Rants and Ravings of a Misguided Dreamer and Observer
Salutations™!! First, have you figured out what the numbers mean? This is the last time I’ll ask that question. That, I promise. At least about this situation. I also promise that all will be revealed tomorrow. The long confusing wait will be over-ish. So, now on with the regularly scheduled made-up blog post. Jonathan closed…
Salutations™!! Today is the 34th anniversary of George Michael’s “debut” solo album, Faith. I put that in quotes because to some, the last Wham! album could be considered mostly a George Michael solo album. Whatever… This was the first single from the album and got a lot of flack because it seemed too sexual, but…
Salutations™!! Let me start by saying that the number in the title has nothing to do with what I’m going to say here. I tallied up my totals for my podcast episodes. The last I checked, in September, it was 2186. As of today, I have produced or co-produced 2281 episodes. So 95 since September…
Salutations™!! Tonight on Asylum – Tales from the Devereaux Diaries, Kousin Gary revealed his KISS ranking. He went strictly by numbers and formulas and only barely by personal feelings. Some of his movements from his previous list were mind-blowing. Inexplicably, he put some of the best KISS albums near the bottom of the list. I…

Salutations™!! Tonight on The Less Desirables, I thought we were going to have a guest but it turns out that is scheduled for next week. Before the show, we ordered food from Xcaret via Door Dash and from what we were told the food would be there in 24 minutes. Well, it was an hour…
Salutations™!! Like last week, I had a post for yesterday, so I didn’t do the food blog promo. So, here we go… Michael and I talked about Finnigan’s Wake closing and my visit. We talked about the places in Greensboro that I went to, a new “fry” place coming, and more. We had a good…
Salutations™!! On Saturday, The BCPF and I made an international trip without leaving the state. We headed to Greensboro where we visited a business I have been VERY excited for, Scottish Gourmet USA. I don’t have to explain how much I love all things Scottish. We purchased haggis, black pudding, and back bacon. We also…
Salutations™!! Yesterday, The BCPF and I went around the world! Well, we went to some international stores and pubs. I’ll talk about that tomorrow. We also went to Underdog Records and got some goodies. Here’s the haul: Death Cab For Cutie – Plans — I asked Jonathan about this a few weeks back and he said it…

Salutations™!! Yesterday was the 47th anniversary of KISS’ second album, Hotter Than Hell. It is #6 on my KISS list. I love the album, regardless of whether it sounds like it was recorded in a tiled bathroom or not. I decided instead of a cover, I’d go to the source, but this was from earlier…
Salutations™!! A friend of mine contacted me today to say that he was longer involved with the company that he loved and put a lot of sweat behind. He left on his own but had gone through some trying time internally with himself. I had thought he was awfully quiet, but also know that with…
