2 Dollar Productions

Well, it would appear that my normally technology-deficient sibling has been running circles around me in the blog arena and making me look like a fucking fool. No matter. I imagine I can easily rectify this problem by instituting a 25% decrease in my Midget Porn watching schedule. This should free me up to write more often as well as squash the frightened looks that Bre has been sending me more and more frequently.

For those 2 or 3 unfortunate souls who accidently stumble across this corner of the blog universe, I would like to announce with great enthusiasm that Steve Earle will be gracing the city of Austin tonight and yours truly will be in attendence. Despite the fact that Earle has become extremely political over the last few years, he and The Dukes still put on one hell of show and still rip up the stage with some of the older songs.

Also, it has recently come to my attention that Ray Wylie Hubbard will be coming to the Cactus Cafe in a week or so, and that James McMurtry is still putting on his Midnight shows at the Continental Club. These two fellows are currently, I would say, at the top of the Texas Country Music chain and they are still getting stronger. Much happiness to be seeing them all again.

These show will hopefully regenerate my mind which has been turned into goddamn mush by the vicious editing and formatting project that I have been working on of late. A project that has been stalled and thwarted by worthless, broken automobiles, nefarious felines and savage work deadlines all last week.

A parting nonsequitur: I have noticed many sites carrying the new pictures of Britney Spears walking around on her balcony topless. I just can't see the intrigue in this. Honestly. Looking at those pictures is like running into a girl, who you remember being really hot in highschool, at a a stripclub, where she is working as a now-overweight cocktail waitress. Sure, its kinda funny. Slightly amusing. But mostly. It is. Just. Sad.
