ha! am listening to good old school songs while i'm picking my roto league team, going with lots of hits and goals, motley crue boys i call em

was funny, a buddy of mine showed me that neil young song, then one day i messaged him that song and he was like "WHY YOU SENDING ME THIS DEPRESSING BLEEPING SONG LOLOL" haha

I love me some old school tunes!

He does a great live version with The Band in the "The Last Waltz"...good stuff. That whole concert/documentary by Scorcese is awesome if you like classic rock.

No, he's never played the Steve Miller Band card! One of my Dad's Sisters told me a story about their Dad (my Grandfather, also named Steve Miller) getting calls from obviously young girls in the middle of the night telling him that they really like his music.

Kind of reminds me of the time when I was about 17, a buddy of mine and me at the time were walking around the mall in Kamloops, BC, anyhow these 2 young girls about our age walk up to him and said "HEY AREN'T YOU THAT GUY WHO PLAYS ON THE KAMLOOPS BLAZERS" ..... looking dumbfounded he pauses, looks sideways (we know what he is thinking) and he's like "UGH YEAH ACTUALLY I AM". They of course asked for his picture and he posed and when they walked away we were all like "WTF JUST HAPPENED" and we kept laughing. I still to this day don't know who they mistaken him for, that was back in 2006. I still remember the look on his face when he was going to make the decision to pretend to be this WHL'er ... dam that was a funny moment.

Came to this realization yesterday- I cannot watch a baseball game without being on my phone and I only turn on the Cubs game if they are in the lead or tied after the 6th inning. Baseball is too long, slow, and contains too much inactivity to continually hold my interest. It's great in background when doing something else.

Luck. Why do some people seem luckier than others. Why do some people seem to have the worst luck. Does attitude play a role? I tend to be a glass half full (it's usually half full of beer as well!) kind of guy and I try to make the best of what others might consider bad or unfair situations. I see others in the same business as me who end up with crappy job after crappy job often in a place they don't want to be. I often end up in jobs I ask for. I don't brown nose or have any friends in high places, so that's off the table. I do believe you often make your own luck, but I truly believe that dumb luck exists. Anyone have any theories?
