Have always loved music. Have tried guitar and singing growing up, but never really got as good as I would have hoped. Trying my hand at music production now, with the help of Ableton and a host of nice equipment I've invested in recently.

Just a bum, bumming around. 
“The American police are involved in psychological warfare against those Americans who don’t frighten them with imposing papers and threats. It’s a Victorian police force; it peers out of musty windows and wants to inquire about everything, and can make crimes if the crimes don’t exist to its satisfaction. ‘Nine lines of crime, one of boredom,’ said Louis-Ferdinand Céline.”
—From Jack Kerouac's “On the Road” (1957) 
In that context, I believe it means that one out of every 10 criminal offenses is a trumped up charge by a police officer with nothing better to do.
