It is absolutely beautiful. All of my windows are open. I get the sarcasm. But it is so great.

I am replying to myself again. My grandpa and dad didn't have all of those slight of hand books for no reason. They used the same techniques to pull money from people. It was magic! No it wasn't. There was a reason why they went to prison for mail fraud, they knew people were dumb. And well, it was the 80's, so that was rampant. Religion was and is always easy. I have respect for those that use religion to help others, but that isn't so common anymore these days. See Joel Osteen, or JRC.

I want toes. Many toes. And since he can grow them, I need more as my supply is running out. Also....
*It is like when a pastor can claim they can make a leg grow longer. It is all parlor tricks.*

I am not a religious person, but John Stroup and his ministry was pretty good. No pressure, and even as a non believer please stay away from SJR. If you are Asian, there are Asian churches in this town as well. Stay away from places that require an income statement, or need it. I would say stick to churches that help the community, especially the homeless.

I always promote Expo cuts at the shopping center of Campbell and Walnut Lawn. Where Rapid Roberts is located. Note, I am not trans. I just love going there, and they are locally owned.

You are gonna hit second winter. It sucks. Dating apps kind of suck. Or maybe I am the wrong person for them. Also, I am older than you. So my advice might not be the best. Best of luck!

Karai. Best ramen ever. I always wanted to try St. George. Also stripper steaks at Centerfolds. I can’t stand Cedars because their gravy is so floury. I love Dennys and iHop.

You are fucked. That is it. I am sorry for being rude. But you might be jacked. You can cuddle with me though for 300 a month.

Which Linux distros are you gonna start with? I always loved Slackware and SuSE. Which is OpenSuSE now. Debian was fun, and so was Gentoo. My favorites lately are Kali and Mint.

Lol I used to listen to Total Chaos as well. And yeah, things were crazy. But it was fun. The movie Suburbia was a documentary at times. But even seeing a Vaginal Discharge show would brighten me up.

It was a Gabe band. And no, I didn’t have the pleasure of the other shows. I ended up spending more time at Gene’s. I feel like I lived there for a while. Dementia Praecox was always fun.

Saw GWAR in SPR. Amazing show. That was back when Bush Jr. was president. So much fake blood. And I think my nose got broken. Maybe not completely broke.

U$MC. I missed their final show because I was out hitchhiking. Remember General Zod? I remember throwing chat rock at his member one show. That was part of the show.

Hell yeah. Couldn’t go to work on my bicycle without getting gummed up. So I left, and they all had a good time. It was a great show.

My favorite band to see live was Assuck. They played in Joplin. And there were so many angry cops there. They are or were a grindcore band from NY. They openly told the cops to fuck off. Then proceeded to light a joint and pass it through the crowd. Power in numbers sort of deal. I left. I don’t mind any of that, but uh I am an easy mark. So I left. But the music was beautiful. I don’t get too much in to 80s metal as you can tell. The style anyway.

I got to see Nile and Cannibal Corpse. Amazing to see live because the bass players were just great. Everyone was. Adeem and Mac Lethal were great. Got to see Brother Ali in Lincoln one year. That was super great.

My first concert as far back as I can remember was in Joplin. I think the coffee joint was the Java Bean? Crave and I think The Rowskabouts. My younger brother and I were latch key kids. So we wondered around a lot at night. I would sit downtown and hang out with the hat lady at the library. My favorite band was Initial Detonation.
