You'll Shoot Your Eye Out



The Nomad's don't grok firearms. Nazz Junior wants an air gun for the holidays. I said "no". He asked why and I told him because he would shoot his eye out. Yep- really happened, just like the movie!




In other news... DON'T ASK DON'T TELL has been repealed!!!!! I support the right of anyone to volunteer to serve in the armed forces. Especially if it is not me! Gay soldier's can shoot just as straight as hetero's. Though I would prefer that there were no reasons to have an army in the first place!


Lastly, holy shit is Grinderman 2 awesome!

In The Ghetto (in the ghetto)











As the snow flies
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'
A poor little baby child is born
In the ghetto
And his mama cries
'cause if there's one thing that she don't need
it's another hungry mouth to feed
In the ghetto

People, don't you understand
the child needs a helping hand
or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day
Take a look at you and me,
are we too blind to see,
do we simply turn our heads
and look the other way

Well the world turns
and a hungry little boy with a runny nose
plays in the street as the cold wind blows
In the ghetto

And his hunger burns
so he starts to roam the streets at night
and he learns how to steal
and he learns how to fight
In the ghetto

Then one night in desperation
a young man breaks away
He buys a gun, steals a car,
tries to run, but he don't get far
And his mama cries

As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man
face down on the street with a gun in his hand
In the ghetto

As her young man dies,
on a cold and gray Chicago mornin',
another little baby child is born
In the ghetto
