Detroit Rot in Hell

Today my blood boiled when I figured out that the amount I pay in taxes is roughly 235 dollars every week. This includes property taxes, Detroit city income taxes, and the amount that is automatically taken from my check every week. This does not include the mandatory health insurance I am forced to buy, which covers 200 dollars each day of a hospital visit (total joke). This does not include fuel taxes and sales tax. Thanks to Rick the putrid Dick Snyder, our gas tax has just gone up. We already had some of the most expensive gas in the country.

As I drove to work in the falling snow early this morning, I was wondering why the hell I did not see a single plow truck out. I was driving to get to work and I needed to get there. The first two days of work every week go to taxes! Where would the government be without suckers like me! I was wondering on the way home, why have people put up with this for so long? There should be a revolution.

I guess too many people have jobs subsidized by the government. You know, the good kind of jobs that have all sorts of benefits like paid sick days, 5 weeks vacation time, pensions, and retirement crap. I guess those people are making out. Oh well.

I am so glad Detroit gave all kinds of tax breaks for little Caesars stadium. (they used MY money) I'm glad they named it that. I hate sports, and I especially hate the red wings. Something called "red wings" should taste good, not be a bunch of stupid people getting all excited about stupid boring sports.

My voice is being silenced by the liberal media

Some people may be aware that a group I perform in, the Ill Itches, will be having a record release this Friday at the Marble bar here in Detroit. The band has done several interviews where the interviewer emails the band questions and we each answer them. In one such interview, all of my answers were omitted, and I heard from the other band members the music journalist got mad because I didn't take the interview seriously enough. I feel like I am in high school again. Here is a link to the interview as published: Ill Itches DeepCutz Interview. It was partly this incident with this interview that inspired me to start writing my own blog again. I really meant no ill-will with my answers to these questions. I just felt like the questions were "leading questions". You know what I'm talking about, questions where the interviewer is really looking for a specific response from the subject. I know the interviewer wanted me to get all sentimental and retrospective ab

That time I bought a Guitar for $1 at Guitar Center

Image
When I had just graduated high school, I was still working my job at a grocery store. I made enough money to go guitar shopping. I used to drive from rural Lenawee county to Toledo OH to get to Guitar Center. One day I heard a radio ad for a Guitar Center Labor Day Sale on September 5th, 2005. At this point in my life, Guitar Center was something I had only recently discovered. This ad was extra special... the loud demanding voice on the radio ad claimed Guitar Center was going to be selling guitars for just $1! The night before the sale, I drove down to the Guitar Center and arrived at about 10:30 pm. I began waiting at the front door of the business. I remember texting some of my friends from the grocery store I worked at, they ended up joining me about an hour later. Then, two other small town guys that went to my high school showed up randomly. The first 6 or 7 people in line, (me being first of course) were all from Lenawee county! I thought this was sort of funny because we a
