This was at thing in my misguided youth... https://youtu.be/7Zh5oMJo3co If you haven't heard Little Feat's "Waiting for Columbus" you gotta get it. They recorded that album live at "the Bayou" in Georgetown DC, where I've spent many, many a night. The DJ that introduced them, "Cerphe" was a fixture in the DC area radio scene. … Continue reading Sunday Music
Who is Clay Jenkins?
Clay Jenkins is some nob judge in Dallas that thinks he can issue edicts, like a king, to control the citizens in Dallas County's lives. He recently issued an edict that those in Dallas now must mask up, again. I heard it on the news, and ignored it. As it appears most are doing. Then … Continue reading Who is Clay Jenkins?
Ribbons
I was walking the dogs the other day and noticed orange ribbons tied on tons of trees in my neighborhood. The walk at the entrance to the park I figured, what the hell. Who's virtue signaling what? I asked some geezers that I know that live around here. They had no idea, although they had … Continue reading Ribbons
Sunday Music
https://youtu.be/Nu4tjTyqbho An amazing rendition. Do you think there's a soul under 40 that could even dream of those lyrics? or even the situation that caused the song to be crafted in the first place? BB King's voice is epic. I can't think of another singer with that tenor and power. And the dude's what? Over … Continue reading Sunday Music
The Essence of Tacky
We have an issue in my neighborhood with locusts. Not the bugs. The people that come from other states, buy a property, demolish the old house, and put up a ridiculous McMansion.

It Never Ends
Every morning the boys tell me it's time to walk. Girlfriend (Aria) is usually in the sunroom on a vigil for squirrels. I have to coax her to walk. Eventually, I give in and take them out. Any why not? It buys me 8 hours of them loafing and leaving me to work. https://player.vimeo.com/video/583589445?badge=0&autopause=0&player_id=0&app_id=58479 Let's … Continue reading It Never Ends
One Vine
Cucumbers So awhile back, I put in some raised gardens. I planted one cucumber vine that I picked up at Home Depot. Then built a trellis for it to climb. After awhile, we've been getting cucumbers every day. Way more than we can eat. Which is a good thing, since I've taken a liking to … Continue reading One Vine
