i couldn't start October better than this...

 so, i was going through my emails this morning and saw one from John at The Rye Whiskey Review. he emailed me to let me know he has nominated my poem "under a cherry moon" for Best of the Net. i believe this is the third time i have been nominated in my 25 years as a published poet. if you are interested in reading that poem again, you can find it here:

the Yankees came from behind last night and defeated Toronto, 6-2. that cuts the magic number down to 2. they have a 2 game lead over Boston and Seattle. Toronto is one game behind those teams. this should be a crazy fucking final weekend for baseball. the Yankees start a series tonight at home against Tampa. if they win tonight and Boston or Seattle lose, they are in the playoffs.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

What We Do in the Shadows was hilarious last night.

Dark Side of the Ring was about FMW and Onita last night. i warned my mother before she started watching it, that there would be a ton of blood, barbed wire and crazy shit. i think the warning helped her.

Cake was fucking weird as always last night.

i did see a little of the Bengals last second win over the Jaguars. i sure hope Urban Meyer is making a ton of money. losing doesn't look good on him.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown, AEW Rampage and Real Time with Bill Maher. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on Peacock.

i did go to the bank today. thankfully, that didn't take forever. but, since it is October now, i guess it is orange barrel season again. looks like everything is under fucking construction again. joy.

i will be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays Everton in the morning. i'm really hoping to be in a good mood.

i hope everyone has a great weekend. just remember, it's never too early to start scaring the shit out of people.

thanks to everyone that checked out my latest published poems:

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay socially distant.

get the shot.

No escribo para premios, pero ciertamente no me importaría ganar uno.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

peace and chicken grease...
