show. i'm the black speck in the left corner. you can see me rocking the tamborine on a few of these. everytime i played keys or guitar i seem to vanish. even the huge black grand piano seems to be absent. great show. great sound. huge crowd. lots of fun. and i think we saved africa... ha. through the sparks proper - greg, jody, the mimikakis brothers and james... all played with a great sense of groove during this set. i had time to listen... great stuff. several new songs were played during the set. like a dove , buddy holly's gun , vampires , turn everything off . the set not only featured chad fisher, gary wheat and myself... but also featured a 7 minute multi-percussionist ensemble, which you can see the beginnings of, on the clip buddy holly's gun . the horn hook on like a dove is pure magic. the horns also sound fantastic on the final if and...
