WHAT DO I KNOW

Congratulations to Fresno State Athletics receiving an invitation to be apart of the Mountain West Conference and diving in head first. Also the same to the Nevada Wolf Pack Athletics.

To Fresno State Athletics,

Stop acting like the promiscuous girl who will go out with the first guy who asks. Let's not forget that these are the same teams who left you in the middle of the night just like the original Colts and Browns did in the pros. And then as a new league started to berate the WAC for being a conference of "1AA teams who couldn't hold their own". Then of course, the times when the MWC put out the proverbial carrot to dang out in front of you by saying we might expand and then snatch it back. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. They did it I don't know how many times but I got tired of it. The MWC is a tired up league that is lucky they have money and good television contracts. Maybe this is a good move for FSU Bulldogs, but you better be ready. And since this is mostly about football, Hill - your team better be ready for this season to go out with a bang or those players are not going to have the right mind set. Personally, I think they haven't had the right mind set since the loss to Reggie Bush & USC (I wanted to put something else but I'm afraid I would get sued, plus WHAT THE HELL DOES KIM KARDASHIAN SEE IN HIM?! [DELETE]) I hope the team has players who REALLY want to play and coaches who REALLY want to coach these players and come up with a better game plan.

I agree with the Nevada Wolfpack Athletic Director Cary Groth that expenses to travel to Hawaii and Louisiana Tech can be very costly. In this day and age of everybody tightening their belts and wallets, for both FSU and Nevada, I hope this works out. If not, anything can happen. Think positive.

THOUGHTS.......................................................

Making movies is hard.

Life gets in the way of Art.

[DELETE]

If I took out my earplugs, would I have played softer? (Maybe)

These are rock songs and they are meant to be played loud, even in the smallest of places. Okay, I know I'm nuts but "Sugar, Sugar" should be heard at 10,000 decibels just like "Pour Some Sugar On Me".

[DELETE], I need to practice more.

Man, it is hot.

Darkness surrounds my head, I need to get out of this funk.

Funk is cool music.

Tired, until next time...

THE BAND, QUEEN, WOULD BE PROUD OF ME

For the last three months, I have been making an effort of taking a bike ride in the morning. Yes, that's right the pedal bike, not the motorized (not yet). So far, I'm only going around the neighborhood. The streets are still a ways away, even though, there are newly flesh painted bicycle lanes nearby, at the sacrifice of two driving lanes. But the streets receive a new middle turn lane, so that now driving morons can rejoice at the fact they can hit each in the front instead of in the back. And also what has resulted is the slow down of the speed limit even though the posted speed limit has stayed the same. Which is why I am really pissed off at the F'N Fresno City Counsel member who mandated this project and screwed up Dakota Ave. between the Chestnut Diagonal & Peach going pass the airport and Air National Guard. Every time, I see a big truck or worse, a local lawn mowing business truck and trailer getting in front of me either by the right turn off of Chestnut or the left turn off of the Chestnut Diagonal, I just dread it because they will drive super ass slow IN A 50 MILE PER HOUR LANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is all I ask is drive the speed limit when going through there. That simple. But I digress.....

Hey! I'm riding my bike for excercise, for fun, and Freddie Mercury, Brian May, John Deacon, & Roger Taylor would be proud of me.

BICYCLE!
BICYCLE!
I want to ride my bicycle.
I want to ride my bike.
BICYCLE!
BICYCLE!

Current Update.....

My drums were played on by one of the greats in rock history. Carmine Appice instructed a masters drum class at Bentley's Drum Shop. Carmine, as some of you know, played drums for some of the top names such as Rod Stewart, Cactus, Ozzy Osbourne, Lesley West, Blue Murder, & that reverse goldielocks 80's Hair Band, King Kobra and many many others. Plus he is the co-writer of one of the greatest disco/rock songs of the late 1970's, "Do You Think I'm Sexy?". That song was so popular, one of the teeny bopper mags (probably Tiger Beat) durning that time had a "Win a Date with Carmine Contest". But I digress.....Carmine put on a great class, he liked my drums and cymbals, especially the 22" Prototype Sabian Ride Cymbal, which I believe is a hybrid of AAX and HHX. Made me miss playing on them.
