Thanks, Mom

I swear my mother makes noise just to get my attention and piss me off. Mind you, I am a 35-year-old woman that is only visiting and am a nervous wreck because my home just got run over by Irma, but she wants to gossip and talk about bullshit. I put my headset on to focus on check-ins, try to contact my island people, and listen to music... and she decides magically that she needs to turn up the television AND vacuum AND do the loudest dishes I have ever heard in my entire life. For fuck’s sake, let me be upset about my home. I don’t have time for your petty. It’s bad enough that I can’t have a fucking drink when that is really what I need. Fuck this.

Celebrating 30 Years Of ‘Fresh Air’: Rocker Joey Ramone

The Ramones helped launch the punk rock scene in the mid 1970s with songs that were short, fast and loud. In 1988, lead singer Joey Ramone spoke to Terry Gross about the band’s history.

TERRY GROSS: When the word “punk” was coined to describe the kind of music you and other bands were playing, what did you think of the word?

JOEY RAMONE: We got tagged “punk rock,” we always considered ourselves rock n’ roll. To me, like my feelings about the term “punk,” punk is like an attitude and some people are punks and some people aren’t. It’s really a state of being, the term “punk.” I mean, Elvis Presley was a punk. Jim Morrison was a punk. Iggy Pop is a punk, you know? Mick Jagger. So if you’re going to call us punk, I mean, no, I’m not going to mind. I think John F. Kennedy was a punk, you know?

Any of my book nerd friends read this? Finally got a copy. Had started reading it in high school and am finally getting back to it. Thoughts? #bibliophile #daysoff #womenwhoread

$16 tiny salad, $16 for a dark & diet and a bud light. Yikes. Instead of investing in a dying sport (horse racing) maybe we should invest in our airport and make it a truly international destination. #mimiforsenate2018 #seriouslysavagerumprices #treatourtouristbetter (at Cyril E. King Airport)
