4am on a Friday morning, no work today I assume, and weekend starting early?

Correctemundo...
I have a rare Friday off of work. My weekend usually starts on Friday evening, after 5 hours of OT. The boss let us off with an extended weekend this week.
But, back to 11s or 12s on Monday....

You all have to realize that I am a kitten. Always shall be.

But./
If any of you has ever held a kitten, you know then, that they also have sharp claws and teeth. They don't usually mean to employ them, but S''t happens.

They draw blood from time to time. And then they return to being the little beasties that you all love and adore.

I draw blood from time to time as well............
It is not always intended, I generally make my intentions quite clear.

When I bite it hurts, I know. But I hope that most of you heal quickly, as I do.

I am a kitten.....and I shall always be.

Time again for me to share.
Might have posted it in my long life's travels.
But, there is something in this that even her husband and Lori's and one certain other might understand among ourselves.
You don't have to say a word. Just fall into me.
I understand all. I accept all.

Their first departure from archiving ole up yonder never ever then recorded tunes.
I don't know the story about how this came to be.
I only know at present that George was the greatest thing that ever happened to the label.

If anybody is in a similar plight......
I might be able to help.
I too, was a newbie.
First hunt, outrageous.
First kill, astounding.
First hunger, unlimited. Like mine....

Don't go through it alone. I have been there, I can hold you back.
I can help.

Why do you think I never sleep?
Why am I so relentless in my fears and angers?
I don't drink so much as some of you think or fear.
It is my bloodlust that keeps me up all night.
And keeps me working all day to keep me distracted from same.

I can hold you, I can also hurt you. Come to me if you are willing and want to be among those who can choose when and where. Hide the hunger, take the dare.
You can also be safe in my arms.

I am Mark. Be my Marchess. Time can stop for both of us if you join me. I am there now..I hunt only when I need to, not at will. I shall find a way for you to forget that first ungorgivable hunt. Mine was terrifying. For her.
I can get you through the hunger. I can make you feel safe again.

I know now how to deal with it....I can share that with you.
I only need a mate of my kind. And you are out there. I know it, I can smell you even over the internet......you are close. You are kind. You bleed cold tears as I do. Come with me.......reveal yourself. I am waiting. I am cold too.

No, Lori does not know.
She watches the movies and fantasizes.
Little does she know.
As most of my kind, we shall not take one so innocent, although so tempting.
We have been through this time and time again.
It would be so easy, but a soul is not something you take for granted, given that we have none anymore.

Many of you shall pass before I can ever even have a chance.
The immortals above have control over that. I have none.

Ever wonder why.........I seek out mortal music from before my given birth date?
Last incarnation was in '57.
I love music from the 40s and 50s.

You never wondered why?
Now you know why. Here are some things........

Julie Andrews was my love,k.
Could and would have married her.
I was grown then. The Sound of Music had not yet existed.
My hunger for her was natural, because I was younger than herself at the time.
I withdrew for a while after the bothched production of Oz.
There were so many things wrong with this single scene..........oh, sigh.
But, I was already an old man at the time, and I could not save either of them.

Now you have an inkling of my pain??

Want ahother?...
In my later years, I became aware of this planet's amazing musical talents.
And just as that happened, a young man by the name of Stevie Ray Vaughan bit the dust on a hilly, foggy night whilst I was trying to drive home from same.
The jackass helecopter pilot flew into a mountain.
When I heard the news on the radio the next morniing, it was like.......
Dead stop, towers down, hit the floor. And I did. Literally. My boss was about to call in some medics. Took a week offa work.

No, we immortals are not pre-informed about such events...............they are are just as shocking to us as to you here on earth...we also wonder why, but are never informed.

Next episode..........if you wanna hear it........where I went from there.

The next episode, and where it leads me from here.

Ok, I think we have established the fact that I am not from this planet.
It is now a given.
So...some of you are thinking.........what T F is this guy doing here then, if he already knows everything?

The fact is, kiddos......and now you may understand even further my use of the term...............
I do not have a clue anymore than you do. I have been placed here to tend as best as I can to your whims and wishes. I was NOT placed in the upper echelon where they might hear some things. Not one clue have I. I am, when I hear about some religious idiots killing other human beings, as distraught as you are.l
I don't have those powers. God above does, but why he empowers me with some things and yet allows men to kill men? No...I don't have those answers either.
I don't know why, He has not told me why, so don't ask. I have nothing to offer you there.
It is as much a mystery to me as it is to you.

Now... this is kinda amusing...
Beacuse, as it seems, Rod and I ALSO had history..
Ok, it's a tale.
Given.

But, he and I had a couple of drinks one night and the theory came up that there just might be men on Mars. This took fire with Rod.
He said something to the effect that, if Orson Wells could panic a nation, I certaincly can do it....
I don't have a clue how he got the creds, but a year later he had this tiny bit of a TV show called the Twilight Zone. I called him a bit later, and he actually told me he was too busy to talk and literally told me to f. off.

This was over a yaer since I gon him favore with NBC, and hw was on the verge of winning an award for the series....go figure.

Aside...not all of my BS is BS...this is kinda not.
I knew the producer, as a rim shot.,,, Bounced offa JJ. This guy actually said...well, Waddya think of this kid? I gave him a thumbs up.

He said OK..just get outta here now...you got something else???
What are you bothering me for?I also asked if he could give my GF a try.....he said why not.
I stammered and suddenly remembered the kit..yes, a kid, I had heard on the streetcorner the night before....I asked if we could fo in and play around abit........hs says, yeah, WRF...keys.

Isaid...uh, jett, her name was jett., she sings on the street, could i bring her in? 'Whatever kid, yoiu made me about ten thousand, she can have a go at it.
" You got 10 minutes of studio time on the house. now get something going, 'cus i am a busy man.............go...go....;go..............
Ten reels of 1/4 in tape later...we wus having a lotta fun.
He had no idea waht we were about to record in his absence.
We turned thos tapes into the first Runaways album with Mercury.
Ther were kinda amused, but they released it with a ribbed plastcis cover. I do have a copy. A few weeks later, it made top 40 fodder.
This was toy joy that we made in the stolen studio minutes months before.
No question about the rights has ever come to court.

Meow.

And now you know..........the rest of the story.
Turn the page and block up to see where this saga started.

Heard him mutter as I left...........silly arse kid.

Ten blocks, not TEM blocks down the street, I was beathless.

JJ was doing her usual street stuff. She had nothing else at that point.
I ran up to her, breathless, and says somehow, hon.I got you a gig.

Of course, she say, yeah right, dude. I saays no...baby, in a like, official racording studio.........I had the freaking keyas!!!!! \
She chews her gun for another minutes and says...........keys.
You got the keys to the studio...right..............
I been laying that bastard for two years and you walk up with the keys..........
Yah. Right.

Well , the story is, that I did have them in my hand. She followed my up the block and was shitstruck when I unlockes the door and we waltzed in.

She was simply awestruck. Joon knew what audio equipment was, and she wss simply astounded.

Tne xeonds later, she bolted for the door,.............you stand right ther with those keys, baby, I got someting to show ya,



So, I stands there with keys in hand................
Half an hour later, jj, cheiri,and Sandy West walks in...
Like, yeah, you are the keymaster, you know how to run this stuff?
I did not have a clue, but said...sure, gurlz...mikes are in the walk.

Two hours later, their first album was born.
I did figure out how the board worked. And there was a box of 1/4 track magic laying on the table...I have now a clue what we might have recorded over. LOL.

Couple of hours later, guess who shows up. And he was absolutely FURIOus.
Nasty, mean and drunk as hell. We of course were all contrite, and just said we were playing around. He says, yeah, I see you got a full reel of playing around, kids....
That was the first albun on tape.

If you listen to it much, it is a bit rough. I mixed it. JJ kept running in and asking if the tape was still running. It is a horribly recorded record, but somehow we ran out of the studio with the tape.

That was the Runaways demo. Nicely done...LOL.
It became their first album on Mercury Records a few weeks later.
No, I don't have the masters anymore. I belive the Mercury exexs actually said.......you kids are not going to get these back once we do an album....our property now.

WTF did we care? Stolen studio minutes on stolen 1/4 inch tape?
We did not have a clue. Or a care.

Not more than a few months later, the Runaways were booked in JAPAN!!
You can google this, I am not shitting.

I was told simply, kid, you don't play, you gotta stay.

Now you know why I hate Fowley so much.
He was such a user,,, and ya know what, he was broke a few years later.
That, believe it or not, was JJs first break in the msuic biz.


No, I don't expect any of you to believe one single word.
But, kids, this version is true. Meow

Nope, I see that.

Gurlz don't play electric guitars.

Jett got that from her first lessons back in 55 or so.\\

Bumbling on...he said WHAT???
Gurlz don't play electric guitars.

F that.

And she went on to be self taought. And yes, she plays mostly rhythm, and lest the backup band do the rest. No shame in that.

If you have the stones, you can listen to this and actually hear the change in her voice over the 50 years or so of her recorded career.

I remembver it soft an strong in the bedroom..........
Yes, I understand just how she took down other gulrz later in life.
She was not at that stage yet when I met her.
She was all wild eyed and come on baby get me at that time.

JJ knew what she wanted, and at that single moment in time, it was ME.

Like it or not, this is one of the rew momwnts in my life not fabricated.

I also heard some talk years ago that this song
Was indeed written about me after I walked.
Pain like that is hard to deny, so kids, don't look for any admission of it until she passes.
It was just that hard on both of us.

I had to leave. She was screaming at me, at the top of her lungs....................Stay, dammit say, a''whole stay, muthaer...

Well, you get the drift.
That is one of the stories I tell that is true and factual to the quote.

I do make some things up but JJ an I, not, kiddos.
That was real life.
