What I did on my 4th of July vacation: watched every episode of the first season of the TV series “Lost.”
I was lost on the island myself, not a bad place to be really. It might not be a bad trade, to be removed from this culture and placed on a tropical island, with plenty of coconuts, bananas, fresh water, fish and, for the daring, wild boar.
I did find myself by some water, though, for a few hours. So not a total time of staying indoors.
Everyone should check out Ken White’s ongoing exhibition at the Rutherford County Center for the Arts, intriguing and diverse style and subject matter.
Look to page 15 for more on this.
It has come to my attention lately that every decent song I’ve ever written was stolen, by Elton John. “Philadelphia Cheesesteak” was going to be my first No. 1.
Remember, the next time you’re playing poker, the royal sampler beats them all.
I have discovered the way to get a new wardrobe?wear the oldest and most ragged clothes I have and get someone to film me and submit it to “What Not to Wear.”
“Can you believe he wears these rags to go meet customers?” the nation would say.
They would hook me up with five grand to purchase a new wardrobe. But I’d soon revert to my old ways. After all, old T-shirts have an important purpose?to promote great bands, and to express which cartoon characters I like best. (I would refuse to part with my Goofy T-shirt.)
Is that not the proper philosophy of fashion?
Happy birthday to Sarah this week. If anyone can guess her age you win a free copy of The Murfreesboro Pulse.
Please do keep supporting our sponsors.
Everyone should be driving around in a new Mitsubishi Lancer with a tattoo from Heaven Lee Rose if you ask me. Sell everything you own on eBay through Onmarkets.net, eat some home cooking at Miller’s and then check out Acoustic Nights at The ’Boro. The list goes on and on.
Please keep sending us your writing as well. You see what The Pulse is all about. Whether it’s fiction, poetry, political commentary, film criticism or any goings on in the community, we’d like to see it.
It’s funny how a European country’s pride and joy can rise and fall with the kick of a football by one of their countrymen. France should be ashamed of itself. Five shootout goals in a row, most unadmirable Monsieur Goalie.
Peace
