…jupiter day.
it is thursday,
it is the 17th,
sweet st patty’s day.
red hair, irish blood, sentimental heart.
top of the morning to all the fishes out there,
the cycle ends with the depth of the ocean and begins with the heat of fire.
the contrast makes life a blast.
w.p.c., my musical brother of sorts,
was born today too.
a toast to his songs is in order,
turn it up.
spring is promising us a lovely new year.
thank goodness for the infinite possibilities.
i am deep into audio options in the studio,
the preliminary sketches are coming to be.
great way to spend today.
on this day last year my 100 year old inspiration,
theresia auf der maur,
left this planet.
i feel her force more then ever,
i will eat an apple for her today,
and i wish her all the cabbage in heaven!
thank you life!

Abundant jupiter blessings for all.

I think today is a “redhead day”, because it’s also the birthday of my band’s singer and she’s a readhead too. . .
The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.

Happy Birthday, Melissa!
Happy Birthday Melissa, and best regards to Big Billy too.
What a mystical and amazing day you seem to have been born on, maybe it’s somethign to do with the equinox.
Maybe you make it magical rather than it making you magical I don’t know.
You are so utterly gorgeous, there is love pumping through you for all to see.
happy birthday Melissa, though i don’t drink i celebrate st. paddys day with the soothing voice of phil lynott and thin lizzy
I just remembered it was your birthday as I was sitting in lecture today; as soon as I could I got online to leave you happy birthday wishes.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
yayayayayayyayayayayayayayyayaayayyayayayayyayayayayayayayayayyayayayayayayayayayayayyayayayayayayayayayayayayayyayayayayayayayayayay!

Salute to Éiriú, the old land..and to all members of the Red-Haired-League.
Let me say it like The Pogues:
‘The whole world roars
A chorus of applause
Strangers from Dehli to Dublin
Are swept off their feet
As they kiss on the street
And the waters like champagne are bubbling.’
Hello Melissa !
I wish you a happy birthday !
So a very good day for you.
Thank you for all !

Happy birthday Mel. Thank you very much for showing up in the most unikely places. Especially places where others won’t go.
Love and kisses.
See you soon.
This is very late [my PC's been misbehaving], but seeing that I was thinking of you on the actual day I’ll post this.
HAPPIEST day and year and life to you.
All good things! All good things!
My ancestors traveled here from Irish shores,
I think especially of them on this day -
as I think of you too.
EXCITEMENT as news of your new album is shared!
The anticipation is glorious and grand.
As for a seed I’ve been told about, snug under the soil…
I am eagerly awaiting for your album to break earth – and rock Earth!
The very best to you today and always – my very special and much appreciated Melissa!
Love and rock!

I know it’s been a week, but I thought of you, Melissa when I saw The Today Show in NYC on St. Patrick’s Day.
There were three redheads lined up outside: A man dressed as lepruchan, and two women.
Only on St. Patrick’s Day would you find that many redheads together! I know that you’re proud your mane of fire! I would be.
Hi. I have only just found this blog just now (forgive me, but I am a career procrastinator!!) and I find it very refreshing. Too little do celebrities speak to us direct, and I love the fact that you do.
If you ever get bored, have a look at my blogs. One is early stages, but the other one (Seedy Small Village) is quite funny. I would love to hear what you think about them.
*raises guinness*
happy st patricks day even though im a bit late. and i love your new hair, its just as pretty as your old style!

there is a light that never goes out
Dear melissa, I wrote but you still ain’t callin
I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom
I sent two letters back in autumn, you must not-a got ‘em
There probably was a problem at the post office or somethin
Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot ‘em
but anyways; fuck it, what’s been up? Molly how’s your mom?
My girlfriend’s pregnant , I’m bout to be a father
If I have a daughter, guess what I’ma call her?
I’ma name her melissa
I know you probably hear this everyday, but I’m your biggest fan
I even got the underground shit that you did with hole
I got a room full of your posters and your pictures mel
I like the shit you did with billy corgan too, that shit was fat
Anyways, I hope you get this melissa, hit me back,
just to chat, truly yours, your biggest fan
This is mister abraham storker
Dear melissa, you still ain’t called or wrote, I hope you have a chance
I ain’t mad – I just think it’s FUCKED UP you don’t answer fans
If you didn’t wanna talk to me outside your concert
you didn’t have to, but you coulda signed an autograph for Matthew
That’s my little brother man, he’s only six years old
We waited in the blistering cold for you,
four hours and you just said, “No.”
That’s pretty shitty man – you’re like his fuckin idol
He wants to be just like you man, he likes you more than I do
I ain’t that mad though, I just don’t like bein lied to
Remember when we met in england – you said if I’d write you
you would write back – see I’m just like you in a way
so when I have a shitty day, I drift away and put ‘em on
cause I don’t really got shit else so that shit helps when I’m depressed
I even got a tattoo of your name across the chest
Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds
It’s like adrenaline, the pain is such a sudden rush for me
See everything you say is real, and I respect you cause you tell it
My girlfriend’s jealous cause I talk about you 24/7
But she don’t know you like I know you melissa, no one does
She don’t know what it was like for people like us growin up
You gotta call me melissa, I’ll be the biggest fan you’ll ever lose
Sincerely yours, A storker
P.S. We should be together too
Dear Miss-I’m-Too-Good-To-Call-Or-Write-My-Fans,
this’ll be the last package I ever send your ass
It’s been six months and still no word – I don’t deserve it?
I know you got my last two letters;
I wrote the addresses on ‘em perfect
So this is my cassette I’m sending you, I hope you hear it
I’m in the car right now, I’m doing 90 on the freeway
Hey melissa, I drank a fifth of vodka, you dare me to drive?
You know the song by Phil Collins, “In the Air of the Night” about that guy who coulda saved that other guy from drowning
but didn’t, then phil saw it all, then at a a show he found him?
That’s kinda how this is, you coulda rescued me from drowning
Now it’s too late – I’m on a 1000 downers now, I’m drowsy
and all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call
I hope you know I ripped +ALL+ of your pictures OFF THE WALL!
I love you melissa, we coulda been together, think about it
You ruined it now, I hope you can’t sleep and you dream about it
And when you dream I hope you can’t sleep and you SCREAM about it
I hope your conscience EATS AT YOU and you can’t BREATHE without me
See melissa; [*screaming*] Shut up bitch! I’m tryin to talk!
Hey melissa, that’s my girlfriend screamin in the trunk
but I didn’t slit her throat, I just tied her up, see I ain’t like you
cause if she suffocates she’ll suffer more, and then she’ll die too
Well, gotta go, I’m almost at the bridge now
Oh shit, I forgot, how’m I supposed to send this shit out?
DEAR AB Storker, I meant to write you sooner but I just been busy
You said your girlfriend’s pregnant now, how far along is she?
Look, I’m really flattered you would call your daughter that
and here’s an autograph for your brother,
I wrote it on the Starter cap
I’m sorry I didn’t see you at the show, I musta missed you
Don’t think I did that shit intentionally just to diss you
But what’s this shit you said about you like to cut your wrists?
I say that shit? just clownin dogg?,
c’mon – how fucked up is you?
You got some issues Ab, I think you need some counseling
to help your ass from bouncing off the walls when you get down some
And what’s this shit about us meant to be together?
That type of shit’ll make me not want us to meet each other
I really think you and your girlfriend need each other
or maybe you just need to treat her better
I hope you get to read this letter, I just hope it reaches you in time
before you hurt yourself, I think that you’ll be doin just fine
if you relax a little, I’m glad I inspire you but abe
why are you so mad? Try to understand, that I do want you as a fan
I just don’t want you to do some crazy shit
I seen this one shit on the news a couple weeks ago that made me sick
Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge
and had his girlfriend in the trunk, and she was pregnant with his kid
and in the car they found a tape, but they didn’t say who it was to
Come to think about, his name was.. it was you
Damn
……………………………..
i wonder if eminen has a blogg?
it’s mighty brave to have one so give yourself a pat on the back, well done! now my question, are you really irish? i thought your parents are canadian/swiss… so where does ireland fit in?

Happy belated birthday.
I wanted to give you a gift, but what is there to give Melissa Auf der Maur? Surely, kidnapping Morrissey and leaving him on your doorstep would be a mighty task on my budget, so that was out. I couldn’t even create anything sufficient enough for the birthday book given to you by Firecrasher. Then, the Monday before St. Patty’s day, it hit me. A tattoo.
Here it is:
http://img211.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img211&image=pict00865bf.jpg
It was done on March 16th. I bought a $55 digicam in CVS the night of just for the occassion. Due to the cheap camera, the picture doesn’t do the tattoo justice at all. The print looks much fatter than it actually is in person because the focus sucks.
It took me a while to decide if I wanted to show anyone considering I’d just tattooed someone’s initials on my arm. People’d think I was just some nutty fan, but it’s nothing like that really. It’s not hero-worship or anything of the like. It wasn’t even intended to be done for your birthday, but it just happened that way {I’ve wanted a MAdM related tattoo for years. Then, the album came out and I decided upon the symbol. I just never had the nerve to go through with it.} It’s just my way of saying thank you. Thank you for being such a positive influence.
oh hell, i didn’t mean to post 3 times as i’m using a retro 1990′s computer.
sorry about that.
I’m a sagittarius! Thursday is my day!
Wow, I just kind of stumbled onto this blog. Pretty cool. I met you backstage at Toad’s Place when you were playing with Rick Ocasek. Great show – man that must’ve been 10 years ago. Time sure flies. The music on this blog is freaking me out so I’m gonna run. A few of the posters on here seem like real wackos, too. Good luck with that! Hope you’re doing well.
If Spring is a “She” then Fall is a “He”
Winter is an “I” and Summer is a “We”.
“““““““““““““`
And most trembling knees,
The jitters, the fear,
The divine, petrifying
anxiousness, the sweat,
The longing for Joy,
The running from ghosts,
All of it was in vain
as Your God made it All.
““““““““““““““`

I skim a lot of blogs, and so far yours is in the Top 3 of my list of favorites. I’m going to dive in and try my hand at it, so wish me luck.
It’ll be in a totally different area than yours (mine is about better positions for sex) I know, it sounds strange, but it’s like anything, once you learn more about it, it’s pretty cool. It’s mostly about better positions for sex related articles and subjects.
Wow, I was just messing around and found your page!
Very nice.
If you are interested, go see my discount digital camera related site.
It isnt anything fancy but you might still find something of interest.
Great Blog! I have a hire car related Site.
Maybe you have a look.
Hey, you have a great blog here! I’m definitely going to bookmark you! I have a beauty salon detroit site/blog. It pretty much covers beauty salon detroit related stuff.
Hi, I was just blog surfing and found you! If you are interested, go see my dolphin gift related site. It pretty much covers dolphin gift stuff. I guess you may find something of interest.
Wow, I was just messing around and found your page!
Very nice.
If you are interested, go see my Aftershave related site.
It isnt anything fancy but you might still find something of interest.
Hi,
I’m sorry for being intrusive in to your blog. But I am Melissa and I am a mother of two that is just trying to get out of an incredible financial debt. See my hubby is away in Iraq trying to protect this great country that we live in, and I am at home with our two kids telling bill collectors please be patiant. When my husband returns from war we will beable to catch up on our payments. We have already had are 2001 Ford repossessed from the bank, and are now down to a 83 buick that is rusted from front to back and the heater don’t work, and tire tax is due in November.
I’m not asking for your pitty because we got our ownselfs into this mess but we would love you and thank you in our prayers if you would just keep this link on your blog for others to view.
God Bless You.
Melissa K. W.

Help me Dude, I’m lost.
I was searching for Elvis and somehow ended up in your blog, but you know I’m sure I saw Elvis in the supermarket yesterday.
No honest really, he was right there in front of me, next to the steaks singing “Love me Tender”.
He said to me (his lip was only slightly curled) “Boy, you need to get yourself a shiny, new plasmatv to go with that blue suede sofa of yours.
But Elvis said I, In the Ghetto nobody has a plasma tv .
Dude I’m All Shook Up said Elvis. I think I’ll have me another cheeseburger then I’m gonna go home and ask Michael Jackson to come round and watch that waaaay cool surfing scene in Apocalypse Now on my new plasma tv .
And then he just walked out of the supermarket singing. . .
“You give me love and consolation,
You give me strength to carry on “
Strange day or what?

tattoo machine blogs are left behind lacking the quality of your posts. I hope you can find my tattoo machine website of comparable quality.
I like your blog. I run a website with everything from a tattoo gallery to a tattoo and piercing resource of information
