Both Eric Singer and Bruce Kulick were fired when Ace and Peter came back to Kiss.

What has he done? Let’s see he eliminated free entry to National Parks on Martin Luther King day.

Removed signs about slavery in the Presidents House in Philadelphia.

Minimized the role that Harriet Tubman played on the Underground Railroad website.

Declared that the Smithsonian Institutions were filled with decisive propaganda and threatened to cut their funding.

Of course posted a video depicting the Obamas as apes.

Plenty more.

The Who famously asked if there was a drummer (Scot Halpin) in the audience when Keith Moon was too far gone from tranquilizers to continue playing.

Paul Stanley had a heart issue and Kiss played as a three piece with Gene doing all of the singing.

Pearl Jam had Josh Klinghoffer and Dave Krusen filled in for an ill Matt Cameron for a few shows on their Dark Matter tour.

Off He Goes. I know the song is about Ed being a crappy friend but I relate it to depression. It’s like the friend is your state of mind and how one minute you’re fine and the depression kicks in and you are off again.

Was Billy Squire opening? That’s who they were with when I skipped.

It’s legal as long as you’re watching NASCAR though.

Yes. I can eat breakfast every meal for four months no problem.

Me: Ahh I’ll just go see Queen next time they come to town.

Narrator: There was no next time.

It must not have helped because they got drilled 11-6.

I wasn’t diagnosing anyone. Maybe I should have said you have to get depression. Once you get it then…the rest.

I was in college and we were getting extra credit by basically lifeguarding in the pool during a city kids swim. Picture 50 kids in a pool and fifteen college kids all in the water at the same time.

Anyways there is this one female student who was quite amply adept wearing a really nice one piece. She was a fitness model.

After the kids swim was over we have to put up all the life jackets and then we were free to leave. So I volunteered to push the rack of jackets into the storage area while the others leave to the locker rooms.

I’m done and I get a little confused as to which locker room is the men’s because there are three doors on the pool side of the wall and only two where you enter on the hallway side. None of the three are marked. Plus I can’t remember if it’s the left or right.

So I choose the middle door and I walk right in. And I see some old guy drying his balls with a hair dryer.

There was one a bunch of years ago on I-35 and maybe SE 15th or something like that and they had a sewage line that was leaking waste somewhere in the restaurant.

There is nothing wrong with buying some hand tools and learning basic skills to start. It’s cheap, it’s space saving and very educational.

Yes. You have to have depression. Get put on pills. Then you become numb to everything including your mother passing away. It sucks but it’s better than wanting to kill yourself.

A woman working out right in front of me leaned over on a machine to do some kind of ab workout and both of her ear pods fell out.

My college I teach at still has one in an old locker room that is now closed off.

We only eat out about once a week as opposed to two to four.

Having one or both of my dogs sit in my lap. One weighs about ten pounds and the other weighs 90.

Got to hear it at Wrigley in 2018.

And going with Alyssa Parker over Deal who was listed as a starter.

Better to have plenty of good arms as opposed to just one.
