Unfortunately our lovely doctor Mel was due to leave in the early part of November. To commiserate this occasion we got permission to build a huge bonfire and burn all our scrap wood. The guys spent the latter half of the day piling up the wood in a teepee like fashion and Martony organised what to...

History Of The Guild Guitar By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Johnny_Stall]Johnny Stall Al Dronge and George Mann started the Guild Guitar Company in 1952. Their workshop was located in New York City and their first line of guitars consisted of a small selection of arch-top electric and flattop...
Introduction When I lie in my rather uncomfortable, squeaky bed at night I often drift off and try to imagine just what it would be like to be a rock star. The fame, the adulation, the money, the flash cars (I can't actually drive, but that's not the point is it?) and the five star hotels. All of...
It has been a very dark week in this land. Much doom, much to be gloomy about. Times like these make me wish my father had kept his Canadian citizenship. But then I remind myself of the thirteen holy reasons to love America despite its shady leaders, twisted foreign and domestic policy, and general...
It may have notoriously waving wheat and pastures full of prime Angus steak, but truth be told, Oklahoma’s food scene is most famous—in certain very exclusive, you understand, very select circles—for my mother’s holiday baking. For nearly twenty years, December was no ordinary month on my...
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) - Bo Diddley, a founding father of rock 'n' roll whose distinctive "shave and a haircut, two bits" rhythm and innovative guitar effects inspired legions of other musicians, died Monday after months of ill health. He was 79. Diddley died of heart failure at his home in Archer,...
There is so much interest in creating virtual realities when it appears that if we all just live long enough and wait for senility to arrive we will all have our own virtual reality. Some days I already feel as though I am living in another dimension at least. When I was very small we used to live...
Yes, I realize that my last post referenced Conan. But this isn't by any means turning into a blog devoted to him. Though I'd have no problem finding out that one exists. Instead, I wanted to share my experience with going to see a taping of Late Night about a month ago. Before Sharla and I had gone...
The democratic primaries in Indiana and North Carolina got me thinking about state flags. They are symbolic and many people take pride in them. But they are meant to represent states and I think that we could do better. The following are ideas for state flags that I think would better represent the...
“The best thing one can do when it's raining is to let it rain.” Henry Wadsworth Longfellow After years of drought and the threat of the city running out of water, I have been filled with gratitude for the abundance of rain we have received this year. HOWEVER, I have to confess that today,...
Here is the blather portion: So, the tao of sexy. (I'm not referring to religious taoism; just the term itself.) The way of things in our world is to be sensual. Communities and groups who attempt to deny sensuality sometimes act as though it is unnatural, when it is, in fact, they who are being...
I'll leave the post-game analysis to the pundits. I'm told I was pretty bad, but not bad enough to take home Lord Ramsey's Cup two years running. Even though I was a little sad to hand it over, I'm OK with it. Really. I got beat by a very worthy adversary. I still hold my head high that I put in a...
Hi, guys. Thanks for keeping the place so warm and tidy while I was gone. It’s good to come home to you. Three weeks, gone in a blur. It’s hard to know where to start. I remember saying to people sometimes, during the year or so that I lived in Paris, that the city felt like my second home. In...
MUSICPAUSE n.: the moment – usually some time in your late 20s or early 30s – when you start thinking that all music "these days" is crap. (From Jon Sufrin, Toronto) Musicpause appeared in the January 24th version of Toronto Star's weekly feature "The week's best invented words". I think...
...is what I've got. How about a lazy YouTube post of some music that I like lately? OK! "Run-Away" by the Super Furry Animals! Starring Matt Berry and directed by Richard Ayoade! I'm going to be seeing SFA in a couple of weeks and couldn't be more excited about it! Here's another one:...
For the second day running I am the bearer os sad news, today it is the passing of Mike Smith the singer and keyboard player in The Dave Clake Five, Dave Clark being the drummer. More detailed information below, however, here is probably their best known song. He died yesterday from pneumonia at...
The TV writers' strike is finally over! Thank God. This is the first time in my life where I'm genuinely interested in television. I never really watched TV shows growing up, not ones with story lines, anyway. For me it was always about sports, news and the weather (in that order). Growing up (gulp)...
It's a new week, and it's time for the next ten on my list!!! -Plus, I'm going to post an extra song at the end for my friend Mainmor. #40: Alien Ant Farm - "Smooth Criminal". I liked Michael Jackson's version of this, when it came out, but when Alien Ant Farm did it, I was like "Michael who?" (ha...
