Too many Children Dying… [A* C*]

Too Many Families Crying… [A# A]

Everybody Realizes… [A* C*]

We Should Collect ’em All… [A# A]

and Melt the Guns, Melt ‘em… [G D A] 3X

Then They’ll Never Kill Again… [E]

They say: “Guns Don’t Kill People, [A* C*]

Bullets Kill People” [A# A] 2X

But If We Melt All the Guns… [G D A] 3X

The Bullets will be Harmless… [E]

Hey, Hey, NRA, How Many Kids Did You Kill Today? 4X

[CHANT — Knuckles Knock on the Guitar Body]

No, It’s Not Video Games… [A* C*]

No, It’s Not Mental Health… [A# A] 2X

That’s Just Our Puppet President Pretending… [G D A] 2X

When The NRA Jerks His Chain, He Jumps! Good Dog! OBEY! [E A] 3X

Too many Children Dying… [A* C*]

Too Many Families Crying… [A# A]

Everybody Realizes… [A* C*]

We Should Collect ’em All… [A# A]

and Melt the Guns, Melt ‘em… [G D A] 3X

Then They’ll Never Kill Again… and Again… and Again… [E]

and Again… and Again… and Again… and Again… [E F F# G Ab A]

[Spoken] Are You Happy Buying Bulletproof Backpacks for Your Children?

A* = E0 A7 D7 G6 B0 e0

C* = E0 A0 D5 G5 B5 e0

A# = E0 A0 D3 G3 B3 e0

I like the fact that some lyrics are Sung over Very Discordant Chords and Others are Very Consonant. Like, Good Ideas are Consonant and Bad Ideas are Discordant…

I Heard The Chant in the Sixties: Originally it was: “Hey, Hey, LBJ, How Many Kids Did You Kill Today?”

I Intentionally Misquoted the NRA Slogan: “Guns Don’t Kill People, Bullets Kill People”

Well, we could Still Have the Singers Tour America but all those other Defective Brains can just GTFO!

The Last Time Texas Did Anything of Value was Sept. 12, 1958 When Jack Kilby Invented the Integrated Circuit at Texas Instruments. AND THAT was 60 Years Ago! Reality: They are a Drain on the USA. Texas Receives More Payments in Food Stamps, Welfare, Unemployment and Medicare than they Pay in Federal Taxes.

And They can take the Entire South With Them. We the Taxpayers will be Paying a Fortune for Hurricane Relief, AGAIN… Some Places Just are NOT VALID to Live in. Uninhabitable! The Gulf Coast of Texas all the way to Florida and Up the Atlantic to Virginia… Don’t Build a House There… It WILL Get Wiped Out By A Hurricane… REALLY! PAY ATTENTION TO REALITY! Don’t Build a House There!

I was wrong to state that there were ZERO people of value to come out of the American South since Jack Kilby in 1958 (with the exception of a Few Good Country and Western Singers). In Fact, Dr Martin Luther King and all his Coworkers were Southerners. And they were Great! But It IS TRUE to state that there were NO WHITE PEOPLE from the South that were of any value in the last 60 years… I see today on TV That Senator Rick Scott is Meeting with Mad King Donald to discuss the Hurricane. Scott made it illegal to talk about Global Warming or Climate Change in any Official Florida Government Documents when he was Governor. It Seems that simply pretending there is no problem FAILS to stop Mother Nature… He also looks like Golum from the Lord of the Rings… I realize that it’s not nice to make fun of ugly people but… I Can’t look at him without thinking of “My Precious.” He Ain’t Got No Alibi, He’s U.G.L.Y.

We Should HELP our Brainwashed Brothers and Sisters. Sadly, Mockery and Ridicule Seems to Be The Most Effective Way to Get Them to WAKE THE F*CK UP! They Reject Facts as Conspiracy Theories that “They” Want You to Believe… Reality has NO EFFECT on their Worldview… So, How Can We Whack Some Sense into their Beliefs? Just Like You Would Whack a Trump Pinata! On the Head… Try IT! I Like Writing MEMEs on Facebook. They have VERY FEW WORDS and Simple Pictures to Explain Easy Concepts. I Write as If I Was Writing for a Third Grader.

and Trey Gowdy Knows all About Doing Evil!

He Spent all that Time Investigating Benjamin Ghazi…

and Found Nothing! Nothing!

Simply Stop Buying Plastic Junk… then Trump’s Tariffs Don’t Matter… Endless Consumption is NOT the Path to the Mountaintop… Did Buddha Charge a Bunch of Stuff on his Credit Card in order to attain enlightenment? Really…

I Inherited Money from my Father and I Instantly Quit My Job at The County of Humboldt… and Then… I went to The Rainbow Gathering in Utah with my friend Mike. I Met a Guru There (Sonya Sophia) and Participated in her Online Guided Meditations for a Year. (The Rainbow Gathering is a Backpack Trip for 10,000 Hippies)

My Father’s Estate bought a House in Eureka and we Moved to a Place where We Could Watch the Sunset into the Pacific Ocean over the Channel between the Jettys on Humboldt Bay. I Can Verify that the Sun Sets in a Different position into the water depending on the Seasons of the Year. We set up two computers side by side and looked out the window. Often, she would watch Netflix TV Shows (like Sons of Anarchy) and I would do Art and Write Words and post them on my blog. I often took long driving vacations… I drove to Seattle to eat LEGAL Marijuana Cookies, Ride the Monorail and Play Music at the Experience Music Pavilion at the Base of the Space Needle. (a tribute to Jimi Hendrix and Curt Cobain)

And then The State of Oregon Legalized Marijuana. That Winter I Smoked a Pound of Oregon Legal Weed and my Blog saw a Dramatic Increase of Visitors… I Guess it was that “Absurdist Fiction” I was writing… OR Maybe it was the Fact That I Wrote a Program that Tricked Google into Ranking my Blog Highly. That Happened Too… and then one Beautiful Spring Day I Decided to go on another Driving Vacation. I Quit Smoking Weed Entirely, Left it at Home and Headed Out. What I did not realize at the time was… I Remained Stoned for a Month due to the THC Stored inside my Body… and I Experienced Cannabis Psychosis… I Saw Things That Were Not There and Believed They Really Happened… As I Left Fortuna Heading for Chico, I Picked up two Hitchhikers who wanted to go to LA… and so… I ended up Visiting LA and the Deserts of Nevada… The Desert was Amazingly Beautiful! (Marijuana makes things seem better!) After Camping, Eventually I ended up in the Hospital in Chico to treat an Infected Blister on my Foot. I was worried about Amputation and so I checked myself into the Hospital… Then, Surprisingly, The Police came to my bedside and they took me to a Mental Hospital in Sacramento. I Don’t Know Why. (Could it be Madness?) They believed I was 5150 and held me for 15 days, then Admitted Their Error and I was released to a Halfway house near Folsom. When I was in the Hospital they gave me Lithium… and that made me passive… but I quit taking that “Medicine” and recovered completely. [Lesson to be learned here… Question IF The Doctor is Giving You Good Advice… 400,00 Dead Oxycontin Users Did Not.] I have been here ever since. They do all the stuff required by life for me. Buying Food, Cooking, Doing Laundry, Picking Up Prescriptions, Driving my to Doctors Appointments… I Now Have Free Time to Write, Record Music Videos and Do Computer Art and Publish My Ideas Online. For Example: I Emailed All 100 Senators and Recommended that they #ImpeachTrump and I Shared 20 of my best Ideas… I Used Fake Addresses and Phone Numbers so I Appeared to Be a Voter in Their State…

I spend all day every day creating. I Wrote my autobiography. I Wrote an eBook “America’s Bogus Wars (cut the Pentagon Budget in Half and Refund the Money To The Taxpayers)” and Posted 70 Music Videos. I have found that I Get More Stuff Done when Not Stoned… The Quality of Work is More Original When Stoned but the Quantity is Less. Except my Music Videos are Better NOT STONED. I had trouble with playing the piano in a smooth rhythm… I guess that my brain was having difficulty remembering which note to play next… even on songs that I wrote myself and have played for decades… Go Figure… anyway, at this Assisted Living Facility I don’t drink booze or smoke tobacco or marijuana. I quit smoking tobacco because my brother got Lung Cancer and that scared me… He recovered, thanks to Modern Medicine THAT HE HELPED TO INVENT at his Job at Genentech. An actual case of “Doctor Heal Thyself.”

I joined a Singing Society at the Folsom Senior Center. 20 People and One Piano Player. We Do “Old Timey” songs like “A Bicycle Built for Two” and “Yankee Doodle Dandy.” We also went ON TOUR to other Senior Centers for Christmas Carols… I also lead a Group sing Along for Christmas Here at my Home. (We Have Three Houses) I Own Bells… Handy for Singing “Jingle Bells.” It is interesting to perform for REALLY OLD People. We Gave the Bells and They Truly Shook Them Randomly… but we all had a great time and after we had sung all the songs we knew, we sang them again… because… we are old people and we can do what we want!

SO, what have you been doing recently?

anyway… I have a great Retirement and there is more to come. I got a iPhone and Can hire Uber to Drive me Places… But I don’t have much Interest in Traveling! Go Figure! But I Do take a Long Walk Every Morning in the Neighborhood…

Clogged Drains in the Kitchen Sink are a Significant Part of Real Life while Calculus is Useless. Classes in How to Balance a Checkbook, Avoiding Credit Card Debt and Filing Income Taxes Would Have Been Valuable.

One Class they ought to add is Critical Thinking. In a World where there are SO Many People Lying it has been Handy to Know That Logical Fallacies Exist. I Took that Class in College and It Helped Me To WAKE UP! I Realized That It Was a Good Idea to “Think for Myself and Question Authority.” For Example: 400,000 People Died from Opioid Overdoses in the USA. But First, They Had to Believe Their Doctor and Buy That Prescription… Remember: Believing Lies Is Not the Best Plan for Life…

Another Example: “They” Don’t Tell You that Owning a Gun Makes Your Family LESS SAFE. The Increase in Successful Suicides, The Increase in Accidents and The Increase of One Family Member Shooting Another During Arguments TOTALLY OUTNUMBER the Number of Times You Defend Your Family From “Bad Guys.” They Lie to You In Order To Increase Profits… WAKE UP!

A More Subtle Example: TV Advertisements for Prescription Drugs (and Booze, Cars and Trucks) often show Beautiful Young People Doing Ecstatic Dancing! The Hidden Meaning Is That If You Take Their Drug You Will Feel Like Those People in the Ads. Rock Stars, Hang Gliders, Surfers, People Whose Children Just Graduated for College, People Who Won the Stuffed Bear at the Carnival, Mountain Climbers… I Always Turn off the Sound During Commercials and Often it is Impossible to Tell What Disease that Specific Drug is Used to Cure… All I Know is that by Taking The Drug, The Pretty Lead Singer in the Band was able to Cure Her Nausea and Sing and Their Concert was Wonderful… and Everybody Was Dancing WITHOUT DANDRUFF… There is One Ad That Shows BLISSED OUT PEOPLE Releasing Thousands of Fire Filled Paper Bags that Float into the Night Sky… I HAVE Felt Like Those People… ON LSD… However… “One Pill Makes You Larger, and One Pill Makes You Small, and the Ones That Mother Gives You, Don’t Do Anything At All… Go Ask Alice… When She’s Ten Foot Tall…” — Grace Slick

I Question IF Wayfair Delivers Happiness. Is Consumption of Plastic Crap The Key To True Enlightenment? Did Buddha Use His Credit Card to Order a Load of More, More, More STUFF? Remember: There are Two Ways to Get Everything You Want. Get More or Want Less.

One Class I Wish I Had Taken in College was How to Use Microsoft Word and Excel. The Teacher said We Could Simpy Take the Final Exam and Challenge the Class and I Did That. If You Passed the Final, You Didn’t Have to Attend The Class. Well, I Wish I Had Learned A LOT MORE about those Programs Because… At Work… They were the Most Often Used Programs… and Some Stuff Would Have been Super Handy To Know… Later, I DID Take a Class in Excel Paid for by My Employer… Because we really used that a LOT. We Created Contracts For The Clients to Sign and All the Contracts Had To Be Identical, But With Different Names, Addresses, Dates ETC. One Day, My Boss Told Me that She Had Esased the Word Document She was Working On… Well, It Is Possible to Find an Old Copy, But I Didn’t Know How… I Had Never Accidentally Erased My Work so I Just Didn’t Know… That Would Have Been an Opportunity To Be The Hero but…

A great TV Show is “The UnXplained” with William Shatner. Have any of You Done FIREWALKING? I don’t understand how it’s possible to walk on fire without doing damage to the feet. I Can Understand Not Feeling Pain in a Trance State but… The Lack of Damage is Unexplainable. My Store Manager at Radio Shack Did Firewalking. They all Chanted and Danced into a Trance and then He Did It. It was a Training Exercise for Store Managers Paid for by the Corporation Because… they felt that “If You Can Walk On Fire, You Can Certainly Run a Store.” It Was A Confidence Building Exercise.

In My Experience Prayer and Meditation has been a Total Failure. Nothing Happens at All. I Have Explored Dancing Myself into a Trance at a Carlos Santana Concert and THAT was FUN… But That was All.. One time We Went to a Five Day American Indian Christian Ceremony. Two Hundred Frame Drums and Six Father Drums. I Was Allowed to Play the Father Drum… That TOO Was Fun But In No Way Did I Contact God. Many of the Other People at That Ceremony Were “Slain By The Spirit” and they Fell Down when the Preacherman Touched their Head… but I Felt Nothing… Of Course, I Have Taken LSD at a Grateful Dead Concert and THAT is AMAZING… and All Other Religious Ceremonies Seem LAME After That Experience… It Really Makes Communion at a Christian Church Seem To Be A PATHETIC JOKE… You Eat The Sacred Wafer and NOTHING HAPPENS… Well, Eat a Sacred Wafer at a Grateful Dead Concert and SOMETHING WILL HAPPEN. Have You Ever Read HAIKU On Acid? You Experience a Tidal Wave of Realization… Meaning… OH! I GET IT! EUREKA! FUN!

Sadly, I Have Never Experienced Anything Unexplainable. No UFO Encounters, NO Near Death Experiences, No Out of Body Experiences, NO Successful Prayer… Nothing… Yes, I ate Psychedelic Drugs and Saw Visions but That is a Real Cause and Effect Event. Not a Contact with God or Extraterrestrials… Even William Wilson, the Founder of Alcoholics Anonymous, Never Had a Contact With a “Higher Power” without Taking Psychedelic Drugs. He Had a “Religious Experience” While on Belladona and Henbane… now, That’s some Powerful Dope! Only to be Used under Doctor’s Supervision…

The Only Thing That That I Have Experienced That is Remotely Magical is the Time Effect of Programming a Computer. I Have Been “In The Zone” While Writing Code or Doing Complex Mathematical Computer Art. At School, We All Found that Time Travels Very Fast. You Start Programming and then an Instant Later, The Clock Shows That Hours Have Passed. I Have Also Experienced an Interesting MOOD After Watching the TV Show “Ancient Aliens” for Many Hours… Makes Me Wonder…

YES, I Have Experienced an Altered State of Consciousness Because of Sex. An Afterglow Does Happen… That Can be Explained by Darwin’s Evolution Theory but… I Prefer to Not Explain it at all, Just Enjoy… Relax and Bliss OUT!

I Remember that one Day in the Computer Lab at School I Was Complaining about How Useless Calculus was and a Student said: “Calculus is Essential to the Design of Atomic Power Plants and Bombs. Without Calculus You Just Can’t Do IT!” — SO, Not only is Calculus Useful, IT’S EVIL!
