I'm living a pretty simple life these days. Oaxaca really is a wonderful place to live. It's as full of problems as any place. However, it is also blessed with so many positive aspects, that one can find a balance here. I work in the garden and watch the world go by.... and count my blessings that whatever bullshit I spout is only heard by the plants and an occasional goat or two.... and of course, there is this blog.
I add my little bit to the billions of bytes out there. Still, it is crazy to watch people say or do the most outrageous things and then act surprised that other people notice.... and then it goes viral. So, knock on wood, I have not achieved that notoriety... yet.
Back before there was the internet, I regularly laid eggs and pissed people off..... I once got a review in the Boston Globe that said I was "too stupid to realize I should have been embarrassed." But I knew it was bullshit because the same critic said, at a different time, that my music was "better than sex." Hah.. how would he know? I mean, he was a music critic. (Rim shot, please.)
It was all bull then and it still is, but I like this type of bull much better. These guys are my neighbors. The white bird is a constant companion to them. They have some sort of symbiotic relationship... well, actually, I think the birds get more out of the deal than the bulls, but what do I know?
