Hi Kids! Can I come say hi for a while?

Yes, the DU break has to continue for the most part, but I miss my Lounge Lizards.

How's everybody? I'm busy as hell but going off Saturday to Portland to see my new favorite band: St. Paul and the Broken Bones.

Think Stax of Wax fronted by Truman Capote channeling Wilson Picket.

I've been in NOLA for the past few days and I fly back tomorrow. Cool city, awesome food. I'm going to have to learn some new cooking recipes.

Have fun in Portland.

I'm back to work, playing in traffic, so I can buy birdseed.
My doves are moving into a bigger cage cause they keep raising new babies. The population just increased by 2 more. That makes 21 ( sheesh I think. Have you ever tried to count a flock of birds? )

Are they performing in concert or at a local drinking establishment? Have a great time and come back and let us know how the show was.

... and let me tell you, "Stax of Wax fronted by Truman Capote channeling Wilson Pickett" was damned hard to imagine.
