Streaming On A Computer Near You
I am the one American who does not own a TV. There was a time I was not alone in this concept. I knew this guy who worked full time but he was so in love with his music that he played guitar 30-40hrs a week on top of his work load. His name was Daveed and he moved to Spain. Of course, I’d share a characteristic of someone who would not live on American soil. I’m not 100% exempt from American culture. I read magazines. I read at least three articles from the paper everyday and I admit to drinking Starbucks. Of course this is a long drawn out introduction into the real idea I wanted to elaborate on. Sometimes when I reach for pop references I’m more at a loss than others are due to my sheltered life. So, what was that damn cartoon? Binkey and The Brain???? You know the one that had this dumb rat and this smart rat which = The Brain. “…my plot of taking over the world.” ????? O.k., so I’m going to be a DJ on the Metro Radio!!!! Or at least I hope to bring my new syndicated hour to the graces of Metro’s campus. I chicken scratched in my application and will hopefully be called for an interview. (I’m sure that means I’m going to have to call the man in charge and push for the interview.) Long story short…Today it’s the Metro station (a station one can only get on our campus or streaming on the computer) and tomorrow it’s the world. I’m weird, “I’m poor and I’m weird baby...” The Briefs. That’s why I never understand the breaking up of some bands. I pick up my guitar and jam through the 10 of mine that I actually have memorized, put me in front of a mirror and kick up the distortion and I feel like a rock star. This is probably because everything especially my art/music comes hard to me. It takes me at least three times longer than the average person to figure stuff out…but that’s just it I eventually figure it out, just a day late and $$$ short. I love music and I don’t care if my show reaches two people. I’m excited to bring, “The Power of Pop” to the world. This is something I can pour my heart into.

That would be a sweet gig...being a DJ. Hell yea I'm gonna take your suggestion and dance nekkid. It sounds like too much fun not to! Now if only I could find someone to keep me company...heeheehee...
It's Pinky and the Brain. Used to love that cartoon. Well, the Anamanics in general. Hardly ever watch TV anymore, though I do own one. Well, someone gave it to me. Really small screen and there's paint on it from what I don't know.
