I remember the old school fondly, and the new school is fantastic. There were only a couple of dozen of …These are the dog days of summer. It's hot and we're all much slower moving (well, we may quicken our pace to find air conditioning).

Went through a scorcher last week - and a day when the air conditioning quit at work (92 degrees in the office by day's end). We're promised a respite later in the week this week, but it's supposed to climb over 90 again on M…We're back from my son's wedding. The wedding was great - pulled off without any hitches, even when it was moved inside due to the iffy weather. It worked out great. Again, all thanks go to John and Lisa for putting everything together - they d…I was in Chicago earlier this week. I didn't get much of a chance to see the city, as I was mostly inside a hotel at a conference. I stayed at a hotel next to Grant Park, which was nice. I had a chance to walk around in the morning there before…Well, it's pretty much become all wedding, all the time around here. What was once an event that was far away is coming into sharper focus. Nick was up to teach Kate how to dance (they weren't very successful, but I wasn't around to help - I t…I recently got the Muddy Waters anthologies - with most of these, I have 95% or so of the material already, but it's a good introduction to his stuff, and at less than three dollars for the 3 CD's, well worth it. Resonance Records released a new Gra…It's June - we've made it this far in the year without getting blown up - let's keep up the good work! This month is very busy for me.

I've had a couple of cortisone shots for it, and while I've complained that they weren't effective, they did relieve some of the symptoms. Problem was…Spring is a season of change. The earth begins to renew, flowers spring up, trees and animals, and sometimes it's time for humans to make or face changes. My son is getting married in June, so he's facing a change. Oh, it'll mostly be a subtle …
A little Australia to begin the day.Well, after some occasional snow this week (none of which stayed around here, but in Northern New Hampshire - geez), looks like spring might actually be happening. Looks like a pretty solid week of spring in the forecast - let's hope.Well, it's tax time again - seems like it happens every year around this time.
