- Say,.. if you have all the equipment out their for 4tvs have you tried to hit
- up some of the local bars or night clubs for gig?

- Adam, stay focused and hope for the Sam Ash job or something similar.
- Artists usually have a down emotional period and the emotions get released as
- great art. Michaelangelo finished the Sistine Chapel under threat of eternal
- damnation by the Pope. Now THAT was suffering dude.

- It would be stupid to go back to radio. Follow your dream. That's why
- you're going through this bullshit now anyway. It will be worth it in
- the end.

- hey man,
- stick to your guns, i admire that you are trying to get a lower paying job
- so you can keep you focus where your heart is, and if you did take a job at a
- radio station, and 4tv's started taking off, you would have to neglect your
- responsibilities at the radio station or quit, which would leave a bad
- impression on the people at the radio station, not something you want to do
- when your trying to start a career in music.

- Heya Adam!
- That is one cool UFO! Send the video to one of those "Mysteries of the Unknown"
- shows or better yet... to get some traffic on your website, see if you can ask Art Bell
- to link it to his site!
- BTW, Suz sez "Hiya"!!

- Looks like six pretty stationary bright lights to me.
- In the interest of fairness, next time the smog permits get a video from the
- SAME place of the SAME area above that roof. See if there are hills, even if
- they're way out there along the lines of convergence; or if you're on a
- balcony it could even be a valley floor with the right angle.
- Sorry...I'm having one of my allergic reactions to the
- National-Enquirer-Elvis-and-Bigfoot's-love-child-kidnapped-by-UFO-flown-by-Loc
- h-Ness-Monster-and-the-CIA-is-covering-it-up-Exclusive-Photos-Prove-Existance-
- of-Hunka-Hunka-Burnin'-Love-Child-Inside mentality. Some insecure part of me
- feels the need to state the obvious, that it was probably freeway
- construction or something requiring (a) the use of kleig lights at (b) an
- ungodly hour to avoid (c) rush hour traffic and the (d) ubiquitous southern
- California "irate armed motorist". (Time out...People's Choice
- Awards...nymphette in scanty dress...yes, we have erect nipples...but the
- collagen injection to her lips borders on hideous...OK, where was I?) On
- that clip, the lights don't rotate or seem to move at all.
- But anyway...Sunday night in Paradise, waiting for a brown rice casserole
- (one downside of marriage, as I've probably mentioned, is that when your wife
- goes on a diet, *you* go on a diet as well. Ain't McDonald's drive-thrus
- wonderful? And speaking of bad food...the California equivalent of the White
- Castle burger is the Jack-In-The-Box Taco, which is greasy and deep-fried and
- contains a teaspoon of some meat-like substance on occasion. I'm not fond of
- them, finding them bland and insubstantial compared to Castles - and it's a
- no-contest on the onion rings. But in any event, next time you have 39 cents
- or so to spare (watching the sidewalks for spare change is a good way to find
- 39 cents, unless you set up the 4TVs on a street corner and do bits for
- donations) I guess you have to try one) to finish. Stupid brown rice. I
- would've been happy with cheap short-grain stuff, it would cook in under an
- hour and I could be asleep now, but noooooo, it had to be the slowest of all
- slow cooking rices and it's been almost two and a half hours, and if she
- didn't have two sprained ankles I would've felt more like arguing the point.
- Guess we're getting ready for the flood season here in the northern part of
- the state; there's been an intermittent rain, just enough to slowly saturate
- the ground, and in the next month or so the real monsoons will start just
- when there is no place for the water to sink in anymore. Good for crawfish,
- I guess...damn, I suddenly have a craving for the jambalaya and grillades at
- Harold's Cajun on Henderson Rd in Columbus. Probably have to drive for at
- least two hours to Sacramento, more likely five hours to the Bay area, for
- something resembling Cajun food now. Not to mention a good Thai place. Only
- things around here are: (a) Mexican and (b) "California Homestyle" which is
- somewhere between Bob Evans and Denny's...run by a Mexican family. OK, and
- bad take-out Chinese, but that's as universal as McDonald's anymore and
- tastes the same regardless of where you are.
- (Tom Waits could make a song out of that. Of course it would be from the
- perspective of a hobo who probably murdered his wife and twenty-eight cats
- before lighting out, but I think he could do it).
- Anyhow, get some sleep...from the last emails I read from you, sounds like
- it's going to be a busy week. Me, another hour of cooling time on this
- casserole - which I wish I could put in the garage, but the cats are also
- (yep, even the pets...) on a diet, and they can't take advantage of a
- drive-thru. I close the door when I sleep; they're very good at hunting
- stationary targets.
