About Me

My photo
Hello my fellow Politiores Troglodytes. This Blog is a collection of Posts, Poems, & Short Stories that I write on a daily basis. If you find it entertaining, informative, and controversial, then I have done my job properly. Thank goodness too, because Karma has been on my case of late. I'm supposed to bring fifty people into the fold or I'll have to give back the part of Einstein's brain I inherited. No, I'm not one of the Scientists who got a piece of his brain when he died. Karma said, "Eat this knowledge. It'll make you smarter!" The bargain I made with Karma was, if I could change fifty people into Politiores Populos, I would be rewarded with my very own Lamborghini. So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! Like what you're reading, then read on. P.S. Populo is Latin for people. Politiores is Latin for educated. Troglodytes is English for troglodytes. And Einstein's brain was stolen by Thomas Stoltz Harvey after his death in 1955 and eventually divvied up into 240 pieces. If you just read that last sentence, then you have just learned something and I'm just that much closer to fulfilling my commitment to Karma!

There Is Good Music All Over The World

Okay,
let's get something straight right away.
I'm a purist as far as music goes.
What I mean by this is,
I will listen to a song first before I will ever watch the band's video of the song.
Videos distract you from what makes a song good or bad.
A lot of major music stars use the video format to pull you in because videos are a form of entertainment all its own.
People will watch a video,
enjoy the video,
then purchase the music because it reminds them of the video they saw.
I'm the opposite.
I like to hear a song first.
To see if I can pick out all the different instruments
and to listen how each enhances the song.
Videos are secondary for me.
There is good new music all over the world
and I am tired of hearing how this decade or that decade has the best music ever.
Now to annoy mainstream pop listeners with the
Mongolian Band,

The HU is a band from Mongolia that blends heavy metal and traditional Mongolian throat singing. Their first two videos (“Yuve Yuve Yu” and “Wolf Totem”) immediately went viral garnering the band over 100 million views.
 
 This is,
If I Had Used Mongolian Throat Singing When I Played Live I Would Be Very Horse By Now
Jim Hauenstein

And,

“The only truth is music.”
- Jack Kerouac -

That is my story and I am sticking to it!
