I love watching car shows. Not the new stuff. The fix up the junk ones. My favorite is Vice Grip Garage. I'll watch everything Derek puts out. Why? Because that was me at one point. Sure, it wasn't my business, but it was my life back in the day. I'd buy beaters, fix them up, … Continue reading Cuban Chrome

Cool
Saw this dude on my car today: I have Mantis', I have ladybugs and dragon flies. There have to be at least a half dozen decent sized chameleons around here, as well as a few ghekos. Love having bug predators getting fat at my place.
Too Cool…

I'm sure I've posted this before. But I'm old and forget shit. https://youtu.be/1YQkRFzOMEQ For the uninititated, a 12 string guitar has roughly double the string tension of a six string. An Acoustic has a higher (generally) action than an electric. When you play a 12 string, you notice straight away that you don't have the … Continue reading Friday Music
Sunday Music
In my opinion, there are few bands better live than the old Little Feat. Waiting for Columbus is a seminal album, recorded at the Bayou in DC. K Street in georgetown to be precise. My old stomping grounds. Download the whole thing. But the two mental patient cuts - those you play over and over, … Continue reading Sunday Music

https://youtu.be/N-aK6JnyFmk If I didn't tell her, I could leave today... Think about modern music. How vapid it is. Dude here wrote a song because things were shitty and he went for a walk in the freezing cold to get his head straight. Came back and wrote a blockbuster. How many today could take an ordinary … Continue reading More Music
Learn to Shave
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.

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
