Hi The Mescal Sheiks, Heaven & Earth is on hiatus now as Stuart Smith and Richie Onori have joined forces with bassist Steve Priest to reform "Sweet".  For those of you unfamiliar with the band, Sweet originally formed in the early 70s and went on to sell over 40,000,000 albums with 11 International Top Ten Hits such as "Ballroom Blitz", "Little Willy", "Love is Like Oxygen", "Fox on the Run", "Teenage Rampage", "Action", "Blockbuster", "Hellraiser" and many others. This reincarnation of the band reformed last year, playing their first show in June, and went on to play festivals throughout Canada and the States and had played to over 300,000 people before the year was out.  During this tour last year they recorded a live CD available on Amazon entitled "Sweet, Live in America" which has received rave reviews - pick up a copy and please Add Sweet As Your Friend On Myspace! http://www.myspace.com/thesweetband Also, check out our friend Red Hot Chili Pepper Chad Smith's new band, Chad Smith's Bombastic Meatbats and their iTunes Top 10 Funk/Jazz debut release, "Meet the Meatbats"! http://www.myspace.com/bombasticmeatbats

Sometimes when i look around, all i see is misery, despair, frustration and pain...

Then, i close my eyes, take a couple deep breaths, RELAX...And ask myself, "WHAT IF all I saw was what I WANTED TO SEE?" Then, I open my eyes. I see the sun, I see the blue sky, I see my girls smiling back at me, I see life...

And then, lo and behold, I see nothing but OPPORTUNITY...

Had a thought while driving home and I wanted to share it. Hope you don’t mind…

When we truly let go of past hurts, hang-ups and disappointments and choose to live in the moment, in the now, in the PRESENT, life truly can be a GIFT.

Hope you liked this one. :)


Also, if you like these, shoot me comments letting me know, join me on my Facebook page and when I send you a link to my website once it gets finished next week, be sure to go it and sign up and I’ll send these to you there as well. Take care

I hope this comment, aka 'Tankism' finds you well today. Enjoy and stay in touch. :)

When you wake up in the morning be sure to ask yourself, "Am I looking for LIFE to bless me today or to give me a struggle?"

MINDSET: it's the steering wheel to the vehicle that drives our lives. Which way you going today? :) Take care

You just had to remind me of the '69 Cubs ... :-) ... there should be a team photo next to the words "fold" and "collapse" and "crater" in the dictionary.
