that they said was coming didn't really materialize. mostly slush. But i did have a flat tire and then had to be jumped. This time of year is quite often filled with issues like that for me.
I wanted to talk about some of the music writers i have been talking to. i belong to two sites where we post songs that we write and then other members listen and comment on what they think are the strengths and weaknesses of the work.
Phil Marshall belongs to Songramp and from the very first day i joined has been one of my strongest supporters. Phil is a funny and talented song writer.I would say that he is a bluesy folk singer. his thing is to really try and get a live sound. He also is a regular contributor to the goings on with the site. Forums and such. Check out what he does.
Another person that i have actually written a few songs with is Warren Smith. Warren writes odd and interesting songs about living in the burrow's of New York. He and I also wrote three songs under the name River Rats. We both grew up along the Mississippi river back in Iowa and Minnesota and one of our songs reminded us of midsummer river festivals and the excitement of see our friends play on a big stage in the ever present "battle of the bands"
Some other Artist you might want to check out are, Tom Atwood, Steve Craig, Norman Bradley
and Mac Charles.

OK....contact!
This is the first post i have ever made. i have known about blogs for a while and have thought about them as personal journals. Lately i have realized that they are also for sharing information about very specific topics. Some become very popular and others, the vast majority, go unnoticed by everyone except family and friends, which i think is their intention.
I have also noticed that a blog or webpage has become the new resume and that is proubly the catalist for me to start this. If nothing else i can direct people i meet to this site to see my stuff.
My glasses broke the other day and i fixed them with super glue but i got two small smuges of the stuff on the right lens. At first it was really anoying but i have gotten used to them. And then it becomes anoying again.
I was listening to a show on the radio yesterday about the gap between the wages of ceo's and the hourly employee and i thought what if for one week a year companies took their entire payroll and devided it by the amount of employee's it has and paid everyone the same. I wonder what percent would recieve less money and what percent whould recieve more. I think it would be an interesting experiment.
Just a few thoughts
