Rants and Ravings of a Misguided Dreamer and Observer
Salutations™!! Threadbare Trio was supposed to play in Greensboro tonight at Common Grounds but something came up and we needed to cancel. So, with that means that what I was going to write about (us playing) won’t happen. But, Bryan Toney is still playing so go see him do his thing. So, I just want to say…
Salutations™!! So, I’m doing this new thing. Yes, I gave out on the lists that I was going to listen to and I am still going to do vinyl albums that I’m listening to but I’ve called on my Facebook friends to give me five or six of their “must hear” albums. I’ve gotten quite…
Salutations™!! Note: I liked what I wrote about this day last year so I just copied it and reposted. It’s hard to write this story without repeating myself so, why fight it? I want to bring attention to the fact that I’m still here to annoy you, Dear Reader. I am happy to be able to…
Salutations™!! Today on The Man Who Ate the Town Podcast, Kelly and I talked with Josh Trusler from Shokunin Ramen that is coming to downtown WSNC later this year (hopefully). Hard to put a date on it because it is much later in the year and as we all know, in the restaurant biz, target…
Salutations™!! So, today was another milestone in the life of being the paternal unit of 3B. Next month is the biggest he’s done yet but right now we’ll talk about the first time he shaved. Yeah, I know it’s a little thing but to me, it’s a big deal. He’s had to deal with spotty…
Salutations™!! Yesterday was a beautiful day. It was warm but not hot, the humidity was quite low, the windows on “Annabelle” were all open, including the moonroof. The BCPF and I walked around Old Salem and visited with friends at the Cobblestone Farmers Market, at breakfast at Mary’s Gourmet Diner, visited Underdog Records, put…
Salutations™!! I usually don’t like that gutteral throat growl that metal uses but I didn’t mind it so much here (for the most part). The girl’s (Hannah Boultin) voice is nice. I love the original of this song and I have loved several covers of it. This is a pretty good rendition. So, enjoy! Until tomorrow,…
Salutations™!! Tonight, I used a reference to an advert from my teen years. The reason I used the reference is irrelevant but the reference was to Polaner’s All Fruit and it’s “please pass the jelly” ads. So that got me to thinking of other ads from the 80s and 90s, heck even the 70s since…
Salutations™!! Okay, so, I’m admitting this is late because we had a long night. But, there’s nothing like going to a baseball game with your teenage son, just the two of you and it’s especially nice when the home team wins. It’s even nicer when it’s a memorable game. So, 3B and I cooked…
Salutations™!! Bull’s Tavern, the Official Beer Sponsor of The Less Desirables, presents Hulihe’e Rye IPA from Fonta Flora Brewery, The Less Desirables Beer of the Week. This is the beginning of a trend, I think. Danielle brought us some fantastic beer that you can’t get from anywhere else in Downtown WSNC. Bull’s Tavern, through a…
