Quite the gamut! I concur that Atlanta 12 String is the best Blind Willie McTell stuff.

I know a couple people in their 70s whose brains have been broken by their phones. Not sure their minds are coming back.

Thanks. Was afraid a standard search for that would get me some weird targeted ads.

Where is this? Headed there in a couple weeks.

Coldplay with a banjo is an upgrade from Creed with a banjo, imo.

at least they didn't park in the bike lane?

On my bike ride home yesterday a teenage kid give me warning, then hit me in the ass with a snowball after I rode by.

You’d think I’d be pissed, but in truth I enjoyed playing my part in such wholesome hijinx.

Shoulda taught Clyde to play the electric bass.

Once played 3 shows in a weekend in Va's eastern shore. One outdoor show got moved to a restaurant due to weather.

Three cocaine loudmouth brothers showed up and 'cheered' loudly at us all night.

They showed next day at outdoor set on a golf cart. Music on their stereo? Steely Dan, of course.

Car is out of snow bank, but has something hanging from its undercarriage now.

I stand corrected. They got it out without losing the front bumper completely. Something is hanging off of it now.

Car is now on snow bank, but still not moving far.

They’re getting closer, but my confidence level is low.

If it’s Sunday, it’s meet the press, now with 1000% more disdain and derision!

Instead you get bbc studio commentators recapping the action with ultra basic analysis. Game broadcast is Westwood one.

Shout out to everyone who ended up tuning in the bbc feed of afc championship after listening to footy and discovering that you don’t get the usual commercials.

Worth the effort to hunt up Westwood one radio stream. Better call, too.

It’s ostentatious. Three is plenty.

This procrastination on dropping additional chronicles is getting ridiculous.

She is sorta local to where I live, and I’ll be interested to see the reaction.

I hear her music, and it sounds ok, but all the songs sound the same.

This one can stay, though.

It’s comforting to see folks honoring Bob Weir in death the way they did in life; singing awful covers of his band’s songs.

They probably think you’re going through some stuff and are silently worrying.

Just got an inquiry from someone looking for work whose email handle is tourettegirl#####@gmail.com. Not sure that is the account you want to use for such matters.

Porsche Boxster parked across crosswalk outside of an orthopedic entrance to a medical facility.

Perfect parking job, especially outside the orthopedic entrance to a medical office building. No notes.

In that case, I just gave a friend some homemade β€˜bonbons gommeaux’ for Christmas.
