One religion is right and the rest are wrong and you have to figure out what the right one is or you go to hell.

I'm very excited to announce that I will be opening for Steve Poltz this Sunday. 9/25 at The Siren in Morro Bay, CA. Steve is one of my favorite performers. He always puts on a fantastic show. I play a 25 minute set starting at 7:30 sharp. This will be fun!
Gonna see Weird Al in concert tonight for the first time. Very excited.
The Pacific ocean was sheet glass this evening and the surf was spectacular. Beautiful sunset, majestic moonrise, empty lineup and my son and I caught so many fun waves. Oh, and a whale breached. A comically perfect California evening after a day at the office. One for the books.

it seems reasonable that you should not be able to own a firearm until you turn 121.
The fine folks at Americana UK have done a write-up about my song Texas Legislators….
