This flower that blossomed was unhappy that day As it’s pedal fell to the ground Screaming a sound of silence The pedal floating down Hell bound No more Because life wasn’t wasted. As it will nourish in Neo-vintage. c 2024 Chu The Cud All Rights Reserved

The Bikeriders
On Friday afternoon I took my son to go and see, The Bikeriders. I haven’t been to the movies since the trash movie Cocaine Bear. Nothing has excited me enough to pull out $20.00 – $25.00 plus dollars a ticket. Then add another $40.00 for snacks. This is the first movie I’ve seen in 2024.Continue reading “The Bikeriders”
Brat Pack documentary, “Brats.”
Recently, I watched the Andrew McCarthy documentary, Brats and wasn’t impressed. The trailer was more exciting. Then I find out he wrote a book a few years ago about the same subject. For a person upset by the original article in the New York Magazine that created the term, “Brat Pack” in the mid eighties,Continue reading “Brat Pack documentary, “Brats.””
Disregarding the obvious
The universe is not controlled by any preconceived theories or expectations made by humans. It operates independently and is vast by any conception and can destroy us at a moment notice at anytime. The notion of human power has no bearing on the universe. Those that think they are king are merely fools to believeContinue reading “Disregarding the obvious”
Uniquely unique.

Always finding a way to laughter. c 2024 ChuContinue reading “My dad and mom.”
Branding
What are your favorite brands and why? I will start by saying these brands are true and tested by me. They’ve been with me for decades. Levi’s. I’ve been wearing Levis 501 Button Fly jeans for decades. I’ve had many different colors but mostly blue jean color. They’re cool looking and the most consistent pantsContinue reading “Branding”
Resilience
As you move toward the light, many may try to pull you back into the darkness. Like a vine that wraps around its victim to pull it down and away from the light. You must stay strong and keep growing upward. Breaking the grip of the vine. Light is fuel. Soak it up. c 2024Continue reading “Resilience”
Cast a ballot.
Do you vote in political elections? Yes. The first time I voted, I was so excited to vote for President. I went into that grey metal box, closed the curtain and clicked all the levers. Ronald Reagan won. Since then I never been as excited to vote for President. I still vote and most ofContinue reading “Cast a ballot.”
Interconnectedness
What gives you direction in life? The sun, the moon, faith, love, along with a combination of values, interest and experiences. The energy flowing throughout my body is connected to all of the above which gives me direction. Looking out the window when I first awake gives me direction. Being interconnected in all things andContinue reading “Interconnectedness”
