      So i took a giant leap. There is this guy thats works at the grocery store I go to and everytime I see him we check each other out. So the other day I told myself if the next time I go in there and see him and we check each other out, I am going to give him my business card with my number on it.

      Well Monday I had to work while my son stayed home. I wanted to pick him up a few things to tide him over until I got home. While I was at the store I looked to see if my guy was there. At first I didn't see him but as I walked to the check stand, bam! There he is stocking the wine.

      I proceeded to the check stand to pay for my items, looked up and low and behold he was watching me. YEA!

      So I took my bags out to my car, grabbed my business card, wrote my cell number on it and headed back into the store. When I walked in he was next to the produce isle which is right in front of the main doors I was walking in from. I walked up and stood infront of him and said: "I don't usually do this but everytime I come in here I can't help but notice you. If you are single, here is my number. I would love for you to call me!"

      I was very excited when he said, "I will definately call you, my name is Brandon." I gave him my name. we shook hands and I left to get back to work.

      Well he called me yesterday but I was not near my phone so he left a message saying he would love to go out for drinks or dinner sometime and he will call me to give me his number. I am so excited but extremely nervous. I'm not a dating person. Not comfortable with the whole dinner thing. I would rather go to a park or someplace casual and talk. My friends keep telling me to go to dinner, go do drinks but it freaks me out to the point I might have a panic attack with the idea of something as formal as dinner or drinks.

      Are guys okay with doing something simple? I haven't been on many dates. I would much rather take him with me to the dog park or on a walk rather then the whole movie/dinner/show kind of stuff. Is that acceptable?

  • Obscure Dylan Obscure Dylan

    • From: barrensoul
    • Description:

      A couple years ago I downloaded the Bob Dylan discovery which included most all of his works including a great deal of  bootlegs. The entire collection is now gone, about 5 gigs, due to human error. Because of at&t's inability to provide dsl in my rural area I don't foresee me re-aquiring this file but I still continue to search for Dylan songs where ever possible. Today I found an unreleased version of a song called Talkin' John Birch Society, converted to mp3 from the actual bootleg lp. The lp was then sold to a second hand store by it's owner. The song was possibly called talkin' John Birch Paranoid Blues and may be one of Dylans most obscure recordings. I say maybe because God only knows how many songs Dylan wrote and where they might be today. If anyone has his full discovery, I am trying to determine if this song was included. I am also interested what people might think is Dylan's rarest works.

      John Lennon’s Killer Denied Parole

      Mark David Chapman, the man serving time behind bars for the murder of John Lennon, has been denied parole, according to CNN.com. It is the sixth time he has been denied.

      Three parole board commissioners from the New York State Division of Parole had a video conference with Chapman. The three-member panel told the convicted killer about their resistance to his parole, because of “the disregard you displayed for the norms of our society and the sanctity of human life.” They concluded that Chapman’s “discretionary release remains inappropriate at this time and incompatible with the welfare of the community.”

      When Chapman was up for parole last time, in 2008, a similar statement was issued. His request was denied “due to concern for the public safety and welfare.” He was also denied in 2006, 2004, 2002 and 2000.
      This December will mark the 30th anniversary of the former Beatle’s murder at the hands of Chapman. He is now 55 and is serving a 20-years-to-life sentence at the maximum-security Attica Correctional Facility. Chapman will next be up for parole in August of 2012.

      Beatles Beat Queen in Poll

      It’s official: The Beatles are the most influential band of the last half-century. According to GodisintheTVZine.co.uk, the Fab Four topped a British poll by Zippo asking which artist or band had the largest sphere of influence over the past 50 years. The Beatles won 27.4% of the vote.

      Rounding out the Top 5: Queen with 19.6%, The Rolling Stones with 10.5%, David Bowie with 4.7% and Jimi Hendrix with 4.4%.

      This isn’t the only poll that Zippo, a company famous for their unique lighters, has conducted. Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” was voted the #1 song to wave your lighter to (followed by Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven”). Oasis were voted The Beatles of the Noughties. And Kings of Leon were voted the band most likely to replicate the achievements of Led Zeppelin.

      10 Giants of Southern Rock Guitar

      Most people agree that rock and roll is rooted in southern soil. Somehow, however, the phrase “southern rock” didn’t emerge until 1971, when the Allman Brothers Band released their seminal two-disc set, At Fillmore East. That album, more than any other, established the guitar as southern rock’s central instrument. Below are 10 guitarists who’ve worked the genre brilliantly, some of whom are pioneers, and others who are currently furthering the tradition.

       
      Duane Allman
       
      No guitarist is more closely associated with southern rock than Duane Allman. Inspired by Blind Willie McTell, Allman’s muscular tone and stinging bottleneck runs forged a template for every aspiring slide player who’s come in his wake. Employing a ’58 Les Paul sunburst as his go-to guitar, Allman fused blues, jazz, and rock in ways that dazzle to this day.
       
       
       
      Gary Rossington
       
      Harder rocking, more “boogie” oriented, and less jazzy than the Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd occupied (and continues to occupy) its own niche of southern rock. At the center of the band’s sound is Gary Rossington, whose guitar playing can soar or turn swampy, depending on the song at hand. Rossington’s biting Les Paul, coupled with the Firebird sting of the late, great Allen Collins, formed a greasy tangle on such classics as “Sweet Home Alabama” and “The Ballad of Curtis Loew.”
       
       
       
      Warren Haynes
       
      Along with his friend Derek Trucks, Warren Haynes has carried the southern rock torch with grace, dignity, and boundless talent. With his power trio, Gov’t Mule, Haynes offers up burly blues-rock fitted with punchy riffs, jazz-like time signatures, and incendiary slide work. Haynes’ stints with the Allman Brothers, when that duty calls, have been no less impressive.
       
       
       
      Rich Robinson
       
      Inspired by Nick Drake, Rich Robinson has employed a range of alternate tunings in shaping the Black Crowes’ guitar-centric sound. Alternating between his go-to Goldtop and his beloved ES-335, Robinson came roaring out of the gates on 1989’s Shake Your Money Maker, offering up infectious riff-rock in the tradition of the Faces and ’70s-era Rolling Stones. The Crowes put new blood into southern rock at a time when the genre most needed it.
       
       
       
      Dickey Betts
       
      As shown on At Fillmore East, Dickey Betts and Duane Allman could weave and spark like dual-guitar twins tethered to a telepathic command center. Following Allman’s tragic death, Betts emerged as a six-string stylist in his own right, often injecting country-tinged charm and a casual vibe into the Brothers’ material. Betts’ joyous instrumental, “Jessica,” boasts one of rock’s most memorable riffs.
       
       
       
      Billy Gibbons
       
      Texas boogie would likely have an altogether different sound (and look) were it not for the pioneering ways of ZZ Top. Playing his beloved “Pearly Gates” (a ’59 Les Paul), Gibbons continues to draw from a seemingly bottomless bag of blues-rock riffs. It’s worth noting, as well, that no guitarist has made better use of pinched harmonics in his solos.
       
       
      Toy Caldwell
       
      Toy Caldwell’s deceptively facile fretwork, coupled with bandmate Jerry Eubank’s languid flute lines, was a key component in the Marshall Tucker Band’s beautifully airy brand of southern rock. The classic-rock staples “Can’t You See” and “Take the Highway” are packed with Caldwell’s subtly expressive playing, while “My Jesus Told Me So,” from the band’s debut, remains one of southern music’s most affecting gospel-rock tracks.
       
       
      Derek Trucks
       
      The southern tradition of incendiary slide guitar and astral improvisations has no better torch-bearer than Derek Trucks. Captivated by the Allman Brothers Band’s At Fillmore East, Trucks (who’s the nephew of original Brothers bassist Butch Trucks) began playing slide at age nine and never looked back. With an SG as his choice instrument, Trucks adds elements of horn-based jazz and classical Indian music to his sensational fretwork.
       
       
      J.J. Cale
       
      Had J.J. Cale done nothing but write “After Midnight,” “Cocaine,” and “Call Me the Breeze,” his place in rock history would be assured. Beginning with Naturally, his 1971 one-man-band album, Cale established a style centered on murky vocals and groove-oriented guitar lines that merge country, blues and jazz. The term “laidback” has never been more aptly applied.
       
       
      Patterson Hood
       
      With their heady mix of fuzzed-up riff rock, rootsy acoustic shuffles and Crazy Horse-like excursions into the wild blue yonder, the Drive-By Truckers offer up an especially ambitious brand of southern rock. Favoring SGs and Gold Top Deluxes, frontman Patterson Hood generally tunes down a whole step in order to achieve the Truckers’ distinctive sound. The band’s sprawling 2001 opus, Southern Rock Opera, paid conscious tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd, the Allmans, and the Marshall Tucker Band.

      Music has a new face, we all heard of Lil Wayne. Now let the cat out of the bag, Modawg36 campaign on rap explains the voice of the late night street. 
       OAKLAND, CA, May 14, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The world is hit by a storm overnight - the audience applause the new upcoming act. The star is MOdawg36. Many people think he sounds like Eminem - call him crazy, call him cool. You be the judge and jury.

      Modawg36's freshman album, "Man 2 Man", deserves much credit for the material in this work of art. We predict a greatest hit album will follow the many sounds produced by Modawg36. Modawg36 learned some skills from veteran rappers such as Mc Eiht of Compton Most Wanted. The hit single Man 2 Man was recorded in Los Angeles in 2007. Mc Eiht and Modawg36 continued to work together to record three more singles.

      The drama one goes though to make a dream pill over the counter. This medicine is prescribed by Dr Modawg36: come get a high dosage listening to this masterpiece.

      This message has only one outcome; be cautious about what you eat and digest this music slowly.
