Electric Avenue
Krüde is a peculiar kind of chap. I don’t take anything
lightly. Yet, I wont give a shit about most things people hold dearest to their
psyches. Not by design either. Nothing I do is ever forced. Krüde since birth, I says. But cursed with a heart of
gold. So the aura of me cannot be fully realized until I lose the forgiving
nature. Hmmmm…. I do find myself waking up in Las Vegas, Nevada today. Is there a better excuse to be somebody you are not when bedding down in Vegas
for a few days? Doubt it. This desert town still thrives on people’s loss of
inhibitions (fueled by various intoxicants) to pad its dusty coffers with cash. Vegas is still a parched cowboy town.
Not much has changed here since I first stepped foot onto the sandy grounds of Sin
City over 30 years ago. ‘A few overpriced cosmetic face lifts to the Strip
every 15 years don’t count’. The spirit of a true fandango still lives
and breathes in the heart of Western nothingness. Roll the dice. Move your mice ……
Must admit,
my age is a big factor in being Krüde in Las Vegas. The 3 hour difference in
time has fucked up my resting patterns. This means I have been dragging my ass
the first few days of this ‘business’ trip. Damn Krüde, stay focused. There is
gold in them thar hills…. Business
puts greenbacks in my pocket. Money buys motion. Krüde loves to make things move. That is for certain.
Sometimes out
here, I do feel my age. Not cuz of the usual aches and pains. It is when I see
younger people living their best lives and making memories to last a lifetime.
And how they will learn the same pertinent information I acquired over the
years-Through gambling at casinos. Or how to take care of the people giving great
service. Or drinking hooch to almost excess, yet never waking up in the Clark
County lock up. Vegas is an adult playground. It has been built off of the backs of gambling losers. In
other words, you will lose money here. Not everytime, but never to remain in the
Black. Entertainment or death. Take your mortal pick….
I don’t live
in the past. Or live for the future. Krüde is all about Today. I get the
most I can out of every waking minute. Being in Vegas is a tough place to stay even.
Just have to keep my brain sharp. My body well rested. And tune my mojo
firmly to the Now.
Amen.
Love,
Peace

Gratuities,
