When I was at my parents house I decided to make a catalog of all the artwork hanging there. I quickly discovered there were more paintings that are in trash bags in the basement. Quite a few of them I forgot that they even existed. Just for fun I’ll catalog them all here with a […]
Monday
Welcome to PALIN country! You’ve come a long way, baby! (taken a few hundred feet up the road — and two months after the election — from the house I grew up in) On Monday morning I awoke at an ungodly hour (PST) to ride to Columbus and meet up with my cousin and two […]
Sunday
On Sunday I woke up to home-made buttermilk blueberry waffles with homemade apple syrup and homemade apple juice (are you noticing a theme here). There was also sausage -but we didn’t kill the pigs. In the early afternoon I headed over to my old friend Kenny’s house. I hadn’t seen Kenny since just before I […]
Saturday
On Saturday the majority of my mother’s extended family came for a christmas visit. Many of these relatives I hadn’t seen since thanksgiving 2003 (if my memory is correct). Most of them didn’t look much older (except for the kids). One of my cousins looked a lot more like me without the Harley Davidson facial […]

I’m starting to get into Dylan. Ironically most of these songs aren’t ever played on classic rock radio. Stuff like: 4th Time Around I Want You You’re a Big Girl Now
the greatest
I don’t really like any other Cat Power songs, …but this one is The Greatest. Been listening to this all day long.
christmas time this year
I woke up at 5:30 and was on my way to LAX by 6. Of course, even though there were few people on the freeway – there was STILL an accident at the 101/405 connector. I made it to JohnnyPark in about 35 minutes though. As I waited for their shuttle bus I saw three […]
