O Brother Where Chat Thou?

I love this song at the moment called "hello old man".

It's about a son that comes home after many years (by sounds of it) to an ungrateful father who never put any effort into his son. As if, this son was the worse of the sons he had. And so the song describes how the father went to a "forgotten" war, I believe that's Vietnam and so his life experience outweighs the experience of his son when the father got his scars from war, his son got his scars brawling in pubs instead.

The son doesn't think too much of the father either, thought he idolizes his father at the same time, arguing that it was the stories and tales the father told that got the son so worked up and wild as he grew. He sees that his father is stubborn, cussing the dirt and begging for rain, a livelihood the son never had an interest in partaking in.

Anyhoo, as each verse is sung, the son questions the father as to why he doesn't like how his son turned out. Like father like son. Each chorus ends slightly different with a different word but he's basically asking "what? You didn't think I'd end up to be like me, you might have known id end up to be like me, and that you should have known id end up to be like me."

So getting to the final part of the song the son says

"Hello old man life rolls along, and I'm just trying to reap what you have sewn
You never wished me well on the night I left
But in my eyes you saw yourself
Now your wayward son has come back home
What'd you think of me while I was gone?
Old man when I was on your knee
You should have know I'd turn out to be like me
You should have known id turn out, to be like you. "

Anyway, I just think it was a smart song, written really well with that slight twist at the end. I can almost feel and envision it going down too. And I believe the song rings of truths too.

I remember when my daddy told me he was worried because he was starting to see the same fire in my eyes as I got older that he knew he had too. I specifically remember him telling me "No! Fuck! What have I done, you're becoming too much like me". it's just weird that this is such a dad thing, I couldn't envision this song being sung about a mom or anything lol.

 

RawR.. Irm ,, the grass eater gets eaten by the meat eater.. assuming narcotic plants were eaten its very possible..

 

I watched a documentary once where certain animals actually do take drugs for recreation like reindeer eating shrooms etc. lol.

 

I'll be working the long weekend at a firework warehouse. I'm doing sales. I know nothing about fireworks or sales.

I'm not too worried, I've spent the past few hours on the company's website (which has a video of each firework) and on the wikipedia page for fireworks in general.

There are a few categories of explosions which are almost all named after flowers: peonies, chrysanthemums, dahlias, palms, willows (although there's a cool one called a fish)... I know the difference between missiles/rockets (which are similar... One booms, one doesn't), and the rest like cakes, fountains, and noisemakers (a classic noisemaker is a cherry bomb).

Every product within the same category is relatively similar. The names almost give away what each firework does, so that helps.

I remember seeing some animals eating rotten fruit and getting drunk.......

while I was away my dog ran out into the farm field and started chasing geese...he is absolutely filthy with black soil stains all over him....boarder says he is a different dog when I am home...a good dog....and when I am away....not do good

 

my dog may be under the impression that when I am away HE is in charge

 

A have a special drug for spiders

cemetary shrines are a pain in the ass for grasscutters and groundskeepers

 

Don't sell fireworks to anyone named Muhammad

 

hate when things suck and there's not much you can do.
Wife went out about 10pm last night, was gone for a while. asked what was up.
she got a call from one of our daughters friends. she went out to dinner with her dad and he was now drunk off his ass, as usual, and she wasn't going to get in a car with him, so she called the wife for a ride to a friends house so she wasn't around when dear old dad came home..
We told her to call day or night if something like this happens. This has been the second time she called for a ride because her dad is drunk.
I guess mom is even worse considering she lost custody.
Great world whenever one drunk is given custody because they aren't "as bad" as the other drunk.
Well at least we are glad she called and will get up and go if she ever calls again.
My daughter doesn't fully understand what it's like to live with an alcoholic...thank god, so at times she gets exasperated at her friend. We tell her it's never knowing if or when someone is going to go from nice and jolly to breaking shit and punching.
unfortunately we aren't in a position for her to stay with us, but at least she knows she can always call for help if needed

stupid movie time..

Freaked 2013 an oddball amusement park run by the demented Elijah C. Skuggs (Randy Quaid). It turns out that Skuggs is using the substance in E.E.S. products to turn humans into grotesque mutants.

 

i vaguely remember that one

 

that should be 1993 ,, my bad..

 

off the charts stupid so far. not getting any better.

 

here is another fireworks safety tip for the canuckleheads....you know those pinwheel ones that you anchor to the ground and they spin sparks?....do not insert the stick into your anus and light the pinwheel expecting to fly around like a sparkling helicopter....


it doesn't work

 

ive never had enough extra money to waste it on fireworks

i prefer to spend it on steaks

 

repo guy i posted vids a few times...lost his wife april 15

 

I put new inner tie rods on the beast...now my wobble,vibration is considerably reduced but I will not rest until it is smooth......I have new front shocks to do next and then outer t-rods and ball joints....after that....new tires


at least 1 new tire on account I will be broke

 

I just planted about 40ish potato plants and 90ish onion sets....managed to get some roma tomatoes in and some ''big boy'' tomatoes....tomorrow is strawberries,cucumbers.

I also cleaned the chicken coop and put fresh straw down....burned out my fire pit.....fenced in the remainder of my garden..


i have an old steel fence gate i just lean in the opening of the coop area....i usually remove it every day and let the birds run free......yesterday one of the big birds must have jumped onto the top of it to get out before i moved it....she toppled the gate over and when i went out one of my new baby hens was pinned underneath it all bent to shit and not happy about it.......she is fine...kind of walked sideways for a few seconds but is now fully recovered

 

I used to love bottle rockets and roman candles and shit like that but the problem is they are a beacon for the cops to know where you are. Now I only buy waterproof firecrackers. I love putting them in a can of half filled water. The can jumps up to 10 feet or more sometimes.
