Hepzuba. It is a deliberate misspelling of Hephzibah, a queen mentioned in the Old Testament of the Bible. In this chapter, God speaks to his nation. He tells them that although they will go into captivity and be at several nations’ mercy, he will not forsake them forever. They will not go by the name “Desolate” for long. Instead, they will go by the name Hephzibah. The name means, “My delight is in her.” Think about those last five words.

Perhaps somebody sat them down and said that as solo artists, they are nobodies, but as Oasis, they have success. So either grow up and start behaving like adults, or do a great acting job and pretend to be grown ups. Regardless, I wish them luck.

The advancements in the medical field are nothing less than astounding. For instance, I have had two arthroscopies done on my left knee, my right knee was rebuilt after I tore my anterior cruciate ligament to shreds, both my hips are artificial, and my left elbow was cut open and cleaned out. Add to that eight broken bones, a car crash that made my spine go S shaped instead of straight (from a frontal X-ray), and oh yeah, 13 years ago I cut my leg open with a chainsaw. You'd think that I should be in a wheelchair, but earlier today I was out riding my Waverunner, and playing in the backyard with Rocky when I got home. Caevan, you're going to go from "There's not much we can do" to "your eyesight won't be perfect, but it will be better than it was before".

Life, by Keith Richards. I have read Keith's autobiography about six times now, and it fascinates me every time.

Some years back a guy named Drew invited me to see and hear his band at a local club. They played rather well, the lead singer had good charisma and knew how to get the audience excited, but they all dressed like factory workers who walked in off the street for a beer and hopped on stage. I told Drew that if he wants to be a rock star, he needs to look like one on stage. It doesn't have to be elaborate, it just has to say "Hey, look at me, I'm not some bum off the street wearing a black Marshall t shirt (which he did), I'm a guitarist in an up and coming band." Sadly, the singer fell victim to Lead Singer's Disease, and they broke up.

I was wondering about him as well. I hope he's simply taking some time off due to summertime.

Oddly enough, I have never used or spent so much as a penny for either cocaine or hookers. I am such a cheapskate.

I know a few guys who would look at that and say "I can make that".

But can you sit comfortably on that?

Or like the guy that used to buy stuff from me that I imported from the manufacturer in China, and he would put "Made in the USA" stickers on them and sell them for more than three times what he paid. And don't think he is the only one who does that.

Relic'ing is like showing off a medal or a trophy that you didn't earn.

This guitar looks like an old beat up piece of crap. If I am going to pay a lot of money for a new guitar, I expect it to look like a new guitar. I am perfectly capable of putting a lot of wear and tear on anything (including my own body), so why should I pay more for someone else to make a new guitar look beat up? As far as the sound of the guitar, I wasn't impressed. It just didn't sound "Wow" to me.

I don't know Joe Walsh personally, otherwise I would call him up and ask him if he was dead. But, I just did a quick search, and there is nothing that says anything about him dying. So, I would feel safe in saying that it is a hoax.
