Have you been...

Well, if you have you are in a majority of twits who enjoy your short attention spans rather being than plagued by them. I am not a person who follows every single fad that comes down the pike but I generally try to get as much amusement from these fleeting fancies as I can, for awhile, and then move on. For those of you living under a rock- not exactly living the rock-n-roll life- Twittering is the latest way to keep up with your friends and your fav rock stars, celebrities and significant brothers ! ! LOL

Here's a brief example of what you might expect on your Blackberry if you want to keep up with the latest eaten ham sandwich:

Chris Cornell writes claptrap like:

"I just ate shrimp." or "Don't forget the ceiling. It never stops watching."

John Mayer writes funny stuff or the following:

"Heard the new U2 today. Not sure what to think. I'll have to wait for public opinion so I can think the opposite."

Dave Matthews inanities are unprintable and Taylor Swift's are unbelievably boring:

"Grammy rehearsals today with Miley. We ate an entire pizza in about five minutes."

(They will be looking like the Bobbsey Twins shortly. LOL)

Well, that's the basic idea except every one who are in the media in some form are on there writing this stuff and people actually want to read it. This is proof that just about every one needs to get a life! You might see a few pearls here and there from people like Yoko Ono or political banter from Colin Meloy but most of this stuff is more like what I put up above. It's a great time waster but for myself, I'd rather be watching paint dry to be honest.

Sweet kiss-les for your tweet missiles !

Strange Coincidences

Sometimes the scariest things can happen right under your nose and you may not even see them until after the fact. There are some phenomena you just cannot explain away. Recently on this blog I noticed that some dates were too coincidental not to say something about them. You may not have noticed but they glare me in the face like..well, that eye...

X D (LOL)

The first coincidence I noticed most recently is the fact that I started this blog the day after Janis Martin died. When I started this blog I didn't know she even existed. My original intent for this blog was to honor and write about Women in Rock and didn't know that someone I would write about a year and a half later had just died. I think that's too bizarre of a coincidence.

Here's another: My first entry on Women in Rock, which I started by writing about Wanda Jackson was posted one day after Janis Martin's birthday. Check the dates on these entries. That was hardly planned by me- but there it is- BEEE- ZAAAROOO!

Now, go back to my very first post. Who's picture do you see? Elvis. I don't know why I chose his pic out of all the pics of rock-n-rollers I have. Especially since I didn't intend to write about Elvis. Now look at my latest post on Janis Martin. The Female Elvis. Why did this happen? I can't tell you exactly but there must be a reason. Right? ?

Okay. Now you can go back to your regularly scheduled life. But you can't pretend that things happen without rhyme or reason. I learned a long time ago that if God is watching you he's also directing you if you're sensitive to what he says.
