Kirk's Top 5 Part 1

-

 Greetings and salutations, everyone,

It’s Kirk coming to you from the hospital bed of love, and I thought, maybe it would be nice if I let everyone get to know me a little better. With me finally revealing my face, I don’t have a lot of what I like out there; you don’t know the nut behind the art. So, I figured I’d create a series of my Top Five things I like. So, without further ado, God bless you, here are a couple of my Top Five. If you would like to know more or have a request, please leave a comment.

Top Five Candies:

1.      Milky Way: They were my maternal grandmother’s favorite.

2.      Black licorice: I know it’s odd, but I thoroughly enjoy it.

3.      Cadbury chocolate: I'm a huge fan of Cadbury products. Especially with almonds or caramel.

4.      M&M’s: They remind me of my paternal grandparents. Classic Plain and Peanut, mainly, but I also love other options.

5.      Chocolate-covered almonds: Oh, if they’re at a movie theater, this is a must. I utterly adore them.

Top Five Bands I write to:

1.      L.A. Guns! Oh, I love these guys. I’ve seen them twice and have met them both times. I’m going to see them again in September, and I'm meeting them again. Their music speaks to me and relaxes me when I write.

2.      Gene Loves Jezebel: What can I say about this band? I’ve seen them twice, and I've met both brothers. Michael was a lot nicer to me than Jay, so he holds a special place in my heart. Fun fact: Johnny Martin, who is the current bassist for GLJ, is also the bassist for L.A. Guns.  

3.      HIM: The Finnish love metal band; I find them soothing and love their version of "Wicked Game." I love a lot of gothic music, and this is right up there.

4.      The Bauhaus/Peter Murphy: as well as Siouxie, who could have been placed here as well, help put me in the right place to write.

5.      The 69 Eyes: While the Sisters of Mercy could have been here too, I love Jyrki 69’s deep voice. I feel comfortable with a lower octave and happily sing along with him.  

I’ll leave with just the two. I have plenty more to cover, and I hope this makes you feel more connected to me and the inner workings of my mind. Until next time, take care and God bless!

    This is like “Wayne’s World, Wayne’s World, top ten, excellent!” :) I’d be okay with a top TEN list! Always fun learning things about you!

    In what forms do you like your black licorice? Licorice allsorts? Pastilles? Red rope licorice? Good n plenty? Twizzlers? Red vines (they have black licorice too!!!) Gosh am I forgetting any?

  Greetings and salutations,             It’s Kirk coming to you from the hospital bed of love, to wrap up my love for the Prince of Darkness, Ozzy Osborne. I was asked to do a top five of either Black Sabbath or Ozzy’s solo career, so I figured, why not do both? So, I’m going to do a double Top 5 as the Oz man deserves both. I know in my blog about him, I gave away my top song by him, but let’s focus more on that. And if you haven’t read the post, that’s fine, it will be news to you here. I’m not going to prolong this any further. First, we’re going Back to the Beginning , see what I did there?  LOL. Seriously, let’s start with where Ozzy did… My Top 5 Favorite Black Sabbath Songs: 5) Sabbath Bloody Sabbath: I’ll be honest, the first time I heard this song wasn’t by Sabbath, it was off Anthrax’s I’m the Man EP. Now, I’m not a huge fan of Joey Belladonna, I liked John Bush better, but he did a good job with this on...

BLOG 1: Are You Getting Excited, I am!!!

       Are you ready? No, I asked you a question. Are you ready? I figured out the next state of the game, besides writing it on YouTube! I'll do it twice a month, on the first and the fifteenth. That way, the first will be talking about the previous month's Tales from the `13th, and the Sunday Sonnets there. We can also answer any questions that you might have about Character Corner. I'm excited to be setting this up and pray that you find the amusement I'll be adding, as I'm naturally sarcastic.  I'm attempting to grow this at home, and with that, I need your help. Please read my posts first; that would be a great help. Share on Facebook, Instagram, and anything else you can. We need to get the work out there to as many people as possible. If reading isn't your thing, donating money to the links below also helps a great deal and gives you early access to the items. So, on July 1st, I'll go live on YouTube, and yes, it'll be a face reveal. Amen and ...
