RIP, Ray


Before you slip into unconsciousness
I'd like to have another kiss
Another flashing chance at bliss
Another kiss, another kiss

The days are bright and filled with pain
Enclose me in your gentle rain
The time you ran was too insane
We'll meet again, we'll meet again

Oh tell me where your freedom lies
The streets are fields that never die
Deliver me from reasons why
You'd rather cry, I'd rather fly

The crystal ship is being filled
A thousand girls, a thousand thrills
A million ways to spend your time
When we get back, I'll drop a line

Between Two Kegstands


Just because Spring Break is over doesn't mean it can't rock an anthem.

Some Are More Equal Than Others



Mark Laita's series, Created Equal, documents "social inequality by placing photos of US citizens who appear to be the opposites of each other side by side".  Here are some of my favorites...


Lingerie Model / Woman in Girdle


Gang Member / Mafioso


 Astronaut / Alien Abductee

Catholic Nuns / Prostitutes

Get Some Go Again

Marriage is about team work. Like raising a child. Or holding down an intruder while your spouse stabs them.

As her husband fought with an trespasser, the woman grabbed a knife and stabbed the stranger to death, said sheriff investigators.  The corpse apparently was the same man who robbed the woman in the North Bend, WA home Sunday, just 12 hours earlier!  The couple's baby daughter and the wife's mother were also in the home about 1:40 a.m. this morning when the couple were awakened by barking dogs.

The intruder entered the house through an unlocked door Sunday and assaulted the wife, getting away with some cash. She didn't get a good look at him because her hair was grabbed from behind, slapped and punched in the face, and suffered an ankle injury when she was dragged by her hair.  I'm going to guess that she was thrilled to have a second shot at her assailant with less disadvantage.

Investigators don't believe the residents know the intruder and there's nothing to indicate why the house was attacked, let alone twice.  But let that be a warning to would-be robbers and thieves - returning to the scene of the crime can exacerbate any preexisting conditions, like say, knife allergies.

So yeah...the Kings came back from a 0-2 hole to win four games in a row and boot the St. Louis Blues out of the 1st round on Saturday night.
