GLOBAL WARMING? YA THINK?

BACKYARD BUDDIES

Here we have a few of my backyard buddies photographed this spring. The female squirrels are preggers at the moment so we should be soon seeing a new generation of these cute little critters.

SQUIRREL GRAVY

It has come to my attention that some folks make gravy out of these little guys. To protest this disgusting culinary abomination my little buddy here is making this public service announcement.

MY FAVORITE DRUMMER

My boy Jon. Not too shabby for an eleven year old kid who has never had a lesson.

MY BELOVED KPIG BLACKMAILS ITS PIGGIES

On March 15th, 2010 my favorite online radio station, KPIG out of Freedom, California turned off its free stream and became a play-for-pay corporate hog, never once notifying its devotees of its plan to do so. This station was special in that the djs still chose the playlist, unlike the prefab stations of today. It was a real throwback to radio's golden era when casual chat and silly comedy bits entertained in a heart warming way. It was comfort food for the ears as Americana, alt-country, blues and gospel made its way to my computer enabling me to turn off the constant regurgitation of FM's classic rock stations. KPIG completely changed my taste in music, introducing me to artists I had never heard of, artists who now almost completly occupy my iPod.
These photos came to me almost instantly and pretty much sum up my feelings on the matter. Lets hope that the corporate weasels have a change of heart (as if) and return the PIG to its faithful listeners.

CURLY LOCKS

Took this picture of my beautiful wife the other day and showed it to Pam only to have her say "you can't post that...I don't have any make up on". This, I do believe is my first attempt at applying makeup digitally.

TIGER NOT OUT OF THE DOGHOUSE YET

Despite Tiger's well rehearsed (and far too late) explanation and apologies, it seems that Elin has not yet forgiven his trespasses (she was a no show and Tiger's on his way back to rehab). Tour players were annoyed that he had his news conference during the Accenture tournament - the same company to first drop him when the story broke, giving the impression Tiger was trying to make some sort of a play against Accenture and perhaps the tour players that have criticized him. He could have easily done this before of after the tourney but Tiger, as always, does what Tiger wants, when he wants. So really, after all the waiting, nothing has changed. We still don't know when he'll be back on tour. He can't afford to miss Augusta, Pebble Beach and St. Andrews - courses he has excelled at. I guess we'll all have to wait and see.

CORNER BROOK CITY COUNCIL HELPS THEMSELVES

Talk of raises, Blackberries and full-time Mayor's position after only five months in office?
