Well, today I just found out Les Paul died. Not that he died today, he died August 13th. The world stops and mourns the loss of Michael Jackson for months on end. No arguing he had good music and was a major cultural influence. But my god.....Les Paul. The inventor of the electric guitar, the most influential guitar player in the world until Jimmy Hendrix....I just can't believe it. People go on and on and on about pop stars and actors and their latest fling. Apparently it's too much fucking trouble for news networks to take 10 fucking minutes out of their 8 hour marathons of Michael fucking Jackson to mention that the inventor of modern recording, effects pedals, and the electric guitar has passed on. These people wouldn't even have careers if not for Les Paul. He invented the first machine to be able to do multiple recordings at once. Modern music is only possible because of his ingenuity, hard work, and ability. To take 10 minutes out of their, (news networks and so called "music stations"), day to acknowledge him is too much of an inconvenience though. For those who don't know who he was, then look up "Les Paul documentary" on youtube. He will be missed, and I am happy for everything he has given modern musicians.

Thanks for everything Les!

still have writers block but it's dissolving slowly! Thank you Whichone! Now for the slightly bigger news for the one person who reads this.

I'm a student at the Denver School of Massage Therapy. That's right folks, Jax finally got off his ass and went for something, Whoo! This is a little late considering I've been going for almost 2 1/2 months, but hey. If ya know me ya know I don't do updates very much online. So yeah, in school, and I have a job waiting for me once I graduate at a Massage Clinic down in Castle Rock, Co. I won't graduate until Aug. 8 of next year but hell, this a big step. So jump for joy and pass the punch!

"What the hell is the stuff I'm writing now?" That's the only thought that keeps running through my head. I can't think of anything creative to write and when I finally get some inspiration whatever comes out is total crap. Example, the last piece I submitted, Weak Woman. What the fuck was that? I've gone from being a half-way decent writer to some jack-ass wanna-be poet. Not the first time I've gotten writers block but damn it, this is the first time where when I finally feel creative and what I do is complete crap. This has lasted for over a fucking year and a half now, I'm sick of it. Any way to resurrect my muse or tips for it would be awesome.

Almost a year since my last journal entry! For something pointless!

I really like the new DA design.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled emo beating.
