Imagine all the drugs…
I forked over the $248.99 for 1 month of drugs… it hit me as I was standing in line… do you realize how many illegal drugs I could buy with that kizzash? I could keep myself tripping for the entire 3 weeks it takes for my insurance to kick in, and probably have enough cash left over for a hit of Ketamine or two. It’s a sad world we live in when prescription drugs are way more expensive than the ones you get on the street. My vacation this year is to the land of Correct Brain Chemistry, I guess.
My latest obsession: making a family tree. Why? I don’t know. I mean, I’m not even genetically related to any of these people. It’s still kind of fun hunting through records and stuff, though. It’s kind of like a scavenger hunt, or collecting baseball cards. Let’s see if we can find the illusive record that shows where Jacob Schoenwald’s mother was born! (haven’t found it) I did find his draft card for WWI though. He and Grandfather, Aunt Julia, and Grandfather’s mom (her name was apparently Mrs. Jacob Schoenwald) all lived at 222 W 15th St. in Manhattan in 1915. Hunting up Moth’s people isn’t too difficult– there aren’t too many Sidney Schoenwalds in the world. However, on Pad’s side of the family it’s another story. Come on, ancestors, did you really have to recycle names left and right? Besides, HOW MANY Daniel McSweeneys were there in county Cork in the 1870s? A little originality, please?
This is taking over my former mini-obsession with Lee Harvey Oswald. I don’t know why I find LHO so fascinating, I just do. Dude had a totally messed up childhood, decided he was a Communist, moved to the Soviet Union and tried to kill himself there when he was denied Soviet Citizenship, married a Russian woman and had two small daughters when he shot JFK… or DID HE? (shoot JFK that is, we know he had 2 daughters). Was he framed? Was he coerced/brainwashed/blackmailed? The whole Jack Ruby thing was a little too convenient, too…
The new Futureheads CD is out, and I really want to hear it, but thanks to my new vacation I won’t be able to buy so much as a carton of milk until June 18. At least I won’t cry about it!
