shit got you down?

has the world turned into a massive crap show?  have you got the blues, the blahs, the ughs? 
well then take a gander/listen to this video circa 1980 of the great punk/psychobilly band, the Cramps.  
this is, in my humble, & old man, opinion, how rock&roll should be:
sweaty, sexy, profane, dangerous, & even a little silly
the singer Lux Interior passed away almost 10 years ago
Nick Knox the drummer died this year
but don't let that sad knowledge get in the way of digging on this great band
cuz they got the cure for what ails you
even if you get a bad dose of the Cramps!

hi clifford: we are, presently, fine. the massive Camp Fire, that obliterated a whole fucking town, Paradise, is about 90 miles north of us. the sky is thick with dark smoke. today was better than yesterday. yesterday, the skies, the air, felt, smelt and looked like something from an apocalyptic movie. the fires are horrible. climate change is changing right now. these wildfires are a proof that a long dry summer produces explosive conditions that just need a spark to become a conflagration. california is no stranger to wildfires especially during summer when we see no rain. but fire season is now all year round with fires that are more frequent and devastating. but thank you, clifford, for your thoughts. we are fine and sacramento is not in danger, as of yet, of going up in flames.
