Happy Friday and second day of spring. It's snowing here of course. It feels more like a fall snow than a winter snow so that must mean something. I think I am going to have a few beers tonight. Cheers!

I understand it was 52* this morning when I left for work and it felt more like a spring then winter 52* I will enjoy a few in spiritual harmony. I spent quite a bit of my youth in the UP mom and most of our relatives grew up there.

Enjoy your snowy evening. There can't be many more of those for you this year.
My kids were so envious of the north because they didn't grow up with snow. I took them to New York at Christmastime. It was 5F. They haven't said a peep about getting back into the cold again.

When I was younger we used to stay at the palm pavilion there in Clear Water periodically. We'd go down for about a weeks or so around Christmas and visit my Grandparents who were snow birds and my Aunt that lives in Tampa. I spent as much time as I could on the pier. Wasn't much to catch that time of year, but it was better than nothing.
Palm Pavilion is still there. That's a beach landmark. I've played soccer out in front of it with my kids soccer team. Soccer in loose sand is a great exercise!
Beach volleyball is fun too, but I'm not very good at it.
Gordon Lightfoot made me think of a lot of music I haven't listened to in a long time.

He had me at aircraft carrier.
Chef, I might have mentioned it before but I truly love your avatar.. Motorcycle pulling a person on snowskies. That looks like a hell of a lot of fun. Wonder it the bike's tires were studded? Pretty good lean going on by the biker.
Kate Bush (who I've *clearly* demonstrated in this thread) is the world's greatest singer has announced her first live performance (absence a few guest appearances) since 1979. Unfortunately, she is only performing at London's Hammersmith Apollo. England. I cannot afford to go to England. I have failed in life.
Here's a cover for ya. Something the boys and I recorded in the studio recently. When I say studio I mean the unglamorous kind where you have to pay by the hour and don't even get any free coffee My buddy just got a great job and decided to splurge for some time. The guy that owns the place was a homebrewer. Even had some fermentors chugging away when we went in. Cool guy, likes to smoke flavored tobacco out of the hooka. Cracked me up looking in there and seeing him puffin away while he was running the sound booth. Not a bad track. I used triggers to record my drums for the first time. The tom fills came out kind of whack, I wasn't really happy. Everything else sounds ok though. I couldn't afford to chip in much, so it is what it is. I thought the guitar track came out pretty good. My buddy Zack is amazing.

That was nice. A very good cover.
I've never shared any of my music with anyone here. So here is a taste. This is one of the only two ballads we ever did. Most of it was much louder and upbeat stuff. But many folks seemed to love this song. So here is the video. I'm the guy playing the second solo.

Last night I picked up 8lbs of strawberries for some strawberry wine. This morning fell asleep at 2:30am. Got up at 6 am. Went to the dentist. Had a tooth extracted, two more reshaped to act as anchors, and a temporary bridge done today. Filled antibiotics and pain prescriptions, came home and varnished my last painting for a friend. On the upside, I have a really good reason not to work an extra day after my 60ish hour week last week.
No idea why I posted that. First time I've been to a pub in a few years. Reminds me why I don't go to them. The crowd was really nice though.

I hate tooth problems, I feel for you. Just make sure you stay on their good side at work. I've been through a couple downsizing events. It sucks having to pile on the work and sit back and watch your coworkers get picked off groups at a time. Then, one day, you get called to a meeting. Everyone knows what's up, but no one wants to believe it until they actually hear the words. You can always tell who has the most debt at those meetings. They look like we're waiting on the executioner to bring out our lethal injections.
I like it!
^^ Where is Stauff?
I was wondering where Bobbi Lynn disappeared to too.

Thought she was going on vacation kinda off grid or something
Stauff hasn't checked in for a while, hope he's just work busy
I don't know about you folks. Weekends and especially Sundays are when I write here, ramble here the most. A weekday is not out of the question but weekends, Sundays most.
Then again it's Friday night and I seem to be posting a lot.
This thread has a little over 13,500 replies. People have come and gone, some never come back, some come back after a break.
I am a bit worried about Stauff. He's been here for a long time. I think pretty much since this thread started many moons ago. I'm a bit of a worry wort. Mike is a really good guy, we all know that. I'm sure he will be back soon and if he's not.. I'm freaked out. Give us a cheers or something Stauff.
