Day 15 of 365 – Son of Zorn
PENTAX *ist DS (31mm, f/8, 1/90 sec, ISO1600)
This is in the window of the local Fox affiliate on Market St. I like the comic book lettering look of it.
Zorn, the defender of Zephyria, conqueror of the tribes of Agon, decapitator of the dark herdsmen of Grith, is an overlord of pain from an island in the Pacific Ocean where everyone is animated, but he finds his greatest battle may be the adjustment to the banality of middle class America. Zorn returns to the suburbs of Orange County, Calif., on a mission to reconnect with his estranged ex-wife, Edie, and their son, Alan, but suffers a setback when he finds Edie engaged to another man. He decides to stick around anyway, hoping to forge a relationship with Alan, getting an apartment and a job in sales and trying to funnel his warrior energy into dealing with everyday foes — like the DMV

Yeah
Here we stand or here we fall
History won’t care at all
Make the bed, light the light
Lady mercy won’t be home tonightYeah, you don’t waste no time at all
Don’t hear the bell but you answer the call
It comes to you as to us all
Hey, we’re just waiting
For the hammer to fall – yeahOh every night, and every day
A little piece of you is falling away
But lift your face, the western way, baby
Build your muscles as your body decaysYeah, toe your line and play their game
Yeah, let the anaesthetic cover it all
Till one day they call your name
You know it’s time for the hammer to fall – yeahRich or poor or famous for
Your truth it’s all the same – oh no – oh no
Oh lock your door but rain is pouring
Through your window pane – oh no – yeah
Baby now your struggle’s all vainOooh oooh oooh oooh oooh
For we who grew up tall and proud
In the shadow of the mushroom cloud
Convinced our voices can’t be heard
We just wanna scream it louder and louder and louderWhat the hell we fighting for?
Ah, just surrender and it won’t hurt at all
You just got time to say your prayers
Eh, while you’re waiting for the hammer to hammer to fall
Hey, yes, it’s starting to fall eh, hammer, you know
Yeah, hammer to fall, wooh, ah, hey, eh woowoo, ha eh hammer
Waiting for the hammer to fall baby

Day 8 of 365 – Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
PENTAX *ist DS (55mm, f/5.6, 1/60 sec, ISO1600)
Money, get away
Get a good job with more pay and you’re okay
Money, it’s a gas
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
New car, caviar, four star daydream
Think I’ll buy me a football teamMoney, get back
I’m all right Jack keep your hands off of my stack
Money, it’s a hit
Don’t give me that do goody good bullshit
I’m in the high-fidelity first class traveling set
And I think I need a Lear jetMoney, it’s a crime
Share it fairly but don’t take a slice of my pie
Money, so they say
Is the root of all evil today
But if you ask for payrise it’s no surprise
That they’re giving none away
Away, away, way
Away, away, awayPink Floyd – Money

Day 5 of 365 – Keep it Local and support your area
Back when I lived on Market Street back in the late 80’s early 90’s I lived next door to the Marach Music store and heard some great music coming out of the store. I am also a BIG fan of keeping it local and supporting my neighbors and friends. In the Corning area there are some great local bands and a lot of bars and restaurants that have live music a few nights a week. So take the time to check them out.
