A little about Playa Zipolite, The Beach of the Dead . . .

Playa Zipolite, Oaxaca, Southern Mexico, on the Pacific Ocean. A little bit about my favorite little get-away on this small world of ours.

Zipolite, a sweaty 30-minute walk west from Puerto Angel, brings you to Playa Zipolite and another world. The feeling here is 1970's - Led Zep, Marley, and scruffy gringos.

A long, long time ago, Zipolite beach was usually visited by the Zapotecans...who made it a magical place. They came to visit Zipolite to meditate, or just to rest.

Recently, this beach has begun to receive day-trippers from Puerto Angel and Puerto Escondido, giving it a more TOURISTY feel than before.

Most people come here for the novelty of the nude beach, yoga, turtles, seafood, surf, meditation, vegetarians, discos, party, to get burnt by the sun, or to see how long they can stretch their skinny budget.

I post WWW Oaxaca, Mexico, Zipolite and areas nearby information. Also general budget, backpacker, surfer, off the beaten path, Mexico and beyond, information.

REMEMBER: Everyone is welcome at Zipolite.

“Home sweet home”

The hosts of this casa, Martin and Joe, make you feel right at home. Welcoming and genuine attentiveness make for a great stay. I stayed for 6 nights in the unit beside the plunge pool. The use of the third floor palapa makes for a great stay!More

After meeting our great hosts and the place built with love and great taste, then add the amazing sea view, my partner and I just felt: there is no other place we rather be.

“Simply Magnificent!”

Reviewed 23 November 2011

Casa Sol featured great views, rooms, and hospitality. We started each day on the 3rd floor veranda with fresh squeezed OJ & coffee, panoramic vistas of the ocean & jungle, and a chorus of colorful birds and other wildlife. The stairs to the beach and bay for snorkeling and other water activities were a bit steep but well worth the...More

Willie Nelson - Uncloudy Day

Uploaded by ne033x on Jan 7, 2012

Willie Hugh Nelson (born April 30, 1933) is an American country music singer-songwriter, as well as an author, poet, actor, and activist. The critical success of the album Shotgun Willie (1973), combined with the critical and commercial success of Red Headed Stranger (1975) and Stardust (1978), made Nelson one of the most recognized artists in country music. He was one of the main figures of outlaw country, a subgenre of country music that developed at the end of the 1960s as a reaction to the conservative restrictions of the Nashville sound. Nelson has acted in over 30 films, co-authored several books, and has been involved in activism for the use of biofuels and the legalization of marijuana.

Born during the Great Depression, and raised by his grandparents, Nelson wrote his first song at age seven and joined his first band at ten. During high school, he toured locally with the Bohemian Polka as their lead singer and guitar player. After graduating from high school in 1950, he joined the Air Force but was later discharged due to back problems. After his return, Nelson attended Baylor University for two years but dropped out because he was succeeding in music. During this time, he worked as a disc jockey in Texas radio stations and a singer in honky tonks. Nelson moved to Vancouver, Washington, where he wrote "Family Bible" and recorded the song "Lumberjack" in 1956. In 1960, he signed a publishing contract with Pamper Music which allowed him to join Ray Price's band as a bassist. During that time, he wrote songs that would become country standards, including "Funny How Time Slips Away", "Hello Walls", "Pretty Paper", and "Crazy". In 1962, he recorded his first album, And Then I Wrote. Due to this success, Nelson signed in 1964 with RCA Victor and joined the Grand Ole Opry the following year. After mid-chart hits during the end of 1960s and the beginning of the 1970s, and the failure to succeed in music, Nelson retired in 1972 and moved to Austin, Texas. The rise of the popularity of Hippie music in Austin motivated Nelson to return from retirement, performing frequently at the Armadillo World Headquarters.

In 1973, after signing with Atlantic Records, Nelson turned to outlaw country, including albums such as Shotgun Willie and Phases and Stages. In 1975, he switched to Columbia Records, where he recorded the critically acclaimed album, Red Headed Stranger. The same year, he recorded another outlaw country album, Wanted! The Outlaws, which he recorded with Waylon Jennings, Jessi Colter, and Tompall Glaser. During the mid 1980s, while creating hit albums like Honeysuckle Rose and recording hit songs like "On the Road Again", "To All the Girls I've Loved Before", and "Pancho & Lefty", he joined the country supergroup The Highwaymen, along with fellow singers, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, and Kris Kristofferson. During 1990 Nelson's assets were seized by the Internal Revenue Service, that claimed that he owed US $32,000,000. It was later discovered that his accountants, Price Waterhouse did not pay Nelson's taxes for years. The impossibility of Nelson to pay his outstanding debt was aggravated by weak investments made by him during the 1980s. Nelson released in 1991 The IRS Tapes: Who'll Buy My Memories?, the profits of the double album, destined to the IRS and the auction of Nelson's assets cleared his debt by 1993. During the 1990s and 2000s, Nelson continued touring extensively, and released albums every year. Reviews ranged from positive to mixed. Nelson explored genres such as reggae, blues, jazz, and folk. Nelson made his first movie appearance in the 1979 film, The Electric Horseman, followed by other appearances in movies and on television.

Nelson is a major liberal activist and the co-chair of the advisory board of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, which is in favor of marijuana legalization. On the environmental front, Nelson owns the bio-diesel brand Willie Nelson Biodiesel, which is made from vegetable oil. Nelson is also the honorary chairman of the Advisory Board of the Texas Music Project, the official music charity of the state of Texas.

Regular Everyday Normal Guy 2 Lyrics

Steve: You want some more of this bitch? Back in the heezy. We can do this all year long.

Im just a regular everyday normal muthafucka
I told you in the first song, Ill tell you in another.
Im just a regular everyday normal motherfucker
I dont have a girlfriend my hands my only lover.
Im just a regular everyday normal muthafucka
One night a week my mom likes to cook me supper.
Im just a regular everyday normal motherfucker
And Michael Keaton was my favorite Batman.

I was walking down the street just the other day
I saw these two fine bitches
they were walkin my way
Yo whatchu girls doin tonight?
is what I wanted to say
but suddenly I panicked
my voice started to shake.
so I put my head down
and I just walked away
I had a bus to catch anyway,
it worked out great.
Got on the bus put my headphones on and pressed play
Sheryl Crow, James Blunt, and motherfuckin Ace of Base.
Yo, what can I say,
its just a day in my life
Im up early in the morning
in bed early at night.
To be productive at work
I gotta be well rested.
Yeah muthafucka,
you heard what I just said.

Im just a regular everyday normal muthafucka
I dont like margarine I much prefer the taste of butter.
Im just a regular everyday normal motherfucker
My favorite movies as a kid were Superman and Ghostbusters.
Im just a regular everyday normal muthafucka
I have a hard time opening my eyes under water.
Im just a regular everyday normal motherfucker
and Im not a huge Nicholas Cage fan.

Im from a
lower-middle class family,
me and my brothers and sisters
played hide and seek,
I have good memories
from my childhood bitch,
my favorite toy
was my fuckin fire truck bitch,
I used to play with that motherfucker all day long,
until I learned about sex from the Sears catalog
and then I played with my muthafucka all day long
about 10 times a day man, all year long.
My favorite song motherfucker
I dont like to admit it
is a Celine Dion song
from the movie Titanic.
Every night in my dreams,
I see youI feel you
Every time I hear that fuckin shit
a tear comes to my eye.
Why the fuck did Leonardo Di Caprio have to die?
Though Im not afraid to say
that Im a sensitive guy,
sticks and stones break my bones
but its the words that make me cry.
Like that time in Grade 3
when a girl called me stupid face,
she really hurt me,
whyd she call me stupid face?
Is my face stupid?
Hows that even possible?
A person can be stupid
but a face? Thats impossible.
Shit happens all the time
and you learn how to deal with it,
Regular, everday, normal fuckin bullshit.

Im just a regular everyday normal muthafucka
When I get into a fight I usually leave on a stretcher.
Im just a regular everyday normal motherfucker
When I got nothin to say I usually talk about the weather.
Im just a regular everyday normal muthafucka
I like the 1st Back to the Future but the 2nd one was better.
Im just a regular everyday normal motherfucker
I like red peppers better than the green ones.
Ooooohoooooosavin up my money
to go buy a new dishwasher.
Mine broke about 6 months ago.
Mother fucker.
Go Go Go Go
Go shorty, its your birthday,
Go party like its your birthday.
I wasnt invited, but its okay.
Ill just stay at home and play some video games.

Steve: You want some of this? Come and get it.
