After a weekend that was quite full of Fallout 3 playage (finally a level 20 after 60 hours) I fell in love with the soundtrack all over again. One of the most fun songs on Galaxy News Radio.

Each morning, a missionary advertises neon sign
He tells the native population that civilization is fine
And three educated savages holler from a bamboo tree
That civilization is a thing for me to see So bongo, bongo, bongo, I don't wanna leave the Congo, oh no no no no no
Bingo, bangle, bungle, I'm so happy in the jungle, I refuse to go
Don't want no bright lights, false teeth, doorbells, landlords, I make it clear
That no matter how they coax him, I'll stay right here

I looked through a magazine the missionary's wife concealed (Magazine? What happens?)
I see how people who are civilized bung you with automobile (You know you can get hurt that way Daniel?)
At the movies they have got to pay many coconuts to see (What do they see, Darling?)
Uncivilized pictures that the newsreel takes of me So bongo, bongo, bongo, he don't wanna leave the Congo, oh no no no no no
Bingo, bangle, bungle, he's so happy in the jungle, he refuse to go
Don't want no penthouse, bathtub, streetcars, taxis, noise in my ear
So, no matter how they coax him, I'll stay right here

They hurry like savages to get aboard an iron train
And though it's smokey and it's crowded, they're too civilized to complain
When they've got two weeks vacation, they hurry to vacation ground (What do they do, Darling?)
They swim and they fish, but that's what I do all year round So bongo, bongo, bongo, I don't wanna leave the Congo, oh no no no no no
Bingo, bangle, bungle, I'm so happy in the jungle, I refuse to go
Don't want no jailhouse, shotgun, fish-hooks, golf clubs, I got my spears
So, no matter how they coax him, I'll stay right here

They have things like the atom bomb, so I think I'll stay where I "ahm"
Civilization, I'll stay right here!

Until next time, this is Three Dog, Owwww Ooooooh!

Change, change, change.

Yes, it does seem that I have found a healthy (?) dose of change in the last day or so. Definitely did not want it, definitely did not deserve it, definitely am trying to be positive about it.



I think being positive is all it's cracked up to be. Why? Well, because, whenever I take the positivism approach I usually end up either indifferent or feeling OK about normally depressing events. So, here I go again.

Had a great weekend. Made it up to Berea--and by Berea I mean spending all of 3 hours in Berea and the rest in Richmond and Mt. Sterling (McCoy's place) where we watched UK demolish LSU and had one of the best nights in a LOOOONG time, respectively.

Speaking of that night. It was realllllly good. Also, one of the best drunken impromptu playings of Gin and Juice (the Gourds version) with myself on guitar, McCoy on bass and Hargis leading the choir to a rousing rendition. Fucking A it was good enough to have been in an Avett Brothers show.

Next weekend looks promising; that crew is most likely traversing to Nashville for some good times and maybe to see the UK vs. Vandy game. Who knows.

Langhorne Slim and Drive-By in Lexington in April. Countdown started.

Trey is at the Ryman in a couple weeks...fuck I need to get a ticket.
