This post reeled me in like velveeta on a hook.<br />"To be old and free of ambition and responsibility is a kind of freedom it takes a lifetime to achieve"<br />Strong words that I hope I can find that status when I get to the retirement thing....maybe ten years hence. It has always been one of my self fears that after living the "responsible" life I would be one of those guys you hear about that dies two months after he retires. Part of the motivation to get out on my bike and push it. Prove all those fuckers wrong who would be standing in the line to collect on a lifetime of work and saving by me. <br />You are the fisherman TJ, keep playing us bottom-feeding carp with you tale!<br />Your friend, JimJim Bangshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11618333090634257257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3267224089554889479.post-57192793065458833872012-12-19T15:06:27.447-08:002012-12-19T15:06:27.447-08:00Piss in their dumpster and see what happens.

I somehow managed to gain audience before him and that was a trip. <br /><br />Then he moved to Australia and his devotees started emailing and asking for donations.

I've never been to LA but somehow all of this sounds so...right.<br /><br />I'll have to tell you about the time Tohner visited me at a bar where I was working the door.
