HEY THERE!
Down in miami, doing miami stuff!
beach, pool, massage, repeat.
in between i work out and walk and eat stuff with quinoa in it.
i have to tell you about the melvins new record, tarantula heart.
if you hate metal, then stop reading this.
but you'd think after 40 years in the business Buzzo et al would not be inventing new stuff.
but the first song on this record ("pain equals funny" ) might be the greatest metal medley ever. i know i'm using the term "medley" incorrectly - but what to do you call a 20 minutes song with separate parts, each one classic?
you can get the album on iTunes. but i include the youtube link below.
again, if you're not into metal, you will find this abrasive and perhaps insane. so don't listen to it just to complain about how noisy and irritating it is. if you love metal and hard rock, this will be hit you in the face.
but for me its equal parts Stooges, Kiss and Hendrix, with Buzzo in front.
Congratulation to @SGKusmertz, @bek1, and @wilbner. Your questions were chosen for tonight’s Ask Joe and the Panelists.
@SGKusmertz If you could have one song play when you enter a room, what would it be?
@bek1 Do you usually feel excited or stressed out about going back to school after summer break?
@wilbner What was the best prank you’ve ever pulled?
Congratulations to @Ted_Prohowich. Your question was chosen for tonight’s Ask Greg and the Panelists.
@Ted_Prohowich What's your back to school advice?
I wanted to wait 'til I had some good news to report...This is one of our cats, Weasel. He's really a she, but he identifies as a he. Long story. He's 14.
Recently, he's been losing weight, and drinking & urinating 3x as much as he used to. So, he saw the Vet this past Friday and he has diabetes - and now he needs insulin shots 2x a day, and his glucose levels checked regularly.
My wife was not able to make the trip to the Vet but since then she's been a rock and has got the routine down. Surprisingly, Weasel, who has a "colorful" disposition, has been a saint, not letting the needles affect his (or our) quality of life.
Hopefully his levels continue to drop and injections can be reduced, and God willing, (temp. or perm.) discontinued.
Everyone on the Gutter is so good about taking care of their pets. So just another friendly reminder to not wait if you see warning signs.
