For what its worth

If anyone ever gives me the gift.....you know....the one where you get a card saying that a donation has been made in your name......save yourself the money....

NEWSFLASH!!!! This is a horrible gift.......but here are some alternatives I will accept.

You can buy a house in my name, then give it to me
You can buy a car in my name, then give it to me.
You can take cash from an atm, and put it into my bank account
You can buy a computer in my name......then give it to me.
You can buy stocks in my name, then transfer them to my account.
end.

OH-NYNE

To live.....loudly, and without being ashamed.
To have as much fun as possible.
To be a YES man.
To take risks.
To remember why I came here.
To appreciate everyone.

She spills her drink on her sleeve.
"Here" he says.
"It'll be ok"
Wiping her shirt with a warm, wet cloth.

They sit there, Staring at the walls, neither one willing to say goodbye for hope of some cataclysmic event to interrupt their parting. Its funny the things they think about to keep their minds distracted from the inevitable loss.
The way a shadow falls on the rug.
A speck of dust falling through a ray of light.

As he stands up, his hand hits the table, drawing a wince from his face. She yells at him to wait. Running into the kitchen with tears in her eyes, she reaches into the freezer, emptying cubes of ice into a plastic baggie.
Racing back to him, she takes his hand as if holding a precious jewel.
"Here", she says.
"It'll be ok."

Tour

Starting in January, I will be hitting all of the favorite spots that matt and I played on our little mini-tour. It will be fun to return to some of those venues, and I am hoping that GINA will be able to join me on some of those dates.

Until then, the piano play will continue, and I'll be busy preparing a decent set list that I can be happy with. So feel free to visit our MYSPACE page and take a listen to the 3 tunes that I have up there. Also, you can feel free to add any one of the songs to your profile....if it doesn't work, email me and I can send it to you.

byebye for now

I just got a new piano. Well, new to me. Its old.....really old. It needs to be tuned. There are some keys that stick.

It's Perfect.

I wanted to start writing songs differently and I must say, it is working very well. The piano brings an entirely different point of view to the table. I must say that I am partial to Coldplay's "The Scientist" and "Clocks".
