I AM STRAIGHT

[kpickle39]

Holy Moly - Jim is a porno star?  That is beautiful.....and funny as hell!   We used to pal around while we were on our program.  BTW - does anyone know how to get in touch w/Jim or his brother John?   Would love to chat w/them.

I am straight, hear me roar, problems don't ignore, just a little prinrik in my head. You don't know who I am, just a little ding, just like an accident ahead. I am me, leave me alone, just little ding dongs along, you know, just who I am. Bite an apple, peach or fig, Newton's in your head. Jim is just a guy, with a ding a ling aling, not to confuse the eye, don't ignore me hear me roar, just another door. Peace.

funny you mention that, clouds make me cry also, too bad, aI say, these are the days of  new improvement within, no more clouds or crap, only in the typographical error, Timothy Leary would have loved this.

[85 Day Jerk]

I started out in the second building of the original Straight, and we used to sing some pretty damn wild songs back then.  We had a lady who was the wife of a preacher of an Epistople Church off 30th Ave in St. Pete.  Their daughter was in the program and I can't remember her name offhand, but her mom had a piano placed in the building and twice a week she would play it and we would sing our asses off!  It was the only thing I looked forward to and the only thing that I did right when I was being a jerk, because I did not want to piss her off and possibly ruin the only good thing the damn place had going at the time.
One of the wildest songs that we got to sing was a bastardized version of "Won't Last A Day Without You" by the Carpenters.  We changed it to "Won't Last A Day Without Straight."  It was one of the few songs that I could really belt out loud.  After awhile we started singing the song the original way, and staff never noticed.  It was a favorite for Love Raps.  It was really good for bringing about a feeling of unity.  We even got into a thing during lunch where girls side or guys side would request a solo from one of the group "favorites."  I remember that I was called on quite a bit by the girls side to sing this one particular song.  I guess in a way it was their way of showing their admiration for the way I could take a shitty rap and make it into something just as long as I got called on.  Hey Marnie, you were there, got any angles on this that you could add?
