HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICK "You Ole Codger"

Happy Birthday Mick. You Ole Codger. Yes Codger. Sixty-Nine Years old today. Elderly and eccentric. You qualify and fit the descript of a Codger Mick. No we're not knocking Mick. We Love this ol Bloke. Love him dearly. We (I have anyway) grown up with the Mickster through the years. The young Boyish-Girlish looking Mick. Beautifully handsome. No we're not knocking Mick who gave us such great beloved tunes like Satisfaction, Angie, Beast of Burden, Start Me Up, "If you Start Me Up I'll Never Stop" Never Stop Never Stop. You do it Mick. he ain't stoppin yet. We love the ole Mickster. yes we do, and especially since we have all his (and The Stones) great tunes to listen to. And especially since the make such Shit these days. No, not Mick and The Stones, all the other Crappy groups around and "So-Called" musical artists. "Not" !!!
Yes "Thnk God" we've still got Mick and The Boys "The Stones" and all their great music we can throw on the Stereo, listen to, reminisce, and Enjoy. We Love it! Listening to Mick Keith and The Rolling Stones, "The World's Greatest Rock-N-Roll Band" of All-Time.
Yes "Happy Birthday Mick" Sir Mick, Mick Jagger. We Love you.
Keep on Rocking. You old Codger you.

MICK JAGGER on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE ..SNL .. Is FRIGGIN FUNNY

A YOUNG MICK JAGGER

OLDER MICK JAGGER

SNL APPEARANCE May 19, 20012

Mick Jagger hosted SNL last night. He was funny as hell. Just great and in quite a number of skits. Jagger played a Nerd out with friend at a Karaoke Bar watching one performer after the other do Stones songs. The two girls and 1 guy Jagger's nerdy character was with were going ga-ga over each performer, praising how great they were, that the looked (un-true) just like Mick Jagger and sounded just like him, even better. All the while Jagger's Nerdy Character is saying he doesn't think so and that he disagrees and doesn't like the performers. Friggin Hilarious.

Mick also plays a flamboyant actor who's on a game show like password. his character is supposed to be actor who plays James Bond type characters but in real life he is nothing like his on screen suave macho Bond-Type but a slightly nerdy and feminine type with gay tendencies and a total opposite from the on screen persona.

Jagger is also Hilarious on an American Idol type show which sees Mick playing Steven Tyler. Again Mick was Friggin Hilarious. Maybe Mick should think about a second career as a Comedic Actor, "he's great."

Being a huge Rolling Stones and Mick Jagger fan I hate to say it but Mick's singing wasn't nearly as good or enjoyable (for me anyway) as his Funny As Hell comedic acting. I totally enjoyed Mick acting in the skits. i was almost rolling on the floor. Just brilliant as the English love to say. Jagger's singing performances on the show however I didn't really enjoy that much. I'm truly sorry to say. But I must. I wanted to, but didn't. Hey I love Mick and the Stones, but the singing performances last night just didn't cut it for me. Sorry Mick. You gotta get yourself in some Funny-Ass movie with Mike Myers or somebody like that. You'd be great. Anyway, loved seeing Mick on Saturday Night Live, and ......

NEW YORK and The $3.00 PBR

New York and the $3.00 PBR, Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer has been a God-Send to many New Yorkers. As you all know, the US Economy has been in the Shitter for the past 3-Half years or so.

Many people are out of work, and many who are working, are taking home Half-as-Much Money or more of what they used to make. People have had to buckle down and give up or curb many things they enjoyed previous to the current state of our economy, which is in almost a Depression Era State.

Yes, everybody says that we are not in a Depression, we're in a recession. Those are the Rich and Well-Off talking. To many, the state of our Union and their feelings are of Depression.

So, because of the Terrible State of our Economy you have given up eating out 3 times a week, you buy less clothes, spend less on Entertainment and any number of things and you haven't had a vacation in the past two years, maybe more. You given up a lot. We all have.

Now when it comes to socializing, going out for a few Beers or Cocktails with some friends, you've had to cut back on that too. But hey, you gotta draw a line somewhere, and everyone is entitled to a few drinks to unwind every now and then. But if you live in the Great City of New York this can be a costly undertaking, especially in this day, and of all times, to be having a Boom in The $14, Sixteen-Dollar-Or -More-Cocktail.W hat is a Poor Working Guy or Working Girl to do??? Well Boys and Girls, let's Thank God for that great thing of wonder and the Bars and establishments who so graciously and kindly serve it, The $3.00 PBR, That's right, a $3.oo Beer in The Land of The Over-Priced $16.00 Cocktail, Manhattan, New York, NY..... It's quite Sad, Greedy too.

Yes, Thank God and let's thank the Kind-Heart proprietors who serve $3.00 PBR'S or any Beer for just $3 or $4 in a New York Bar. You are doing you fellow man a public service and we thank you for that. Whoever you are, you are to be commended, and Shame-On-You, all those places that serve $14 PLUS Cocktails. "RIP-OFF" !!! Wish the masses would Boycott these places and patronize places like Blue & Gold Bar, 7B, and anyplace who has a heart. Bars that serve 3 and 4 Dollar Beers.

I just have to say, it's great to go to a place like Blue and Gold Bar on East 7th Street and know that you can have 3 or 4 Beers for just $12 to $16, accounting for a Buck a Pop for the Barkeep. Now that's pretty good. I have had the best times hanging at Blue & Gold with some friends. You sit at the Bar or get into a nice comfy booth, drink your Beers ($3 PBR'S), relax, listen to the Music, Chit Chat, and just enjoy, and it's not going to cost you The Shirt Off Your Back.

Yes, you can have 4 Beers, tip included for the price of 1 Rip-Off Drink at one of those Rip-Off Joints. And if you are Dumb enough to have four drinks in one of those places, guess what it's going to cost you? About $75 my friend.

Well, do the Math, and if you can afford $75 for only 4 drinks, God Bless You. And if you can't, you've got an alternative. Right, your local $3.00 PBR Joint. They're a God-Send.
