So I am being booted out of my dorm and not allowed to register for summer classes do to a balance that I supposedly owe the University. Back in the spring of 2014 I put in my application for the graduate program in Teaching and Learning. I applied for my FAFSA with no problems and started taking classes, eventually I was admitted to the program. That's where things got weird.
I was going to classes off and on after being homeless for four years it is a hard transition back into school so I didn't actually do any thing but My grades as a graduate student were A's and B's . Then they said I needed to pay them for the semester, well why didn't my Guaranteed student loan pay for it. Oh, because you were accepted into the program later. Then I got MRSA. (3 weeks in hospital)
So, After my medical upheaval which was not fun at all and is still messing with me. I tried to get back into the school groove. I thought I should take some easier classes and still I failed myself. so I am gonna keep keep'n on and go on a walkabout Fuck it all fuck it no regrets!!!!
Music is the one thing that matters so I am going full ahead with my kickstarter for a new album and Let's Horn Up!!!

The irritation of an Asshole
I am an asshole I know that and I am ok with it so I get to speak my peace anyways. The past few weeks and months have been pretty spectacled by stupid people and stupid thinking. I had hope that we in most part had moved on from the primal race card and accepted that we are a nation of immigrants with an ancestry from all around the world. Save for the Native Americans no one has the real right to question or comment on what our nation is doing to itself. We are all dog faces, the mix breeds that should rise above the the stupidity of seeing a person just for colour.
The riots in Baltimore were stupid, but I understand why they happened the tension across the nation was so thick you could taste it. So now not have only polarized our bicameral government but we are polarizing those that are for the police and those against. There is no one to blame but ourselves for buying into the feeds from the media. We are so in love with the 24 hour news cycle that we can all get our 15 minutes of fame on their one way or another.
This recent biker gang throw down that happened in Texas started me thinking of my days as a kid outside of Philly and I remember hearing about the Hell's Angels and I was intrigued as latch key parochial school kid could be. There was a bar in the town I lived in I think it was called Phil's and the bikers would always park there and drink and the stigma was that it was a bad place to go. Same in Tucson I remember A couple of biker bars that we all tried to steer away from. Why? I have no problem today going into such an establishment. I adhere to no gang or any such organization. I guess you could call me Geneva because I really don't care what they do as long as they leave me alone. I have seen the gang mentality in High school here in Anchorage and have broken up incidents with peaceful accord.
I think we really need to look at where and why their are gangs in our country. We have always been a gang culture since our inception even the natives had tribes that battled each other. Is one gang better than the other, no but it is no secret that biker gangs have been formed out of a lot of veterans of wars that have come back and have that band of brothers mentality. There is nothing wrong with that I know so many of them that I almost admire some for the familial bond that they have with other members.
I think if we take anything and put it on tv people are going to be drawn to it and find some sort of solace or vindication through the stories that are produced and then it is a small jump to real life. When we actually promote a show that is ripped from the headlines people are drawn to it. it is called rubbernecking we all want to see the bad thing and think that we can handle it. Think of the cops that see death every day, that's why they drink or use hey need that escape it is the unwritten prescription for handling he job. Guess what most of us teachers drink too. There is nothing new happening today that didn't happen 30 years ago. Hell we even have another oil spill. just more proof of that those who do not understand history are doomed to repeat it. Way to go.
I really wanted to write a bunch of cuss words like Fuck, shit, bitch, cunt, damned evil old whore. But I really don't see the need for them right now so anyways... Back to you regular scheduled Facebooking or porn watching or whatever you do on the internet.
