snip Mike's 'Yoof Of Today' rant


Mike, I didn't need to see this post today! - I'm having one of *those*

days - 'do ah wanna fly, do ya wanna see me try'
The other day got my foot caught in flex & broke missus's lighted two sided
mirror & broke the non magnifying side, gotta fix it.
Teaspoon concern?? here its 23!!! and god knows how many assorted/chipped
coffee cups.
Change flip flops and replace a pair of dull shoes - not a logo in sight.
Those clackers held with wooden clothes pegs??
Keith I'm 60 already..'University Hairdressing Student' Cheez ... Late
afternoon, sandwich in hand, switched on TV, 'Salon' girl getting colonic
irrigation, shot of exit clear tubing, put sandwich down uneaten ...yes
times have changed.

Not got time for a rant, getting sound gear checked & loaded for a weekend
gig, 12 piece band, Saturday, Inverness, (Falcon Square 11am - 1pm, 2-5pm)

I think what I need is:

To find my shaving mirror.
Cut the number of teaspoons down, round here.
Follow the 'smart money' and jack this ng in.
Get a life.....


More, later (probably).......


'Don't give up'.......

OK, got the leads in the wrong way round (nothing new there!) - at least I
got the '4 years' bit right!

OK. 'Probably' then.....


Mike, I *never* give up - I actually *invented* the 'wot it takes' and the
'die trying' methodologies and have applied them all my life - there's a big
difference in sticking with something that matters and switching something
off that don't matter when it gets boring!

Anyway, today is a better day (maybe Don's right - maybe I just can't *do*
Thursdays! :-):

The shaving mirror turned up. (Some **** had left it behind the telly,
apparently.........)
A savage cull of the teaspoons *has* been executed. (It's simple - use the
wrong size spoon and yer cup o' tea suffers.....)
I'll mebbe hang around for a while yet and have some 'fun'. (I checked - my
'Year Of Self-Imposed Good Behaviour' has just expired!)
I've also remembered that I *had* a life and it's fekkin' wore me out!

So look for another (Post) post or two in the next few minutes! :-)

(I know *someone* who will be happy.....!! :-)
