Season 8 has started! Ground control to YOU. Sit back, enjoy and fasten your seat belts. This is your Captain speaking. Thank you for comin’ onboard”the Texian Space Port for your Soul!”
Season 8 will have some new compositions of mine and Chirbits(Audio shows) as well. I finally got a proper setup. Actually it’s a mini studio. Time is always the problem, so, that’s why I decided simply to improvise my new songs on the piano. I shifted from guitar as the basic instrument. Piano is so cool. You can paint on it landscapes unknown! My first song in years should be released within a month. After that, every month one original song, and furtheron my writings, poetry and all Arts. I finally got to playing music again. I do the technicalities as well. I am your Artist Universalis, the one and only Emperor of Texas, the cradle of civilization, don’t forget it!For all this to be possible I got myself a great stage piano(keyboard with an amazing 600 basic instruments, plus many more functions, 2nd hand at a bargain price of 3 hundred and 50 f*ckin’ expensive euros. Of course the MIDI controller(USf*kin’B and true), gives you an unlimited array through the computer. Still the inbuilt amplifier is great. So is its sound! What’s the catch? The woman from whom I bought it had no time to play on it. It’s great! Well, not really. This seems to be the future for all of us. Work and more work. Fuck the economy dear readers. Don’t let yourself be turned into slave labor. FIGHT. Protest, the politicians make you believe we are in Wartime. You can even play SALSA on it! Serious. An amazing instrument! Any else to share? YES, actually, these SHOES have been approximately one and a half times time around the Earth on my home trainer and combined outdoors. I gotta get new ones. Unbelievable! They are "Made in Italy" — and unbranded! They are now finished and started decomposing, like space gear in space would not, after a while due to lack of gravity, I am guessing.
Next entry on Ulysses V, will have a new Chirbit! Don’t forget to listen to my latest Chirbit of a while ago. Web address is : http://chirb.it/nqE617. It’s lengthy. A good two hours. The next one will be shorter so that I can adapt them to video for Youtube. I can’t fill up two hours of video!

Thank you dearest Kathy, sublime poetess of Love and America. It's always good to hear from you. You are in my heart 24/24. Not much writing at the moment. Will get back to it. Painting I haven't done seriously for a quite a while. It is another world, also with many Universes to it! I hope you are well and in good Spirit, happy and in Peace, not too much working. At least as much as you enjoy it, not more. My Love to you, dearest poetess of the 21st century.”

Nice of you to think of me dear Ronit. Maybe we get friends again! No harm meant. I have a bad temper and Amsterdam irritates me. Especially the big egos wandering about.
You art though is unique as you are in your ignorance and wisdom. My Love to you.

Refreshing, good old-fashioned anarchistic talk... Brains and more brains in an era of anti-intellectualism... The State of the intellect today, the luxury of brains, the luxury of time, the luxury of Love, “the agent orange liberals” — as I call them — taking over the world, the good boys and girls obeying “The New World Order”, “The Brave New World”, polished and medicated into submission. The Revolution in submission? Let’s hope not.

I am always happy when it has passed, for my year count! Thank you for your postcard. It is really nice. Will look at your wall when I am more often on Facebook. Usually in the Winter. Maybe due to popular demand I will start writing earlier this year. I am at the moment busy with music. benoit amoud duval smile (A long time ago... more than once...) shuuuut! :-):-):-)”

Thank you dear readers, listeners and Lost Souls upon the bits and bytes of the Internet for reading my stuff, for hearing my stuff, for sharing, for enlightening, for visiting Ulysses V— the Emperor of Texas' website, once in a while.
I got quite a few readers. Quite happy with that. It really does inspire me. Art is the Gateway to Happiness. I really believe that. It is for me and I think for many! We must combat the anti-Art people.
Here's a very beautiful song, sang by Billie Holiday, to End this Entry. Billie Holiday, the one and only singer of Jazz truly. Her dedication was beyond many. Hard work doesn't always pay off! She died young for all of us. Listen and enjoy and feel the reality of it.
"If I'm going to sing like someone else, then I don't need to sing at all”
That’s it for today folks. God Bless. Thank you for this Blessed day!
