Well well well!
As I live and breathe. TEDVANFREHLEY, your favorite uncle, is back in hizzouse to drop the funky shizzit once again!
How are all you rowdy sonsobitches?!?!?!
I hope everyone is doing well and I hope all your balls (boys and girls! ) are still as big as gargantuan churchbells!!!
I want to drop a special mad love shout out to ALL of you and you know who you are that are on my warm and fuzzy list!!
Well, I was sitting at home last night when I got an unexpected email from my brother in metal, KMADD. What a surprise. He said that I should pop back on and say hello and wondered where the hell I was. You like me. You reeeeeeeeally like me. Aw shucks.
Anyway, I thought he was right, and that I should pop in and say hello. Who wants to know what uncle Ted's been up to and why I've been away so long? I'll be happy to tell you...
Well,....I finally me a nice man. One who's not afraid to cry and......
OH COME ON!!!! YOU know I'm only shittin' ya on THAT one!!! Damn! SHame on you! I just wanted to make sure you were paying attention, jagball!
Nah, here's the deal. The whole thing about the Scorps album cover did ruffle my feathers...I just think naked chicks should only be made available for viewing in any shape or form AFTER the age of 18. Enough said. BUT, it wasn't something that offended me in the sense that I would cry like a baby bitch and never come back to UMOS!!!! Surely you all know that my mind, while not the MOST open, is at least big enough to say, "hey...whatever..."
The truth of the matter is, after shying away for a few days after that post...I intended to come back, but my life has been a series of one thing after another. Family issues, money, jobs, and other stresses have kept me feeling puny and not quite up to snuff. Think of me as MICK MARS whacked out on oxycontin and vicodin, thinking that my life was over....it wasn't THAT bad...but suffice to say music has taken a backseat and I haven't bought a new cd in a while...but I finally got my call from NIKKI SIXX to rejoin the band a couple weeks ago and things are looking up again. (BTW, surely you know what I mean...good things are happening again, that's my point) And I'm getting my feet back into the metal waters again too. Bought a couple of old classics last week to replace part of my collection that I had to sell. Not whining, just saying I did what I had to do and now I'm building back...
BUT....I hope you guys will find it in your hearts to welcome me back like Vince Neil to a bottle of Vodka!!! I missed a lot of you and I'll keep in touch.
Again, it was nothing personal but my life went plum bonkers for a while....
but as Kid Rock said, 'the fog has lifted/the earth has shifted/ and raised the gifted!"
Now...I must get back to my barbeque (I'm grillin' out today!!!! No better way to start the fall season off than a slab of ribs!!!!!!!!) cause if that shit burns, THEN I'll be a pissed sonofabitch!!
Say hello to your daddy and I'll hollar at y'all real soon!
Love
Ted
