very sad !!
Posted December 4, 2007 by vlaka72
Sunday night on the way to work, I got pulled over by a county cop.. After 9 great years of doing this, It has come to a fatal, & sad ending ! ! Every christmas I always decorate my car, or truck with christmas lights inside & out, & by the thousands, & drive down the road with them lit up. Im sure some of you may have heard of me or even seen me going down the road every christmas for the past 4 years here in anderson.
In 2005 wyff news done a story about me decorating the car, and I was on the news that one December night.. I done this for 5 years in Georgia before I moved up here which its a total of 9 years.
People would lauff,, blow their horn, or take pictures & or video, & give me thumbs up, & I had their support.. I was a legend.. They loved me
Lucky for me the cop gave me only a warning ticket.. God dammit !! Im going to miss all this.. Sad, but true, the lights are comming down friday evening.. I will take final video, & pictures of the car with all them lights before I take them down.....
I guess like people say,,"there is an end to everything"..
Yes I am pissed off, sad, & mad, but it's the fuckin LAW !!!! .

Some Suggestions to Live By....
Posted September 29, 2007 by old_hippie_1955


A Few Basic Thoughts & Rules to Live By.....

Let me start with my favorite "Quote";Which is the title of a song by Michelle Shocked : "The Secret to a Long Life is Knowing When It's Time to Go." I have always had kinda of a "Sixth Sense" about knowing when things were about to go bad ;or as we sometimes say "The Shit Is About to Hit the Fan". At that point , I would exit the situation immediately. This Philosophy has served me well over the years.
Now just a few suggestions; (I hesitate to call them rules);to live by.
1.) Never steal anything from another person. You don't want anybody stealing your shit ;Do You???? Plus it will help keep you out of trouble with the law. And everyone hates a thief.
2.) Say what's on your mind and Don't Lie! Never Say anything behind someone's back;that you'd be Chickenshit to say to there face.
3.) If you are going out of the town you live in to party at a Concert,Club,or Wherever,and you don't have a Designated Driver;Spring for the price of a motel room! This will not only keep you out of jail,but possibly keep you and others ALIVE!
4.)When it comes to drugs,if you choose to indulge,Stick with the "Naturals",Weed or Shrooms,and the Quality Pharmaceuticals that Come from a Drug Store. Avoid "Bootleg Street Drugs"at all cost. They will Fuck up your life and you will end up either Dead or in Jail. Trust me on this one;In the Days of My Wasted Youth;I expermented with everything that came down the pike;but by the Grace of God Some How I Survived . But those I grew up with who didn't "Wise Up" in time, are either no longer with us on this "Earthly Plain",in jail,or are only a shell of there former selves. Quality Control & Safety are of No Concern to a "Meth cook" or anyone else that manufactures "Street Drugs",so Just steer clear of them.
5.) Don't lose any sleep over "What Somebody Said". In this life we have to learn to be "Thick Skinned' to get by. If you worry about what other people say about you;You will literally Drive Yourself Nuts. In Short:Fuck Em',and Live your Life to Satisfy YOU!
6.) Unless you are terminally ill and in unbearable pain;Suicide or as I call it "The Black Angel Cure" is NEVER AN OPTION!
I don't care how depressed,heartbroken,disenfranchied or fucked up you may think your life is; LIVING IS STILL BETTER THAN DYING!!!! Tomorrow May Just Be The Day It All Turns around for You and if your Dumb Ass is Dead You'll Miss It.
7.) As biblical & cliche' as it may sound;Just treat people the way you would want them to treat you. As "Earl" would say:"It's Karma;Do Bad Things & Bad Things Will Happen to You"
Well that's enough for you folks to digest at one sitting;so I'll get down off my "Soap Box" for Now.
Till Next Time,
May the Deity or Deities of Your Choosing Be With You,
Peace,
Danny G.
