SSG to the Rescue!!!

Hello friends,

Due to unforseen circumstances, i was unable to purchase any silver today. 😳☠️😢😭😨😰😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱

I was planning to... I was even planning to buy a few more of the “plucked tax payer rounds” that a few people had ogled. You know, so i could hold a fun raffle or something. Anyway, i got held up drinking espresso, doing laundry, and recording another @thedamus original on my iPhone. It’s hardly the best sound quality, but my old geezer mind is blown to bits, yet grateful, that this type of shit is even possible! Like, no mic, no mix, no nada!

It’s fun to be playing again, and some ability has returned, but sheesh! It’s very weird to forget certain things... like one’s own song for instance.

But i digress.

I was chatting with @willsparks88 this morning and we were wondering whether an M&M had gone awol. Pretty funny conversation actually — for most of it i was worried i had already received the package, but had been too drunk to remember, and had failed to post about it. Lol! I think i experienced “invented half memories” today. Fucking weird shit in retrospect.

Anyway, i went to my PObox, and all problems were solved!

I got so excited i went next door!!!

Mrs. @thedamus likes the Belgium beer so i got her one o these 😜👍

Check out @raybrockman’s decal — ‘bout 8months and that fucker is still as crisp as Van Halen 1984 and it’s gonna be ‘burnin’ down the avenue’ long after the Volvo is gone.

💥BOOM💥

T’was a beautiful blue sky spring day here in Vancouver and i got some good pics of the loot off the roof of my car — right outside the boffo liquor store at the end of my street 😜 — my PObox has a liquor store lol.

A gorgeous 1903 Morgan — ME LIKEY!!! — and a sweet lil Mercury dime — another one of the all time greats in American Constitutional Silver. Super sweet!!! Thanks 88!!!

Next it was down to the Beag — i don’t just fucking drink there!!!

That was about 4pm. Doing laundry, smoking joints and playing hooligan music can really suck up the hours! So it was downtown to HQ to drop the loot and do the math and blah blah blah.

It could have been really bad. It has been a long while since i’ve endured a full 24hrs without any medicine, so i was happy to be saved by SSG today. And particularly @willsparks88!

In honour of that badass motherfucker, who, by the way, has just become today’s official winner of @thedamus’ coveted “Asskicker of the Day Award” — i would like to announce a prize!

The following bounty be offered to the best comment!

One “Plucked Taxpayer” round. The winner must be an active SSG member, although anyone can comment. Here is the booty!

One of ‘em!!!

Here’s what ya gotta’ do to win:

1. Upvote the shit out of this post!
2. Tell me something i don’t know about: sea shanties, pirate songs, songs of the siren, seafarer music, pop punk songs of the 1700’s
3. Provide currated imagery of the era of pirates and mermaids. Treasure chests, drunk Keith Richards, vintage Les Pauls... what a ya got?

Someone’s gonna’ win it!

Cheers! from @thedamus
