Hondo

You baked today. I can smell fresh bread on you. Sometime today, you cooked with salt pork. Smell that on you, too. You smell all over like soap: you took a bath. And, on top of that, you smell all over like a woman. I could find you in the dark, Mrs. Lowe, and I'm only part Indian.

 
 

I do not trust fat Republican chicks!!! or skinny ones for that matter...

SARAH SANDERS: "The President doesn't recall [his foreign policy advisor] George Papadopoulos."
DONALD TRUMP: "I have one the best memories in history."





but I always wondered what happened to fat chick Nancy Crawford -Hall..Wendy's soul sister in crime...after she folded her weekly paper the Santa Ynez Journal and blamed gov't unions, she disappeared..but she still owns the big ranch and is neighbors with the Chumash Indians in Santa Ynez...goddam uppity Indians, give them an inch and they take a mile..same with the uppity black football players protesting discrimination before every football game now..I have never been discriminated against so I don't know what their problem is...

but the Chumash have forced Nancy to hire lawyer Barry Capello who used to do Wendy's dirty work until she unleashed him..but still he's humping the legs of rich Republican ladies!!! what a punk!!

apparently, these white folks don't want the redskins to build houses on CAMP 4- pristine ag land right next to Nancy's isolated hog ranch, the Lucas Ranch or san lucas or something

now I live in Carpinteria for a reason..it's beautiful, right next to the ocean, highway's close by for a quick getaway..and we got mountain views that are killer!

I think Nancy and some of the hill folk in the SY valley have cabin fever..been holed-up too long and see every change as a threat...

the irony is Davy Crockett aka Fess Parker sold the Indians the land!!! DAVY CROCKETT!!!

Who Knows Where The Time Goes

Across the evening sky, all the birds are leaving Oh but then you know, it was time for them to go
 



it was a cold, gray October Saturday day...I was burning incense, drinking green tea with ginger and listening to rocknroll all day.."I WENT DOWN TO THE CROSSROADS, FELL DOWN ON MY KNEES" sang Cream.. I turned the stereo way up

I checked my watch and then the calendar...Oct 28 2017...2017!!! AARP, Social Security!! WTF is going on!! where'd the time go??

I head off to see Collins and Stills helplessly hoping they're still alive..they're in their 70s you know....I love the Arlington neighborhood-used to live here with an old girlfriend..wonder if she's still alive..or maybe she's undead

I'm dressed in black like Johnny Cash....I pose in front of the Arlington Theater..I feel cool

I see State Street is hopping with people...you can smell the restaurants cranking out tasty dinners and everyone seems happy....some guy is pacing up and down, asking people for extra tickets...

I see some chicks from Carp and a chick, Kathleen, who was on the city council years ago..man, she sure looks different..dressed to kill in black leather jacket and miniskirt and heels... I guess you never really know a woman till you see her legs!! YOOOWWWW!!

I wish all city council chicks looked like this!

 
the show starts at 8:00pm with a singer named Ben...forgot his last name but he was pretty good...the place is packed

then Stills and Collins hit the stage and start singing and playing with a three-man backup band..."Handle Me With Care" a little tribute to Tom Petty



 
the very beautiful Judy Collins is supposedly 78 years old but she looks around 48 and sounds like an angel... Stills was in good shape at 72..hit a few blue notes but when they clicked, it was awesome...a really lovely version of "So Begins The Task" from the Manassas album..Judy happily singing harmony and playing rhythm on a beautiful Martin 12-string...Stills played an army of expensive guitars..Fender Strat and a big blonde Gretsch plus some Martins...all worth a fortune

they did a new song, Cohen's 'Everybody Knows' from the new album.. it was thrilling.. just beautiful...

no pictures allowed and they teased and joked with the audience about cell phones ..they told stories about each other and the start of the folk music scene..Judy did solo versions of Leonard Cohen's 'Suzanne' which was stirring to say the least...and Joni Mitchell's 'Both Sides, Now'....I was pretty much in Heaven at that point...her voice is amazing and everyone was oohing and ahhing and the duo got about ten standing ovations thruout the night

some political stuff interspersed from two old folkies hit the spot

Stephen and Judy rocked out with 'For what It's Worth' and 'Bluebird' from the Springfield days..Stills' guitar playing was insane...

they did two encores..'Houses' from Collins and Suite: Judy Blue Eyes..the middle and ending which had everyone on their feet again

then a curtain call with the band and that was it...the concert was a grand affair....the Arlington is a gem ...the songbook from these icons is stellar.... these two are the real deal and their music has given me great joy over the years..and it still does....

man, that was a good night

Hurt So Good

c'mon baby make it hurt so good

so Trump did a good job highlighting the drug problems America has...oh sure he threw in the border wall which has NOTHING to do with drugs...a wall will not stop drugs from reaching the junkies...


 

and wisely Trump says alcohol is just as bad as any other drug...Trump doesn't drink or smoke and does not seem addicted to anything except Twitter and power...and pussy!

so I'm all for the war on drugs because drugs are just stupid and only lazy, stupid people do drugs..lazy stupid people clog society!!!

but what Trump doesn't realize is that the News-Press, Wendy and Nipper, are booze pimps...they push booze in the News-Press like a homeless person pushes aluminum cans in a shopping cart

BOOZE IS EVERYWHERE!!! Prohibition didn't work...Santa Barbara's got the new booze infused Funk Zone....it's got the Wine, Beer, and Tequila Festivals...and of course the stoners and pot use will increase

there are more recreational drug users in Santa Barbara than any place on earth!! nowadays even the slightest little pain sends some people to the opiate aisle....or to the bar...or to the liquor store where Nipper would be working if Wendy wasn't wealthy

look, I'm no good at being noble, but it doesn't take much to see that the problems of some stupid, little people in Santa Barbara don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world...

here's looking at you, kid

Undone

 She's come undone
She didn't know what she was headed for

And when I found what she was headed for
It was too late




She's come undone
She found a mountain that was far too high
And when she found out she couldn't fly
It was too late


It's too late
She's gone too far
She's lost the sun


She's come.... undone!!!

No Milk Today

just two up, two down

ok so I missed Peter Noone and the Herman's Hermits concert at the Lobero...it was part of the Unity Shoppe's celebration....many wannabes, conservatives and white rich locals showed up...Wendy's numero uno sycophant Nipper was there with Dennis Miller, who performed sans Bill O'Reilly...we just learned Bill paid 32 MILLION dollars to FOX News gal Lis Wiehl to shut her up about his perverted sex issues..that dude is SICKO!!! and Miller continued to tour with Bill!! wimp

 
Kenny Loggins was there and from the pics I see Kenny's facelift just keeps getting weirder and creeps me out....Kenny, the aging process is a natural thing, not a plastic thing

social butterflies Beth and CJ were there..how exciting!!

but you know, reading the News-Press Real Estate section, I saw that the Unity Shoppe just bought a building on State St for a few million dollars with DONOR money...that seems to conflict with their message: The Unity Shoppe is a 501 (c)(3) Public Benefit Corporation that encourages self-sufficiency and independence by providing education and the necessities of life to families, children, seniors and persons with disabilities during periodic times of crisis.

'encourages self-sufficiency'....only if you're a poor Mexican

but you know what they say: beggars can't be choosers


newspress.com EXPIRED??? DEAD??

and I see from an EDHAT post that Wendy hasn't renewed her newspress.com site?? hmmmm..maybe her check bounced

http://www.newspress.com/Top/index.jsp

the Lobero Theater should be ashamed for letting Nipper on the stage

4 Dead in Ohio

four!! how many more???

look it's real simple: less wars less invasions less dead soldiers and civilians, less people wearing their patriotism on their sleeves, less wasted money and on and on....



 

Trump is the commander-in-chief and his chief of staff, John Kelly is a 4 star general and they BOTH are pussies...


but apparently there's a threat in Niger so severe we need American troops over there to help the tribes..just ask the native American tribes how much we helped them and you'll see our foreign policy of deploying troops in sovereign countries is lunacy...

and now we have four ambushed and killed in Niger, wherever that is..the Trump people have been silent except to say maybe a tribal meeting went on too long and gave the killers time to plan...

then we have a supposed 4-Star general wimping out, smearing a Florida congresswoman, Frederica Wilson, and defending Trump's indefensible diss of one of the dead soldiers ( I like guys who stay alive)..I mean this Kelly is one big drama queen....


The White House Keeps Attacking Congresswoman Who Has Been Right All Along

Calling Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-Fla.) a liar keeps backfiring.

these guys are pathetic....



Sara Huckabee Sanders, who bothers me to no end, suggests we should not question 4-star generals..that is the MO of catholic priests so they can molest kids...don't question daddy figures!! how fucking stupid is this Sara who looks frighteningly like her dad....
of course all this is politicized with the conservatives being "stunned"..but they were pretty quick to politicize Benghazi, weren't they???

total hypocrites...Trump and Kelly should resign

Mary, Mary

where ya goin' to?

in society we all must practice self-control..believe you me, if it weren't frowned upon, I would whack- off in front of every woman from here to the grocery store...but I have self-control

 

unlike certain white guys who have fallen from grace because they had no self-control...Harvey Weinstein, Bill O'Reilly, Roger Ailes, Eric Bolling, ok all the weird guys on FOX NEWS....these fellows harassed women sexually with loofas, dirty phone calls, sex in the hallway with planters and all such perversions...all these dudes were in the entertainment industry..films and TV News...liberals and conservatives have dicks and these dickheads exposed themselves

get it?

EXPOSED THEMSELVES!!! HAHAHAHA!!!

Because The Night

belongs to us



circa 1987: I'm in the Olive Mill Bistro in Montecito having a beer at the bar one night...blonde walks in.. Frannie...she's a high school classmate from a private school...she's a twin..she and her sis Julie were both smart as can be or at least smarter than me

Frannie was really pretty so I say 'hi" and she sits down next to me and then all of a sudden she bolts out the door like a scared little girl!

I couldn't figure it out... I wanted her sooooooo bad ever since school...I just can't shake her

she became a minister and so did her sister...her dad was a church dude at All Saints by the Sea and the Miramar...her brother married Elaine from Seinfeld, Julia Louis-Dreyfus..

same night, in a booth sat John Carradine...he was an older man, drinking wikskey, bent over his glass with arthritis or something, talking to himself...still, I was in awe

so I'm watching Billy the Kid vs Dracula with John Carradine and Olive Carey..I lived in Olive's pink house on Rancho Monte Alegre....back in the day, she threw cocktail parties with the likes of John Wayne, Robert Mitchum and John Carradine showing up...

these were some of my western heroes!

maybe Frannie thought I was a vampire..or maybe that was Julie?

My Old School

whoa no, William and Mary won't do, now

ok so the News-Press has endorsed 75 year-old Frank Hotchkiss (75!!) for mayor and a couple other guys for council..one guy is a gym teacher and you know what they say about gym teachers..those who can't teach, teach gym....

I ain't a moron..I got a degree from Trump University!

now Wendy endorsed Trump, only two newspapers did this and both are named NEWS-PRESS.. the other being NEWS-PRESS and GAZETTE out of Missouri which also owns local TV station KEYT...from the beaches to the valleys

both these numbskulls voted for Trump knowing full well he scammed Americans with his fraudulent TRUMP UNIVERSITY, dodged the draft in the Vietnam era, and dissed a real American hero and veteran, John McCain..... taken together, Trump is certainly not a patriot

and Frank Hotchkiss is pretty much Wendy's lapdog ....when Frank's ships come to town, they shut down the city streets to accomodate the tourists and drinkers!!




but will any of these yahoos do a thing about the drunk driving problem? everyday I read that someone DUI crashed their car in Santa Barbara..the latest was a guy who ran his truck up onto the sidewalk near the Arlington Theater..FIVE PEOPLE INJURED!!!

and yet the city keeps pushing booze....

elect someone with the balls to take on the liquor lobby...

and re-instate the police Drunk Driver Team

Dancin' in the Moonlight

everybody here is outtasight


 


so the Avocado Festival in Carp is over and bittersweet..mostly sweet...tons of people having a really good time...it was a big jamboree.. music... food and I think Sunday was more crowded..



I got there just in time to hear the salsa band and see folks dancing...at the Seal Fountain some chick was singing...I love these young singers blazing a trail for themselves!


 

on a side street not far from the main stage, a little church was giving away mini-bibles..so I took one to save my soul such as it is


 
then I grabbed a shrimp combo from the Thai booth.. I don't analyse or judge food, I EAT IT!!

 

very cool and fun weekend all under the marvelous Harvest Moon

Come All You Fair and Tender Ladies

Painted Ladies, please

 
ok October has been pretty spooky so far...while the days and nights have been gorgeous here with the harvest moon and sunny days, we lost Tom Petty and the poor souls in Vegas...



and the Eagles are playing the Grand Old Opry but without Glenn Frey..sorry but Vince Gill is no substitute for Glenn

I have no answers


 

but I do have opinions about the SB City Council race and mayor's race...vote for whoever you want but don't vote for Angel Martinez...he's white as white can be..he ain't no homie and talks rightwing gibberish about pensions and the shoddy state of Santa Barbara

why just today I was in Santa Barbara and it was lovely

trust your eyes..

not Angel eyes

Heaven Is In Your Mind

You ride on the swing in and out of the bars, Capturing moments of life in a jar



so I found a place where the milk and honey flow like wine..where the dolphins swim like fish...where the seals swim like dolphins

a place where the osprey are plentiful and they fish the bounty of the sea without hooks...'cept the ones on their feet that GOD gave them

now we had another incident in Las Vegas..crazed American 64-year old white male kills and wounds a bunch of people watching a country music concert outdoors...worst mass murder in America...

I love guns and support gun rights but when guns get distributed and/or used carelessly, our civil rights and human rights trump gun rights....no guns for crazy people



here we have a pic in the News-Press of some stupid looking chicks attending the non-profit Police Foundation party at Bella Vista SOD FARM in Summerland

ugh!

I swear to God, some Americans are clueless
