The Good Clinton...

George, that is. Not a Hillary in sight. Or an Obama for that matter.
A couple weeks ago, Daddy's friend and our neighbor, Andre, invited us to a show he was playing. It was with George Clinton, from Parliament, an old, old school funk band- daddy says they've been sampled more than the ice cream at Baskin Robbins. Oh!



They played a whole lotta this kinda stuff!

Daddy said he used to play this and other funk and soul on his radio show called "Strictly Vinyl" that he did when he lived in LA, at a really cool station called KBLT.

Andre used to play with Parliament, one of the best bands of all time, and was sitting in on this show, and got us backstage passes! It was awesome. I never saw Daddy have so much fun. Me too. I even ran onstage and had a bunch of people clapping.

Daddy didn't bring the camera though, so all we got were some pictures from his cell phone. But its better than nothing. It was a great night. Thanks Andre!!

That's Andre's band. They sounded great!

That's me onstage with Andre

That's me just before I ran onstage with the rest of Parliament!

That's Daddy holding me, with the security guy in front who said I couldn't run onstage anymore. Party Pooper.

Me and Alka resting between songs. I was gettin' my drink on with my baboo.

Daddy also thought of a bunch of reasons why George is the good Clinton-
We raised the roof instead of raising taxes
They were pleasin', not appeasin'
We cut a rug, not cut and run
We took care of business instead of getting the business
Daddy said the music was so hot, he almost started to believe in "Global Warming" or whatever they're calling it this week
Oh Boy!!

The Other Wild One

I was out today, rollin' on my scooter and enjoying an almost perfect day. I checked out the kids skating, played a little soccer, and helped Daddy plant some more trees. When I took a break, Daddy took a picture of me on my ride. When I saw it, I thought I saw the picture before, so Daddy checked it out for me. He found this and said he knew I was a wild one!

That's me!

Like me, only I don't have a hat!
