Tuesday writes cheques its butt can’t cash.

The core of the blogosphere, thoughts and feelings that just might not matter:
Welcome, friends, to the first day of business, activity, and mirth here at the all-new southpawjones.com. I feel so modern. I feel “with it” for the first time in decades. I am going to blog to my heart’s content about my boss, my landlord, my commute, dog, chest hair, and girlfriend.
Actually, I’m not. At least not yet. For now, I just want to present some web-based info-tainment that only my wonderful friends and I can provide. My goal is five (5) chunks of fun five (5) times a week. I’ll take weekends off for the good of all. Can you dig it? (You actually have the ability to leave Comments and let me know whether or not you can dig it!)
I’m excited about this new venture, and I hope you’ll bookmark the page. You know, add it to your daily or weekly routine. They say that an apple is more energizing than coffee in the morning, but they lie. They will say anything to get that moist, sinful fruit into your mouth-place. NAY, the most energizing daily force is THE SOUTHPAW JONES FUN TIME GAZETTE. Enjoy, tell your friends, and let me know what you think! Thanks!

A look at our past, / seventeen syllables and / three lines at a time:
Big Bang or maybe
six days of work, one of rest.
Somehow, it begins.

Moving pictures because technology allows it:
Check out this short video from the Kerrville Folk Festival 2004. I’m performing “Everyman” in a tent for Idgy Vaughn and Michael Shay. Very, very late at night. My voice is on life support, but my hair is standing strong!

Um, LOVE it. The Gazette that is. How did you make yourself into a comic strip? Who thought of the straighforward yet punchy layout? How do you use words like “nay” without sounding like a ninkempoop? How did Abi take that picture while driving? I guess I’ll have to come back to learn more.
I was riding when I took that picture. I’ve been known to drive and click, but that time I was relishing my spot in the back seat.
