CRISPINS CRITTERS

[AU24K]

Initiative?

Yeah, I love to create beauty!


Here's inspiration from my Mom's rings....
We always agreed upon aesthetics....


I appraised each ring to my Mom, before purchase.
(Still have specs on each)

I still believe we did "OK"....

My favorite?
The middle....
Multi-Contrast of colors....So Beautiful....


Best,

Scott

Ah, Damn! Now I'm cryin'....



Full Screen?



"Don't be a FOOL.....Do it!"


"Crying In The Rain"

A black cat moans
When he's burning with the fever
A stray dog howls
When he's lonely in the night
A woman goes crazy
With the though of retribution
But, a man starts weeping
When he's sick and tired of life

I keep on dreaming dreams of tomorrow
Feel I'm wasting my time
Lighting candles in the wind,
Always taking my chances
On the promise of the future
But, a heart full of sorrow
Paints a lonely tapestry

The sun is shining
But, it's raining in my heart

No one understands the heartache,
No one feels the pain,
'Cos no one ever sees the tears
When you're crying in the rain,
When you're crying in the rain,
Crying in the rain...

I can never deny
All the sweet things I have tasted
Tho' I've been mistreated,

I keep coming back for more,

I know where I'm going
There's no hope of absolution
I can't seem to separate
The good times from the bad

The sun is shining
But, it's raining in my heart

No one understands the heartache,
No one feels the pain,
'Cos no one ever sees the tears
When you're crying in the rain,
When you're crying in the rain,
When you're crying in the rain,
When you're crying in the rain

The sun is shining
But, it's raining in my heart

No one understands the heartache,
No one feels the pain,
'Cos no one ever sees the tears
When you're crying in the rain,
When you're crying in the rain,
When you're crying in the rain,
When you're crying in the rain

Crying in the rain...

Heh, Heh....See how clues may lead?

Find the right words; find the right clues.....Make the connection...Dig?
Maybe find a treasure....

Best to all,

Scott



PS.
Can't wait to travel after my graduation this Spring.........

OK, Fellow music affectionados,

30 some years ago, a Saturday night,
I was in Germany.
Yeah, it was cold....In my bunker....

Field service usually sucks....

I was on back-up SAT-BAF team,
(http://fas.org/man/dod-101/navy/docs/swos/ops/73PT13/tsld044.htm)


(I served at a Nike Nuke Site, before this guy's book....)

And them punks, from the Red Army Faction, had just robbed a nearby polizei station of automatic weapons. Rut Row!
No further details will be released.

I did my job and ate from cold C-Rats that night....Glad that I had my P38....
Sittin' with that M-60 an' a thousand rounds....

Afterwards, I was named to the Company's Special Forces.

To this day, I have no problem eating from a can....



And, I was stayin' alive....

[Togreenfeet]

May the fires of hell crackle and smell
With the flesh of the man
That says I can't
We can SGT

That trumps my adopted "onward through the haze".

Music means a lot to me. This tells a story of someone I once loved, cared for and well took a bad path. But here it is in music...........

Brother,

I've read your post more than a few times and finally decided to post this Story....

Back in the 80's, I had met a girl, a coupla years younger than me, who was a struggling guitarist and thought that she could sing....
I still can't sing. But I can write, compose and play!

We soon moved in together to work on music and share rent.

She had an ADORABLE 4 year old, named Kenny.

Well, me and Kenny became fast Friends.
I'd walk him to pre-school in the morning and be there when he got out.

He called me, "Daddy."

Then, things changed.

After being on stage a couple of times, the dynamics of the "relationship" changed.

I now can understand, having attended psychology courses....

She felt that she was better than me and one afternoon after the studio, it was over.

That quick.

I sure miss Kenny....

He's probably what? 30 now?

Sheesh.....

Hope All are Well, Warm and Safe!

Best,

Scott

What other tools you get?


Sent from a spun out toilet paper tube (one ply)!

Just a bunch of misc. sockets, ratchets, wrenches, extensions and misc.
All name brand like Craftsman, Blackhawk, etc.


And a decent jack stand.

I think that I did OK...

Except I don't need more tools!

But, Hey!
A good deal is a deal, right?!

Best,

Scott

 

[AU24K]

I'am still interested in those guitar strings bro.
D'Addario is my current fav. My Jackson guitars (Made famous and actually started in part by Randy Rhoads) I have to cut off the ball/ends because of the double locking floyd rose tremolo.

Let's try a picture or two again, shall we?





I have found that when I initially post, my photos are shown.

Later perusal renders the photos to "attachments."

But!

If I edit the post, the photos are once again visible....

I certainly don't like this "On again, off again" display of pics...

How 'bout you?

Best,

Scott

 

[AU24K]

Sittin' here, thinkin' 'bout you dear, and I got a rush on love.

Some call it a dope deal, all people call it rough I don't think I'll freak out no more, I've tried enough of that stuff Some people tried it one time, second time's high or low The third time it will make you weak, the fourth will make you slow.

Now, our Friend, UZD's post of a You Tube video appears to me as a link, not a picture to click upon.

What can all of this mean?

Subtle nuances?

Folks,

This was David Bowie's last live concert....he had a heart attack at this show and packed it in....a very powerful performance.

So many Friends have passed....

So many great voices now silent....

Never fail to show your Love.
Never fail to show your Support.
Never fail to be a Friend.

As if today is your last.
Have no regrets.
Have no unfulfilled promises.
Have no one left to call,

Friend!

Best,

Scott

And I may have a cancer....

I'm not sure it was anything other than a link when UZD posted.
An option is to leave a link vs vid..
When something changed in the un-natural chaos of something.....when trying to add URL and thus-ly a vid by copying the URL , I was now leaving a link only.
By going to top of page and clicking on the "tab" then copy , I could again post a vid..

But what of , or is peace of spirit in this life?

A friend I mended fence with, (A safety issue disputed caused a parting) was told he was no longer eligible for V.A. medical due to his wife working.
A former Nam vet..
So his lump went un-operated on. Of course not being diagnosed was part of the why.
Now it has become more than a knife can cure and chemo and radiation are on deck.
All I could offer was to suggest he seek an advocate to communicate with the V.A. as to how he was not eligible and if it was due to his wifes income.
And to propose some fishing come summer.
Just to have something down the road to consider beyond his family worries.

Those are "vintage" strings Scott. Are they rusty?

A guy I went to school with asked me the other day....What happened to that '88 Ford?
I scrapped it I told him. To many miles, to many problems.
Did you save any parts he inquired?
Of course I said....They sell great on eBay.
So.....We arranged a trade. Turns out he acquired a guitar and a pedal thing he called it.
I ended up with a BC Rich flying V...needs a complete fret job...and new in the box (dated Jul 02 made in the USA) this!
(click three times for supersize...)
