2020 strikes again...

 when my mother told me this afternoon that Eddie Van Halen had died, i was crushed. i remember seeing him when i was a child and was fascinated with how he played guitar. i remember being in a garage band in high school and i always thought of my good friend Tony as Eddie and i was on bass being Michael Anthony. i can still recall the day we learned how to play Runnin' With The Devil and it actually sounded like the record. i hate fucking cancer. i hate that one of the greatest guitarists EVER had to die from it. thank you so damn much for the soundtrack to my youth.

the New York Yankees won Game 1 last night, defeating Tampa 9-3. the offense keeps on clicking. hopefully that continues tonight with Deivi Garcia on the mound.

Big Brother was good last night.

The Third Day was crazy last night and thankfully, the last scene made the whole episode make sense.

We Are Who We Are was very good last night.

Fringe Nation was excellent last night. i wish everyone would get to watch this show, but of course, that won't happen in this country.

Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight.

i wrote 5 poems today while mom was getting her injection into her back. i typed them up this afternoon and really like all of them. i am going to try to get some poems together for my first submissions of the month this weekend.

the NHL Draft is tonight. i'm really hoping the New York Rangers don't fuck this up.

Game 4 of the NBA Finals is tonight as well.

i should be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

wear your mask.

la música de un dios de la guitarra nunca muere
