what's up yall,

been a lazy day, 1 walked in the back door around 6am this morning, that's the reason

played a private party for my buddy "sweet" willie payne, and all his hardcore chili friends, it was very cool, had a hog in the ground, and lots of music lovers,

"the gremlin" a true character,( and sweet willie's best friend, they met in jail several years ago) kept bringing me gifts out of willie's house, turns out that they were gifts that he had given to willie in the past, and now he decided to give them to me,

1. a real nice paper towel holder, all metal and the top pops off so you can replace the towels, horseshoes on the bottom, and the top that pops off is the shape of texas

2. a copy of an old arrest warrant/wanted poster for tom nixon, from 1877, i think it's cool how they worded stuff back then, here's what part of the poster read...

"alias tom barnes, five feet seven or eight inches high, 145 to 150 lbs. weight, 25 years of age, blue-grey eyes, light hair and whiskers; beard not heavy or long; mustache older and longer than beard." the gremlin just took this off willie's wall and give it to me

3. a football

4. the program for this years ljt festival

but in return, i gave the gremlin a copy of honky tonk heros, that's the book about billy joe shaver, my friend casey cainan gave it to me, and told me to pass it on, and i feel really good to know that i did my part by passing it on, and i honestly believe it will be passed on again.

friday night we played a battle of the bands at the crosswire, met some cool cats from www.south40band.com

overall we had a real nice weekend,

see ya soon
i hope
