Let’s see what’s rolling around in my head, shall we? A one anna two anna …
1) The controversy that a certain magazine finds itself embroiled in might surprise some people, but it’s not a shock for those who’ve watched as the Rock & Roll Hall of Shame regularly embarrasses itself by inducting non-rock performers while ignoring some of the greatest artists and bands to ever grace a stage. You see, Jann Wenner is both the publisher of said rag of magazine AND widely considered the driving force behind making the Rock hall a consistent comedy of errors. A lot of us have known this guy was a clueless twit for quite a while now.
2) I’m running out of words, phrases and euphemisms to describe heavy rain. “Frog-strangler”, gully washer”, “good weather for ducks”, “downpour”, “monsoon”, “raining buckets” … I think I’ve used them all in the last few weeks. Have I missed some good ones? Feel free to share your favorites ’cause I don’t think there’s going to be a shortage of chances for me to use them any time soon.
3) If I had known just how frequently and severely being a grownup was going to suck, I think I probably would have actually lived a good bit harder in my youth than I actually did. Not exactly a happy thought, but after traipsing my balding self up the driveway in a steady rain to once again put the ol’ curbside container out for the garbageman I think it’s a pretty reasonable reaction.
