Rants and Ravings of a Misguided Dreamer and Observer
Salutations™!! Today was a big day in releases. A lot of things came out. Let’s run through some… Love To Love You Baby from Donna Summer (with the title track, her first big hit) turns 45. The Roaring Silence from Manfred Mann’s Earth Band (with “Blinded By The Light”) and No Reason To Cry from Eric Clapton…
Salutations™!! Another Saturday passes that we didn’t get to darken the door of Underdog Records. That doesn’t mean Underdog isn’t busy. Heck no! Jonathan is running himself ragged to make deliveries and has extended the reach to Greensboro, High Point and other places. So, definitely watch the Underdog Records Facebook and Instagram and watch what…
Salutations™!! The BCPF and I are worn out! A long day of flying and waiting and walking and carrying bags and, and, and, and! We finally got home around 6pm this evening and I went on to trivia because I didn’t want Our Jim to be alone. Turns out, we had no representation other than…
Salutations™!! The BCPF and I went to a quaint bistro here in Boston for our anniversary and had a delicious meal that you’ll read more about this week on The Man Who Ate the Town. While we were there, and as I was using my special light to take my pictures, we struck up a…
Salutations™!! I”m going to skip all the anniversary storytime stuff that I normally put on these. I figure that by now I’ve said all I can say without being redundant. I could probably go back a year, two years, three years and copy and paste something, but this one is different. It’s the first time…

Salutations™!! You knew it was coming, right? We’re in Boston so the Sounds Like Saturday for this week had to be a Boston tune. Also, the cover is the work of one of my favorite YouTubers, Mike Massé (with Jenny Oaks Baker on violin). Enjoy! Oh! And happy would-be 85th birthday to my father-in-law, David…
Salutations™!! The BCPF and I asked the concierge for recommendations for dinner last night and we were given a few choices. We know we’re going to have Italian in “Little Italy” and being as we are in New England and on the coast, we’ll have plenty of opportunities to grab seafood. We also are probably…
Salutations™! So, we’ve made it to Boston, Dear Reader. The flights up (to Laguardia in NYC and then to Boston) were pretty good. I am a fan of Delta’s Comfort+ class of seats. But, we were able to grab an Uber to our hotel and the driver sounded just like Cliff Claven. John Ratzenberger was…
Salutations™!! Tonight we recorded The Less Desirables and had a fantastic time with my friends, including the guest, Beth Blair and a friend of mine and the show’s Nutrimom TB, talking art, massage, healing, life, beer, everything! You can listen to that HERE! Around 9pm, though, my vacation started. What does that mean? Well, duh,…

Salutations™!! Here’s the phone conversation: The BCPF: “Hello.” Me: “So, baby… I love you!” The BCPF: “Um… I love you.” Me: “I fixed the shower (it had been leaking really badly (I was proud of myself – that’s another conversation)).” The BCPF: “Yay! Thank you.” Me: “And… I love you!” The BCPF (with trepidation): “I…
