You can get anything you want at Alice's restaurant.... Except Alice!

When I did a morning radio show on mix 102.5 I had to buy my own copy of Alice's restaurant to play on the radio.(the station wouldn't buy me any music)  I worked on Thanksgiving just so I could play it. It's a movement sing it with me when it comes around here on the guitar..... You can get anything you want at Alice's restaurant...

It's as Thanksgiving as Les-man from WKRP in Cincinnati reporting about their turkey give away.

Mr Carlson is throwing Turkey's from a helicopter. "The turkeys are hitting the ground like bags of wet cement".     

Poor people for breakfast!

I've never eaten or ate a poor person
but I know I hate them anyway!
 I hate them on a rotisserie,
turned until their blood and juice are dripping with Justice
from our Judicial system
 I hate to see them in line counting dimes
to buy some gas and make it to work on time
I hate not to have five bucks to throw their way
with nothing to say
I've never eaten or ate a poor person
But I sure know what it taste like.
Eaten or ate, Alive or dead, Whatever proper English is
I'm just a poor person and I hate it.

I'm just a dumb roofer and I write dumb poems. Even still I see something wrong with this.
  We can't get an honest minimum wage requirement. Were taxed on our income and every thing we purchase. It seams to me this hurts more people than it could help. they can't make a healthcare
plan. but this will pass before they break for the holidays. Another scandal at capitol hill. Their raping the working....slight-of-hand-or-muslim-band.html
 I wrote "Welcome to the United States" on my way to work. I was working for L.H Smith construction in Tecumseh Michigan. I pulled safely to the side of the road and wrote it on a McDonald's bag. When I got to the job Larry asked me why I was late? He acted like he was gonna hit me with his hammer when I told him "I stopped to write a poem".

And why a 10 year plan?

Senate Republicans’ tax plan raises taxes on families earning less than $75,000

It’s a workers’ party now.

Congress’s Joint Committee on Taxation (basically the Congressional Budget Office for tax policy) is out with a fresh distributional analysis of the Senate version of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, and the news is great if you happen to earn more than $500,000 or so per year.

For those of more modest means, however, the news is not so good. By 2027, after most of the individual cuts in the bill expire (and the corporate cuts remain), households earning between $75,000 and $100,000 will see, on average, no tax cut. And households earning less than $75,000 per year will see, on average, a tax increase.

Lily Batchelder, a tax professor at NYU who used to be the chief tax counsel for the Senate Finance Committee, has the chart:

New estimates: Senate Republican tax plan would on average *raise* taxes on all income groups earning less than $75K by 2027, according to nonpartisan official estimators JCT. 1/2

my birthday 11/18/1967

I thought I was fifty last year. But my girlfriend Christina pointed out to me that I was mistaken.
I wouldn't be fifty until next year. (thanks babe) Next year is here.....
This is the very first birthday I've done without my dad. I can't even remember what I ever got for my birthday. But my Dad was always there. I don't think that I ever asked for a lot.I don't know that life was fair to my dad. Or maybe it was me... I don't know.how life goes......who's gonna sing me happy birthday?what-color-are-you-does-it-matter.html
