Once upon a time, it was me & my cousin and 'em...

And 'em?

Who is "em?

LOL!!!

Hilarious, I'll explain later who 'em is or was.

But that's how I remember hearing great stories as a kid.

When ever you heard the phrase "Once upon a time".....you knew you were in for a ear full of overly exaggerated lies.

Only thing is...you couldn't prove it.

For all you knew, it could have actually happened.

I mean as a kid(and probably even as an adult), if somebodies telling you a story of how two doberman pinchers hopped a fence and started chasing you down the street and the only way you got away was because of your super agile physic - with the abilities to hop over tall chain link school fencing in a single bound?......You will stop what you are doing and listen.

Your ears would be aching for an audible & improv display of pure unrehearsed entertainment.

Nothings funnier than hearing about how two neighborhood dogs got out one day.

If you grew up in Oakland in the 70's ...this was an all too common of a story of which was without a doubt to have some truth in it.

Exaggerated?

Of course.

Yet, a story is a story.


As I sometimes drift off into the day-dreams of yesteryear, I often laugh out loud when no-one else is around.

Because the stuff I've lived through personally, writers in Hollyhood wouldn't know what to make of it....and THEY...definitely couldn't make it up themselves.

Trust when I say I know this for a FACT.

Anyways.

That's all I got for today.

Keep evolving.
