Vicodin and Crutches

No two steppin' in the New years this year.

So in 2011 I bought my first house, got my very own four legged piece of Summer and am ending the year on Vicodin and crutches. Finally sold pictures at the gallery and at end of the year found my photo groove again.

I guess I give the year two thumbs up.



People grow and seasons change and the sun goes east to west
Essence of love and golden rays of future days
Things left unsaid while passing their time
True to the soul of your wondrous mind
Countdown the dreams as a New Year starts

Peace Love and Happiness to all.
Thank you for being here everyday.
You make me smile and think and most importantly happy we are here together.

It's Friday Friday

When was the last time you heard this?

Well it seems the pilot light must have gone out on the furnace cause it is damm cold in the house this morning. Need to have the gas company come out and look at the unit since it is on the roof and I know nothing about this thing.

Last Friday of 2011. Adios.

Been a quiet week at work and I have no problems with that at all. Needed one.

Should I do a roadtrip this weekend.

Time to take a shower in my cold house.

Blues

Here is some nice tasty blues and ripping guitar work. Enjoy.

If you have not seen Breaking Bad rent it from Netflix. Brian Cranston, the dad from Malcolm in the Middle, is a teacher/meth dealer. Great tv show amd worth the rent.

So I plan to plant gourds, pepper, little maters in the garden, some herbs and a few other things. What type of fun veggie should I plant.

Come on people lets work with Iran. Yes they keep our buttons and we bite every time.
Instead of being the bully we need to try the other side of the coin of kill them with kindness. Their people will be behind us. They are an educated populace and know full well what is going on.

I still have not won lotto. Boo.

Lynn Samuels

Today's post is dedicated to the late Sirius talk show host Lynn Samuels.
Yesterday I learned that Lynn passed away on Christmas Eve.

Somewhere around 2006-2007 while roaming around the Sirius radio channels I came across this voice that was unlike anything else I had ever heard on radio. It was the voice I knew of a what one envisions of a stereotypical New York Jewish woman. I was right. I was hooked from that point on.

She was on the Sirius left channel Monday through Friday and I began listening to her at lunch most every day. Lynn's show was politics and entertainment and what was going in her apartment building or any other subject that happened to wander into her mind at the time. She was a liberal who hated Obama, wanted to carry a handgun, hated illegal immigrants, loved Stephen King and most importantly loved her audience. She had quite a foul mouth and was quite liberal in her use of "fuck" amongst other words that you can't say on regular radio.

She was my lunch date for several years. For some reason unknown to anyone Sirius took her off weekdays earlier this year and moved her to Saturday's this year. With her show being Saturday and Sunday morning's from 10 - 1 she become my weekend morning date. Going out to yard sales and flea markets or on a roadtrip Lynn was my faithful companion. This move to weekends broke her heart I believe.

Sometimes you know somebody you never met and they touch you in some way and they become part of your life. Lynn was one of those people.

The song post for today was what she played and sang along with every Friday at 2 p.m., I never did know why. She vowed never to play it again as long as she was only on weekend.

Here is her Obit in the NY Times.

Here is her website. The top two posts are Lynn Samuels Christmas and podcast 2.
They are little snipets of shows over the years. Give it a listen.

We will miss you Lynn. We will not forget you.

Movin' On

Quiet and moderately enjoyable Christmas. Presents were good and the ham was good.

Went for a nice ride yesterday and on Christmas day. Got some good pictures. Time to upload them and show the world. The groove is coming back.

I like not having to get up for work. Maybe I win 206 million in Powerball tonight.
Remodel the house house and guest garage house. Put a pool and hot tub in. Redo the yard and get a good garden growing. Buy a new vehicle and new camera. See America.
You wanna go for a ride?

What to do for New Years?

Snow in Tennessee?

The Eve

Well I expect to go to bed early tonight since Santa has a lot to leave at my house and I do not want to delay his trip over to Sammy's house.



May you all have a joyful Christmas Eve my friends.

Eve of The Eve

What the hell is up with the outfits in the second video.

Have you had any Eggnog?

Summer is getting a bath for Christmas much to her dismay.

PEZ Christmas.



Have an Eve of a day.

Wild Child

Don't post enough Doors. Here is a nice little video.

Work is having lunch for us today.

Rain yesterday. Rain today. Some rain the next few days. Where is the snow?

No Christmas fudge from Mom. Boo.

What the hell is going on in Syria?

Ron Paul? If he really is libertarian why is against abortion. It should not matter to a libertarian.

Have to go grocery shopping for bacon, eggs and food for my Christmas dinner. I guess maybe ham will the ticket.

Have a short work day.

Tired

I like Bob's version. Fits his voice quite well.

Fell asleep at 10 p.m. the last couple nights. Very tired the last few days.

Looks like rain on and off through Christmas. No chance of snow here.

I have 8 months worth of pictures on my camera. How damm lazy is that?
I need wireless upload from camera to pc.

If you use Kindle check out Kindle Nation Daily they have tons of free book listings.
It is pretty cool. I downloaded six books this past weekend.

Started getting seed catalogs. Gonna plan my garden. Thinking some little gourds might be cool to grow.

Time to walk Summer between the raindrops.

Blog with later. Sorry for being lazy.

The Countdown

Good thing we are out of Iraq we can go to Korea next.

The Solstice and Christmas are a coming. Are you ready. We are going to have a warm week. Where is the snow?

Took Summer for a 2 mile walk in the woods yesterday. She was good and tired about 3/4 of the way through and was dragging. Saw lots of deer blinds in trees and on the ground. Good thing it was afternoon time or maybe I could have been shot.

Went into a store Saturday afternoon and left when I saw the line for the four registers was about 100 people long. Wow.

Have a good Monday.

Catch up on the web comments later my friends.
