Ex-Bass Pairs Member Opens Up in New Autobiography posted by Publicity Dept., Crick & Watson Book Publishing

The following is an excerpt from the yet to be announced forthcoming release of “I’m Fricken Remarkable, An Autobiography of an Ill-tempered Musician, Marketer, Philosopher, Husband, Dad, Friend, Son, Brother and Sandwich Artist.”

I am not in Chicago anymore. I am 7,554 miles away, where I am reflecting, protesting and jamming. I’m back home in the streets of Karachi, the Mexican part.

I arrived a few months ago. The constant barrage of inquiries over the Bass Pairs split became too much. The media scrutiny was intense. They were at O’Hare when I left. They were waiting for me at Heathrow. They were even waiting for me when I arrived in Karachi.

Our fan couldn’t let it go either. “I don’t know if I’m going to come over for family dinner, CJ!”

Carolyn is here. She now wants to go by Carolyn. She is here next to me in bed. We are actually starting a revolution from our bed. Basically, it’s unique protest concept where we sit in our bed all day in protest.

What are we protesting?

What else is there than the systematic downgrade of planets that lose their status due to their dwarfed size. So passionate am I about this cause that my next single is titled:

A planet is a celestial body that has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a hydrostatic equilibrium (nearly round) shape, and is in orbit around a star, and is neither a star nor a satellite of a planet, baby.

It’s going to totally rock in a non-asteroid way.

All this protesting and song writing has made me reflect on my own journey around the sun. I’ve realized that change is a good thing. And I’ve realized that other people can have ideas. And sometimes those ideas, if that’s what they call them, may actually be better than my ideas. The concept is completely counter-intuitive and I’m still trying to grasp it.

I turn the question over and over in my mind: can astrophysics and bongo drums be reconciled? Did the Bass Pairs sound actually need bongo drums after all?

My thoughts are interrupted by the melodic harmony of one Richard Feynman, recipient of the Nobel Prize in Physics

If he can do it, then why can’t I?
