Rants and Ravings of a Misguided Dreamer and Observer
Salutations™!! There’s a meme that I responded to today (two actually) that was “I’ve just read that apparently the song that was number 1 on your 14th birthday defines your life.” The other was what song was number 1 on the day you were born? Well, the song that was number 1 when I was…
Salutations™!! Bull’s Tavern, the Official Beer Sponsor of The Less Desirables, presents Flaming Fury Peach Sour from Captain Lawrence Brewing Company, The Less Desirables Beer of the Week. This stuff was good. Sweet like a peach in a glass but enough sour beer to be just that, a sour beer. A really delicious sour beer….

Salutations™!! Kelly Bone and I recorded The Man Who Ate the Town Podcast today and it felt good to be back. We talked about several things with Jay Pierce becoming the new EC for Mozelle’s, Zesto Burgers and Ice Cream opening in East Winston and the Texas Pete Spirits of Summer Festival coming this weekend,…
Salutations™!! No need for many words other than we need to keep the fine folk who gave up their most prized possession – as well as their families, friends and loved ones – to help us keep our freedoms and liberties, no matter the circumstance. As a clarification, this is not Veteran’s Day, but we…
Salutations™!! It was a rainy, then sunny, then rainy, then sunny day yesterday. Mary’s Gourmet Diner, Underdog Records, Willows Bistro. Lots of record listening. But, it was a great day. Great. Day.

The one that makes me scream,’…
Salutations™!! Since this is the beginning of the “Weekend Deluxe” (one extra day off from regular routine), I’m going to take it easy on you and me this week, Dear Reader. I will just post something like a “Sounds Like Saturday” and leave you be for today. How about “Time” from Pink Floyd? Great! Me,…
Salutations™!! I sat and watched my aspiring chef, my 16-year old son, my boy, 3B… I watched him do “his thing.” I watched him cook. Tonight’s menu item was a Mexican pizza. So, I helped a little with some chopping and such but, really, he did everything. I love watching him do that. It took…
Salutations™!! Usually, I’d do a post about The Less Desirables Beer of the Week (brought to you by our “Official Beer Sponsor,” Bull’s Tavern), but today I’m going to talk about a KISS album. You know how I feel about me some KISS albums. So, 39 years ago today, KISS released what is probably…

Salutations™!! We didn’t do The Man Who Ate the Town again this week. This time it was Kelly’s turn to miss as she had something she had to take care of. Next week, though! I do want to say a very special thanks to DiLisio’s Italian Restaurant, Washington Perk and The Humblebee Shoppe for their…
