  • In Debt We Are Swimming.

    If the story of life was written as a book, I would read it over and over again, and probably still not understand it. One thing though I would learn is never pay more for anything than you have to, especially if it makes others rich for doing basically nothing. When I was a kid,… Read more

  • O.A.P (Openly Attacking Parasites)

    Before I start my intro for today’s post, If a billionaire (Worth just one billion) is fine three million Dollars that is 0.3% of their wealth. Thats 30 cents out of a hundred Dollars. A certain Mark Zuckerberg has an estimated net worth of 225 billion Dollars. I have a job being a pensioner. It’s… Read more

  • Eyes Wide Open.

    I wish I had the skill or ability to put the right post on, on the right day. Today’s was accidentally published on the 21st, what a maroon! so had to come up with something else. Not had any Dylan quotes recently, this one from “Foot of Pride” From the album “Infidels” fits nicely. “He… Read more

  • Tangled Up In Lead.

    Maybe not the most confident person, but the most confident dog. If you haven’t read “The Grand Dog” it follows the new one written from his owners point of view this time. Inspired by Bob Dylan’s “Tangled Up in Blue” from the Blood on the Tracks album TANGLED UP IN LEAD I was staring out… Read more

  • The Artist Billy the Kid.

    I don’t struggle with negative feelings, and definitely never touch the live. I am though down to earth. I feel a little bit of Dylan coming on “When you’re lost in the rain in Juarez and it’s Easter time too, your gravity fails and negativity won’t pull you through” From “Just like Tom Thumb’s blues,… Read more

  • Changing of the Guards.

    I write, I build my model cars, I work on our house, but just at the moment I want to shout, another part of my world is going, because of apathy. I can’t say what it is at the moment but it’s going to leave a massive hole in my life. I can almost see… Read more

  • Worthy or Unworthy.

    I don’t consider myself, clever enough, skilled enough or lucky enough (As is the case with most autobiographers) for me to think people would want to read about me. The first line then maybe should read “If you are reading this, get a life”. I would much sooner write about others, mostly bringing to light… Read more

  • They’re No Good The Cards That You’re Holding, Unless They’re From Another World.

    Title, a line from Bob Dylan’s Series of Dreams. I love the idea that the only way some people can win is if their luck comes from some other world or dimension. It somehow gives weight to the theory that many world leaders and mega Rich are actually aliens, just take a look into the… Read more

  • I Work in a DIY Shop Babe, Can’t Buy a Thrill.

    Title line stolen and mangled from Bob Dylan’s “It takes a lot to laugh, it takes a train to cry” Apart from the “F” word, it would have to be “Amazing” It is so over used, a real cliche, “Perfect” is closing in on the rails, but I still think it will be pipped at… Read more

  • The Law is an Ass, and so am I.

    “Fools making laws for the breaking of jaws, and the sound of the keys as they clink, and there’s no time to think” From Bob Dylan’s “No Time to Think” From the album “Street Legal” Enough of the serious of the last week or so, back to my nonsense, but it does have a sting… Read more
