Best news all day...

In the best news I have heard ALL day long... Mark David Chapman was once again, denied parole. This is the 9th time he has been denied parole based on concerns for public safety and welfare. He will be eligible again to apply for parole in 2010. Continue to rot in prison you evil man.

For those of you who don't know, Chapman murdered John Lennon on December 8th, 1980. Lennon was shot 4 times while entering his apartment building with his wife Yoko Ono. Lennon was pronounced dead on arrival in the Emergency Room at the Roosevelt Hospital in New York at 11:15 p.m. after being transported there in the back of a police car.

Theme song...

I have often wondered what my theme song would be. Something that would describe who I am in the form of music and lyrics. Well, in digging through my collection I found one that just about sums it up... here it is...


The Charlie Daniels Band - Simple Man
I ain't nothin' but a simple man
They call me a redneck I reckon that I am
But there's things going on
That make me mad down to the core.

I have to work like a dog to make ends meet
There's crooked politicians and crime in the street
And I'm madder'n hell and I ain't gonna take it no more.

We tell our kids to just say no
Then some panty waist judge lets a drug dealer go
Slaps him on the wrist and then he turns him back out on the town.

Now if I had my way with people sellin' dope
I'd take a big tall tree and a short piece of rope
I'd hang 'em up high and let 'em swing 'til the sun goes down

Well, you know what's wrong with the world today
People done gone and put their Bible's away
They're living by the law of the jungle not the law of the land
The good book says it so I know it's the truth
An eye for and eye and a tooth for a tooth
You better watch where you go and remember where you been
That's the way I see it I'm a Simple Man.

Now I'm the kinda man that'd not harm a mouse
But if I catch somebody breakin in my house
I've got twelve guage shotgun waiting on the other side

So don't go pushing me against my will
I don't want to have to fight you but I damn sure will
So if you don't want trouble then you'd better just pass me on by

As far as I'm concerned there ain't no excuse
For the raping and the killing and the child abuse
And I've got a way to put an end to all that mess

Just take them rascals out in the swamp
Put 'em on their knees and tie 'em to a stump
Let the rattlers and the bugs and the alligators do the rest

You know what's wrong with the world today
People done gone and put their Bible's away
They're living by the law of the jungle not the law of the land
The Good Book says it so I know it's the truth
An eye for and eye and a tooth for a tooth
You better watch where you go and remember where you been
That's the way I see it I'm a Simple Man

More insight into the mind of ChuCK... (pt.6)

Well, this will be the finally stop on this long trip of no useful information. If you have been following this, you can tell that my tastes are all over the map. I will leave you now, short winded, with the final installment of music that meant something to me in my later teen years...




































Years have past...I listen to every style now

More insight into the mind of ChuCK... (pt.5)

I know I have left several out on the last one... but for a reason. Either I can't find them, but more likely there is just not enough time for me to dig them out. As I got older my taste in music, although it was still holding on to the past, had changed quite a bit. As with most things... age helped score a deeper shot with the music I listened too. It meant so much more to me... So here is a continuation that is VERY close to the same time period as the last part. This is where time starts to slow down in my musical history...





-I'm still sorry...
