The Nazis had The Gestapo
Russian had the Cheka, Kremlin has the KGB
The Iranians have The MOIS
The North Koreans have MSS
Now the US has ICE!?!?
Why can't US citizens see this obvious comparison to the authoritarian dictatorships and blindly accept it. WTF is wrong with them people?

Decided to start playing out live again. 2+ year hiatus.
So in lieu of this decision. I bought a new acoustic. Guild OM320
Website said no case, but came with soft gig bag and a woody soundhole pickup!
Wish me luck on my renewed ventures. My voice/vocals out of shape. Gonna Def need some practice.

I was born in 68. Graduated high school, 86. Thought it was cool; reversed numbers. 68, 86. At 47, I probably thought about 86, tho in 86, I never thought about what life would be at 47. Now I'm 57. Still don't think about 86. Nor 47. Only 68. I'll probably die at 74. Can't wait for 2029.
