Rants and Ravings of a Misguided Dreamer and Observer
Salutations™!! So, yeah, today is my birthday. Usually, I talk about my birth and how lucky everyone is to have me in this world and all that… I kid, of course. But this year, I want to talk about my friends. First, I want to thank my good friends, Chef Travis Myers, Chef Brent Andruzzi,…
Salutations™!! So this week will be a mixture of the take from Underdog Records and a shload of records that I didn’t know that I owned. Let me explain. About 10 years ago, my ex-wife and my mother went to an auction (they were always going to auctions) and purchased a ton of records. They…
Salutations™!! Woke up to the news of Malcolm Young’s passing. I have never been the biggest AC/DC fan but I understand their influence and importance. Malcolm was never the “face” of the band. That was his little brother, Angus, and whoever was doing the singing. So, in honor of Malcolm, here’s a little something: Until…
Salutations™!! So, yesterday, my friend Beth (last name withheld) brought me something awesome. You know I have started doing a lot of cooking in the home now, right? Well, what I have is a couple of smaller, older chopping boards that are starting to crack and warp. I’ve been watching a lot of YouTube videos…
Salutations™!! Last week was a bit difficult for me to put my finger on. Good? Yes. My thing? No. But, that’s okay. Eugene doesn’t expect me to like everything, but he does expect me to give it a fair shake. That, I did. Jon is in the ether somewhere. Let’s do this week… #45 – Fair…

Salutations™!! My friend and fellow food blogger, by way of Greenville, SC, Nichole Livengood, also known as Gap Creek Gourmet, came up to spend some time with me on The Man Who Ate the Town podcast and we talked about the food scenes in Greenville and WSNC. You can hear more about what Gap Creek…
Salutations™!! So, today, I was on the phone with a good friend of mine. He’s been in the news a little bit the last couple of days and not for good reasons, and truly, not for the worst of reasons. But, he certainly is in a weird spot where the truth and perception start disagreeing…

Salutations™!! The BCPF and I had a very quiet Saturday. Well, quiet in terms of activities. We did the Mary’s Gourmet Diner thing and Willows thing last night, and… we did our Underdog Records thing. We came out a little light, which is okay. We got some quality stuff and that’s what matters. Here it…
Salutations™!! First of all, I want to thank all our country’s veterans for all they do to protect us. You may not be in the limelight but your contributions are definitely very important. Thank you, thank you, thank you! We all know that I really loathe listening to the “blues.” It literally turns my stomach…
