Gotta do some early morning venting. I'm in the unenviable position of having too much on my plate right now. I'm sure most of you know the feeling. I have a bad habit of doing this to myself. Hopefully one of these days I'll figure out how to only take on as much as I can do.
To start with is the fact that I'm married and I have four kids, that's item number one. Then I work part time doing data entry for an insurance company, that's not really stressful just kind of tedious and annoying but at this rate at least I have my job. I'm also working on starting my own business. I mentioned that a few posts back. I've been working on it for five years and it's exceptionally slow going. The big problem is that it's not exactly what one would call a normal business, and so we can't really make money in a normal fashion. That's the big stress right now.
See I run a paranormal investigation group. We have finally made enough money to do the filing for non-profit status so I'm in the process of navigating that red tape and making sure we get everything done right. We're also in the process of editing our first documentary which will hopefully be finished sometime in October and ready for Sundance in January. My only worry with it is making sure we can get the music right since I can't pay anyone for it.
This summer we have two more documentaries to film, a few publicity events, and this spring we have a charity event that we've started organizing. I hate to say it but this will probably be our last year for the charity event because it's becoming too much of a pain and the organization that we do it for really doesn't help much at all.
Man I'm getting tired of this stuff. Sometimes I wish I didn't run my own group and could be someone that just gets told when and where to show up. I'm horrible at managing schedules, organization, and then of course finding the time to work on filling out paperwork for non-profit status and then making sure we use the money correctly so that we can keep the non-profit status.
I've got a headache.

CommodoreDrake...I did not realize that starting a paranormal investigation group had so much red tape involved. I figured you could just get some audio/video equipment and go investigate old homes...etc. Have you had any experiences that you would be willing to share? I'm very interested in hearing stories, but not to the point of being a "ghost geek"...lol. Hell..who am I kidding. I'd do it for free if someone let me.

CommodoreDrake - You ever get your paranormal group down to Oklahoma? Parnormal is a fascinating subject. You'll have to keep us posted when your documentary is complete.

SuperSwingDog, starting the group didn't involve any red tape. Becoming a business does. I've asked myself many times why exactly I want it to become a business. The truth is I want to be able to dedicate all of my time to the paranormal rather than just my out of day job hours. To do that I need to make money doing it so I can support my family. The investigators on my team have the same needs. However, I refuse to charge anyone that wants us to investigate for them. So the money has to come from other sources. The easiest way would be through donations, hence the non-profit thing. The hardest way is through entertainment venues.
Though to be sure it's only hard for me because I approach this with a high standard of integrity. So that makes selling documentaries, books, and lectures a little bit harder because it shows how boring this actually is. The investigative process is exceptionally boring and it's only exciting when you find something. Well we don't always find stuff. So we could fake like the groups with reality shows and some other famous paranormal people. Or we stay true to ourselves and go the hard road.
As for stories I've got a few that I can share. My favorite is from Fredericksberg Virginia. We went there a few years ago for a convention and got a chance to investigate the Civil War battle field. It was an intense experience. Inside of a house on the field I stood to the side of a doorway generally just watching everyone and got a sudden pain in my back like someone had hit me with a seldge hammer or something. I reached back to rub my back and my fingers rubbed against a bullet hole in the wall. I moved one of my other people in front of it without telling her anything and she had the same experience.
Outside on the battle site we could hear drum cadences, gun fire, and yelling. You could also smell smoke, and what I call death. A sickly sweet smell that is really rather nauseating.
We shouldn't have had any of these smells as it was pouring rain and there was no wind moving. All of that is what we would call a residual haunting. Just something that replays due to the intense emotions of the event.
I'm quickly running out of room but I have lots of other stories. Hybes, we'll be in Oklahoma sometime this summer. I don't remember the name of the town though. I have to get back into contact with the person setting it up.

"oh ya not really a marley fan, bob dylan,jimi hendrix etc!!! i know most people are!! i really grew up on Guns and roses i loved slash!! then i heard about joe and ive always been into guitar..."
I have to agree to that; a lot of people think I'm nuts for being a guitarist who does not idolise Hendrix, but I've built up a li'l concept for my argument.
I see famous guitarists in generations; Hendrix, Clapton and Beck (and loads others who I forgot or havn't heard of) I label as being 1st generation (rock) guitarists who developed their own unique and signature sounds with the guitaro. Satchy, Vai, Petrucci, Johnson, Gilbert (etc) I see as second generation guitarists, who were influenced heavily by 1st generation guitarists and used that influence to develope their own unique sound. I aspire to become a 3rd gen. guitarist, drawing most of my inspiration from 2nd gen (most specifically Satchy) guitarists to develope my own style and sound. I use this theory to draw influences and expand my own technique. It's a tad silly, but it's all just for fun, haha!
That said, I don't only enjoy 2nd gen. guitarists, I also really like Clapton, and I respect Hendrix, but I don't like Hendrix enough to go out and actively listen to his music.
I better get down to work if I wanna be a 3rd gen. Haha!
