A few things got me thinking … one of them I preach about every holiday period and now even more so that the warm weather is FINALLY here.

It’s party time right… ? Load up with taxi chits, get a D.D., take a bus but above all don’t drink and drive! My jokes and stories are bad enough. I dnon’t need any more help loosing listeners. I can do that all on my own!

Now a quick laugh.  Getting a tattoo can be painful and apparently, having one removed is even worse not to mention the cost.

The song “Moonlight Feels Right (Starbuck) reminds me of my first convertible… a candy apple ...

Maybe more so for the guys out there, but your first car and those thereafter are all memories… usually pleasant ones. You remember where you were, who you were with along with the highs and the lows of that time in your life.

I remember saving my money for about a month before I could pay cash for a brand new car radio with an 8 Track player! – I worked for a record company so I had tons of tapes to be company for me and my friends wherever my wheels ended up taking us.
