Every so often I like to post this performance from Simon an Garfunkel’s 1981 Concert in Central Park. This performance contains the
and no, the Mumford and Son’s version is not better.
Joan Baez’s exquisite version is here.
Now the years are rolling by me
they are rockin’ evenly
I am older than I once was
and younger than I’ll be and that’s not unusual.
No it isn’t strange
after changes upon changes
we are more or less the same
after changes we are more or less the same
I caught a few minutes of the American Music Awards last night, how fucking pathetic that was. Consider this a gift my friends.

I was there with a friend who soon wouldn’t be–she planned on “stealing” a friend’s rent-stabilized apartment and needed my help. She couldn’t understand why I told her to stop the car filled with her belongings–long story–and tell my friends what she was doing.
Alliances were formed that day–life long apparently. Another sorta friend facebooked friended me so he can report back to her. I know because he told me. I don’t talk about my day to day life so she must be very bored!
Lucia ended up with the apartment when the original friend died way way too young.
This concert and song dredges up so much. Why can’t a song just be a song?
My parents were there, and as for a song being a song……I hear you, but I’m fond of songs that remind me of the times of my life.
Hope T-Day went well.

You’ve done so well I’m almost proud as a mother.
It always seems you’re either introducing me to something new or, as in this case, reminding me of a song I haven’t listened to in far to long. And I’m sure that was you’re whole point in posting this :)
I hope these days find you well, Miss Cooper.

Seriously, stop watching network TV. Only exceptions should be Superbowl & Olympics. It is socially outdated by at least 30 years, in modern awareness. According to network TV Moms stay home cooking and cleaning, as if average middle class could afford that.
I was thinking about how I’ve reached the point where I’m balance with as many days behind me as a head. Regardless it is always how I felt that matters.
It is getting harder to laugh even at myself when I’ve burnt those out.
Of the Angus situation (young adult/child star actor insulting his network TV show Two & A Half Men as filth) actor Zach Braff tweeted: “Two Men and an Ungrateful Fuck-toad”
That made me laugh.
I rarely watch TV I did turn it on that night though, and most of the time it’s just sad.
