Rants and Ravings of a Misguided Dreamer and Observer
Salutations™!! On The Man Who Ate the Town Podcast this week I talk about Dogwood Hops & Crops and The BCPF’s and my trip to The Katharine Brasserie and Bar. I also wrote a TMWATT article about the Katharine experience. You can see the post for the podcast HERE and the Katharine article HERE. Until…
Salutations™!! On Wednesday nights or Thursday mornings (whenever I get to it) I offer up a new playlist on Spotify. It is sometimes my list but mostly it is the playlist from The Less Desirables Network cast of characters. That means that The BCPF, Beer Dad Jon, Beer Dad Paul, Jordan from Sipping NC: The…
Salutations™!! Another truncated Saturday but we got the regular stuff in. The BCPF and I went to breakfast (I had already walked my steps this week, plus had played on Friday night in GSO) at Mary’s and then to Underdog Records. Here’s the haul: Television – Marquee Moon (#130 on the RS Top 500, new) Peter, Paul…
Salutations™!! I’ve never been a huge fan of Bruce Springsteen but I’ve always admired his playfulness and the dedication to his craft. He takes one of my favorite disco-era songs and makes it his own disco-era song. So, here I present: Until tomorrow, same blog channel… Scorp out! — “Well, you can tell by the…
Salutations™!! Yesterday, The BCPF and I escorted 3B to the campus of UNCG. It’s the beginning of university tours for when The Boy starts looking at which to attend. Yes, he’s only a sophomore but this wasn’t as much a choosing tour as it was to show him what campus life is about. The independence…
Salutations™!! Listening to, or should I say analyzing, two albums in a week brings back fond memories of doing the Rolling Stone Top 500 of All Time list. But, I’m trying to stay on track. This will help. The last album was decent but not my favorite. Eugene and Jon are now another week behind….
Salutations™!! City Beverage, the Official Beer Sponsor of The Less Desirables, presents Deschutes Brewery‘s Fresh Squeezed IPA, The Less Desirables Beer of the Week.

Salutations™!! On The Man Who Ate the Town Podcast this week I talk about my experience at Trade Street Diner. You can hear the podcast HERE and read the review HERE. Until tomorrow, same blog channel… Scorp out! — “Anyone who knows me knows that I’m a sucker for a good burger…” – The Man…
Salutations™!! Yeah, so I’m late with this, to the tune of five days, but that’s still a better time than what Eugene and especially Jon have made on this list. Nanny nanny boo boo. Oh, and if you didn’t read my blog from yesterday (shame on you!), I got last week’s (okay the week before’s)…

Salutations™!! The BCPF and I have had a busy weekend but we still got by Underdog Records. In fact, I was there three times this week. I love that place. Anywhat! Here’s the haul: Beck – Colors (Beck’s first new album since 2014’s Morning Phase, on Indie Record Store Exclusive yellow vinyl, a fantastic record, new) Concrete Blonde – Bloodletting (new)…
