Rants and Ravings of a Misguided Dreamer and Observer
Salutations™!! I’ve been putting off doing an OS update on the studio Mac. This is for several reasons. Just two of these reasons were: I knew it would take a while and I was worried that some of my podcast features/workflow/needs wouldn’t be compatible with the new update, called High Sierra, by the way. …
Salutations™!! Yesterday was such a beautiful day and it was really relaxed since The BCPF and I didn’t have to camp out for the hectic scene that was Record Store Day. We walked, ate at Mary’s Gourmet Diner, bought records at Underdog Records, listened to records, and ate at Willows Bistro before getting home before…
Salutations™!! So, last night when The BCPF and I were driving back from GSO, we were listening to some yacht rock on Sirius XM and this song came on. I love the album that it’s from. I have the Fleetwood Mac album that it was on but I haven’t listened to it, yet. I will….
Salutations™!! I meant to write this earlier today but time wasn’t on my side. I mentioned in my post yesterday that I had yet another doctor’s appointment. It was with a dermatologist. Her name was Dr. Liu. My general practitioner referred me to her when I asked him about something on my back. About four months…
Salutations™!! Let me tell you, Dear Reader… I’m worn out. Both emotionally and physically. I’ve not been sleeping the best I could be even though I have been using my CPAP machine. I sleep long hours but it’s not the best rest. Last night, for example, I slept over seven hours. But, I feel…

Salutations™!! Usually, Tuesdays are for piggybacking The Man Who Ate the Town, but we didn’t do a podcast today so we’re not piggybackin’. But, yesterday, a very important figure in my childhood passed away. Bob Dorough, the main songwriter behind the very popular 70s/80s children’s interstitial program, Schoolhouse Rock passed at the age of 94. He was…

Salutations™!! So, this Thursday commences the 2018 NFL Draft. And, in celebration, or preparation, of this event our The Less Desirables Network show, Fan Interference, does our (almost) annual draft special. This is never a quick event. Most of the time, Fan Interference is about an hour long. Usually just shy. This special, though, is…
Salutations™!! So, the thing I want to say first is this: as much as I don’t mind the cold, sitting outside when the temperature drops to 41° and the wind comes barreling in at 3:45am in the morning and you’re in line for the Super Bowl of Records and Vinyl. That “ish” sucks like a…

Salutations™!! So today marks the two year anniversary since we lost one of the most prolific and important musicians in my lifetime. Prince Rogers Nelson died from an opioid overdose in what is probably a heinous crime that resulted in someone getting a slap on the wrist. Oh well, right? Pshaw. Anywhat, here’s one of…
