I had a totally different idea about what to write today but my parents ending up involved in a car accident (luckily they are OK) so whatever I was going to write just doesn’t seem as important today.
Kudos for the death of Osama but the pessimist in me just cringes waiting for someone like Trump to question the validity of his death. That’s all I’ll say about that.
Went to the House of Guitars and saw a metal band from Syracuse called Jayne Dracula. They have a neat costume and make-up thing as shown below, esp the bassist with his Frankenstein look. Reminds me of the Munsters.
You can check them out at www.myspace.com/6jayne6dracula6 or www.facebook.com/JayneDracula.
