The Growling Texas Beer Bar

If I have a beer they call me an alcoholic, but if I have a Fanta, they don't call me fantastic.

Go figure.

I think this whole thing is easy. All of it. All aspects of life. It just takes about 20 years of torture and an additional 20 years of contemplation in order to even begin to see and understand.

Lesson there.

Strawberry Moon tonight is appropriate.

As a consequence of my insatiable ego, I get to spread some marginal insight to the world. Something many motherf**kers crave badly. They really do...
Smart people would say "don't reveal anything" but they forget the pull of vanity...
I'll put myself out there in an embarrassing way. Besides, who the f**k is gonna challenge me?? You?
Here is the message:
Operate on the level that you are Deserving, that you are Beautiful and that you are Unbeatable. We have to think this way, otherwise we are not likely to make it.
People that are rooting against you are projecting their own fears and inadequacies.
I personally have one year left here, beginning Tuesday, June 30th.
I will do my time left in a very meaningful way. Like I always do.
It is no longer about "business" for me.
Do you think I am concerned about making it another 12 months? No, of course not.
It's going to happen regardless.
Anyone that ever doubted me either went insane, became irrelevant or disappeared. Those are the facts.
And the same should go for you.
But I am much more interested in finding some semblance of freedom. I don't know what 'enjoying life' means to you, but I'm having to think very much outside of the box, which is why I am sharing this. My platform, right?

If anyone should ask you, tell 'em I got those Saint James Infirmary blues.
