Ain't NO fag

KRCVAL ... Should I say "Val" sorry not sure what the name might be...

Thanks for the note. I've been wanting to write KR for a long time, because I listen to his music all the time. He used to be the wind in my sails when I lifted weights. His words motivate me to do something. So I'm very happy to get folks sending me messages and that the shit I wrote isn't just considered nuts, far off and not worth responding too.

I would not hide the fact I had had several drinks. And although I don't drink nightly and in fact don't drink for months at a time hardly at all, I've had 2 drinks tonight already. And my drinks are not sissy drinks. I'm not a girl drink drunk (in case you ever saw that skit on Kid in the Hall ... crazy motherfuckers; that was actually quite insane, very funny).

So I'm not very drunk but I got a good buzz going.

I loved the short film with Sean Penn. I'm actually surprised when I see the folks that interact and do stuff with KR. I don't know if this is the type of statement that generates "WHAT???!!!" but in case it does, it's because if I were to share my love of KR with a lot of folks I know, I would be labelled misogynist, hater, right wing pig, insane, etc. But I think it's cool that the "two sides" of the spectrum meet in a single video and talk to each other. It's fucking true what is in the video.

I did not grow up in America, but I so love this country. And even though some folks truly scare the shit out of me with what they want to do to this place (and I'm not talking democrats for the most part), I think it's great that folks here express themselves openly a lot, with very diverging views. KR is great that way. I truly love this place, and it's not a materialistic love, it's a love of the People. I really admire people in this country.

I know that the video is a simplistic thing, but it will hopefully get people to think. I don't understand why KR is behind Romney. Sorry. But KR does not seem a Republican to me.

Hey BB Shirlee, First of all, thanks for actually writing, and writing back. I appreciate your comments and suggestions. Yeah, having had a drink, perhaps I used the word God a little too loosely, but Kid Rock does have significance to me, in my life, in my road to discovery. My head tells me not to worship a rock star, but my heart says "do it". The fact is that the Kid's no-nonsense way of talking, of saying whatever he thinks is inspiring to me. I don't feel the way he does about every single thing, but I listen to him, to his lyrics and in so many ways, he is human, real, closer that a person I would truly worship than lots of folks. Although I disagree with his choice of Romney. Makes me wonder if it's not just shock value. I love the shock value of what the Kid says, but I hope it's his genuine opinion.

Sorry, had a couple drinks tonight too. No, I don't drink every night. Far from it. But sometime if I do, I get drunk a few nights in a row.

Some day I'll be able to feel ok expressing myself about stuff I'm told is not PC. I'm PC up to my fucking eyeballs. I do feel relief when I'm around folks who ease the pressure. I believe in compassion and love and the works, but sometime the shit gets to be too much and not make a whole lot of sense to us human, the animal side of things.

Fuck, why am I saying so much. I only had 2 drinks. But I wanted to say "thanks" for interacting with me after the shit I wrote. Makes me feel good that no one has told me off, or worse that people did not just decide to ignore the confused, unstable fag... ;-)

Anyway, sorry for not making total sense. But thanks for writing.

Should I change the word to idol? I thought of changing the post, removing it. After all I was drunk when I wrote it. But I decided to just leave it for now rather than be scared of what people might read in it. I appreciate your comment. KR has had a huge, shocking influence on me.
