I couldn’t exactly think of a subject line that was completely appropriate, and the above seemed to at least cover it, although there are probably some that would argue (myself included!) that this blog is ALL about “scattered musical thoughts!” Anyway. Friday night, I got together with my buddy Corey for a long overdue hangout […]

Adventures in going to the post office: Special failure edition
Dear readers, I hope this finds you well and stuffed full of Thanksgiving memories. Today, I officially began the beautiful thing that some like to refer to as a “four day weekend.” Unfortunately, I made the mistake of trying to be semi-productive. For those of you that have been following the limited details of my […]
Speaking of Girl In A Coma…plus more GNR
That first official day of fierce in your face winter with lots of snow, snow, and more snow, accessorized with wind, really took it out of me yesterday. It was snowing pretty good as I left the west side yesterday morning to drive to the east side for work. While at work, it snowed all […]
Now that I see Daphne Zuniga’s picture, I’m kind of sorry we never met…
My co-worker Michael brought up the name of actress Daphne Zuniga yesterday, which met with a few blank stares and then my reaction, “Who’s that?” A funny bit of conversation followed that, and then things moved on, until later in the day when Michael and I had the following conversation via IM: M – Dude, […]
Random thoughts on Bruce, The Rock Hall, Yes, and a buncha other stuff
Hey kids, Happy Tuesday to ya. We’re almost at hump day – Burgo is actually already there, and he tells me that it is great. Let’s talk about sex… I realized courtesy of a comment from Allison and Twitter updates that the regular female readership of this blog is taking a big hit today, because […]
Can you say f*ck on the radio?
I was a bit under the weather last night, so I decided to skip out on previous plans, and stay in. Saturday night became movie night. Up first was The Great Outdoors with John Candy, etc. I don’t think I’ve seen it since I saw it originally in the 80s. It still holds up. Next, […]
A head on collision of music and my life
I don’t even know where to begin this one, so we’ll start here: I’m messaging back and forth today with my friend AK, one of my friends that goes way back in my timeline. I guess that she and I have known each other nearly 20 years now, and yet we know each other better […]
Heavy D is pretty awesome
The subject line above pretty much says it all! Those of you that were following my newly installed Twitter updates will know that I got to spend some time with Heavy D today. At the “day job” we have a service that provides celebrity radio interviews (via phone) to morning shows across the U.S. Today, […]
A great quote for your day…
Thanks to Mel for this one, which she found on a blog, from parts unknown… I really like this one.. If you’re in your 30s, you have baggage (ie: children, broken relationships, et al). And if you don’t? You probably didn’t have a life worth living. Amen to that! Read the rest of Mel’s entry, […]
Behind Blue Eyes – a late night adventure in my neighborhood…
Scenes from my neighborhood last night, two houses down. Meet my neighbor who lives two houses down. We’ll call him Dave. Mid to late 50s, and a walking picture of hard living. My next door neighbors often tell me how lucky I am, that I don’t live next door to Dave. And when I hear […]
