But Johnny told a different story when they went to New York. Johnny said that he and moz went to buy records and clothes. I think Morrissey is lying about it. I feel like he knows the real reason Joe Moss left, but instead of telling the truth, he acted like Moss and the rest of the band were planning to get rid of him
Are you confusing the trip they took in early 1984 with the tour in 1986? The 84 one seems very harmonious and productive, but on the later one things seems to have changed.
Some book or article refers to the Joe Moss thing (dont remember where) that he (and mike and andy) wanted the whole homoeroticism thing toned down a lot. Seems to woken some bad feelings among them that they should be so "flagrant". The song What do you see in him later became Wonderful Woman at I think Joes insistence. If he was a spokesperson for the other two or speaking for him self, i dont know.
The whole deal with the Joe Moss affair is so dufficult to judge 40 years later. The man has been dead for years and he didnt speak to the press about his time as manager. I never got a grasp of him as a person. Did he see Morrissey as a weak card in the line up? Did he just dislike him? Did he want The Smiths as a pure rock group who would appeal to the most neanderthal amongst us? Who knows. I never knew or understood why he suddenly left but I think if he meddled with artistic output, he wasnt going to last anyway.
In my ideal fantasy world, guns are a bit like cars: you take a 6 month ed course on how to use your basic hunting weapon, take a licensing exam, renew it regularly, have additional exams and education requirements for specialized weaponry like semi-auto high power rifles... Basically treat the entire process the same as a driving license.
In practice, however, that entire process needs to be government funded to work, because impoverished hunters aren't going to have the money for that shit.
And god can you imagine convincing a US representative to support paying for gun education in this country?
I don't think you'd even convince them to make a DMV if the car was invented today...
answering 'yes' to the question of 'hey, can we pull around? i saw a weird bird in the Toys 'R' Us parking lot and I wanna check it out' is how you say 'i love you' in biologist
I kind of want to buy an old Volkswagen bus or something like it and "modernize" it. (Upgrade brakes, along with some basic safety upgrades, maybe put in a heftier engine, and add some convenience features like a backup camera, better speakers, etc.) I think it would be really cool to just have a regular every day car that looks old and uncommon, maybe "lower class" by today standards, and turns out it's just a regular modern day car on the inside
I was going to be productive this morning by going grocery shopping before lunch (I realized last night that I had forgotten a crucial ingredient for my dinner, so scrounged up some leftovers, so there really wasn't much food left for today)...but my landlady apparently came back late last night and parked behind me in the driveway, so my car is trapped.
However, this week's shopping list is short and my car being trapped also means that I can't drive out to the nature center, so I will be subbing in walking in the woods for walking for my groceries. Two birds, one stone.
omg slush puppies are a british thing too! also had after swimming lessons. every swimming pool must have a slushie machine or else it is a bad swimming pool
what flavours do you prefer? on the rare occasion the flavours weren't just blue raspberry and strawberry, i'd go for blood orange
the thing is i do get genuinely kinda rly curious abt if this specfic thing my parents did when i was younger is. well regardless i think its fucked up but if its like a somewhat regular occurrence in childhood tht other ppl have experienced or its a like. wtf what do u mean they said tht to you type thing but the thing is iv never bought it up in any convo bc ive always been scared of immediately bringing the mood down if its the second
I have this giant fucking bruise on my shin, and I'd post a photo but honestly it looks horrible and is just looking worse the more it heals, but either way I have no idea what it's from 💀 it's in the right spot/angle that it could be that the wind slammed the car door shut on me the other day or something, but I don't remember Anything happening to my leg
My mom was like ",,, Before we leave, I think you should put on a pair of pants..." (instead of the shorts I'm wearing) and normally I'd be like, no one is gonna notice or care about some asshole in the grocery store with a bruise on their leg
But . It is kinda like larger than an adult human fist...
I'm still trying to comprehend that I actually caught Winger on the radio the other night (I pulled into my parking lot before the song ended, so I caught the last chorus). Thanks WZFM Narrows for making my night on a tough week
