I hit this in iTunes and played it 20-30x like a mental patient. https://youtu.be/Gctiu2M_OdU I can't play piano. Wish I could sometimes. Props to the dude on bass. a 6 string! I played a 5-string jazz bass for awhile. It weighed a few hundred pounds. Worth it for the sound. When I got through with … Continue reading Monday Music
I feel safer
I saw this on Ace of Spades. Looks like they've cranked up the drones start bombing people again in the Middle East. This has me gape jawed Trust the Biden and his team's competence? What the hell! I don't even trust the man to know where he is or what he's doing any given minute … Continue reading I feel safer
Going to be a Great Weekend
It's late in the day on a Friday. I'm pretty much done for the week, my backups are running, and Aria is nudging my elbow. The one attached to the shoulder that had surgery. She's trying to tell me that it's will be time to put my feet up, and plan out the weekend. All … Continue reading Going to be a Great Weekend
Heat is discomfort cold is pain.
Before I start, let me explain the title. Back in my misguided youth I worked on commercial sound systems, Muzak to be exact. It was actually a cool job.

Not the best version of this tune. But it's still good. https://youtu.be/PLk1LYIAea8 Seldom Scene is awesome. Just a group of normal blokes from the area I grew up. They all had day jobs, far as I know. None of them are good looking. Only one or two have really good voices. But they can play. … Continue reading Monday Music
Dogs First Snow
I've been remiss. It's been a hell of a week. But we had snow in DFW last week. Real snow. Real, powdery skiing stuff which hasn't happened ever, to my knowledge. Fisted the whole area. We aren't setup for this. That said, The pups had never seen this stuff... https://vimeo.com/514781078 Playtime. Before the snow and … Continue reading Dogs First Snow
Welcome to Texas!
After the once in a lifetime freeze here in Dallas, I'd like to revise and extend my post welcoming the folks from other states. I'd like to add... Every few years, more than one, less than five, something will happen that will smash your stuff - your house, your car, your life. Dead freeze this … Continue reading Welcome to Texas!
Dogs are Smart
I often marvel about how smart dogs are. But maybe it's because we're stupid. We've had a spell of really cold weather lately. Much colder than it normally gets around here. In most things in nature, things slow down in the cold. Not us humans. We gotta do what we gotta do. We had a … Continue reading Dogs are Smart

"Miralax is preferable, because you can double up on it if you have to and the results aren't as...uh...explosive."My digestive PA, discussing how to handle my guts while on painkillers. FWIW, even after cancer therapy, I often find the side effects of prescription pain killers, like Fentanyl and Hydrocodone not worth it.
