I remember a day when a men's shaving commercial would have some stud with a heavy beard, who just after shaving, had a hot woman all over him. Behold: https://youtu.be/L6q_2JleoqY That there is a Sideshow Bob, who looks like he needs to shave maybe once a week. After their screwup commercial, Gillette is off my … Continue reading Learn to Shave

A good one
I often listen to music as I work or type this blog. A lot of the time I'm listening to podcasts, but that's another thing. As I was typing the other day this came on my iTunes: https://youtu.be/DxOu-G7rgI4 First I saw these guys was when they were with Michael W. Smith at the Dallas Symphony … Continue reading A good one
He has Risen
https://youtu.be/G_x-HM7lroA This song means Easter. And I didn't pick it because they are Ukrainian. I picked it because it was the best.
Nexgrill 2
When we moved to the new house, I gave away my ancient Weber Genesis. It was a first generation that I used, and fixed since 1992. So I got 25 years out of it. Gave my smoker away as well. It was my second New Braunfels brand, and it sucked. Leaky as hell, it was … Continue reading Nexgrill 2
Squared Away
I got a lot to say on Ukraine. But others say it better. I've been busy as hell this week, and struggled to find something other than a lament to write about. Then I hit this on Knuckleddraggin: https://youtu.be/4LtHlYZwaiY Dude got a video of him guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Very, Very cool. … Continue reading Squared Away
Why Johnny Can’t Play
Stacy McCain had a piece up on music that really resonated with me about the Band "Chicago" music back in the day. I love music. All kinds. I play music - both guitar and bass, and have for decades. I'm good at it. Not great, but competent. By the way, a lot of friends that … Continue reading Why Johnny Can’t Play
Finding a Carving Knife
The Feral Irishman had a most up the other day asking for comments on decent cooking knives. The results are here. The series got me thinking that I plan on roasting some beasts for Christmas dinner, and I may need a new carving knife. Hell, I'm a guy. Any excuse, right? I have a cheapie … Continue reading Finding a Carving Knife

An oldie... https://youtu.be/mTqTE7aNjZQ Sure. Lip Syncing no doubt. https://youtu.be/vOQGNzCq0l0 Old dude making it happen. They couldn't dream of lyrics like this today: There's a port on a western bayAnd it serves a hundred ships a dayLonely sailors pass the time awayAnd talk about their homesAnd there's a girl in this harbor townAnd she works layin' … Continue reading Sunday Music
Gonna be a Long Day…
It's raining today. Not the gully washer storms that happen in the spring and summer. The drizzle and rain of North Texas in the fall/winter. And I'm dealing with three big dogs that are mostly inside, when they'd be outside letting off steam. Think of 5 year old boys, stuffed with candy, only with teeth … Continue reading Gonna be a Long Day…

One of his best songs... https://youtu.be/M1p9pkIPoCE I prefer the guitar as the lead. But, what can you do? Best I could find. The song tells a story few could articulate these days. I remember standing on the corner at midnightTrying to get my courage upThere was this long lovely dancer in a little club downtownI … Continue reading Sunday Music
