This may be a lot more than you want to spend but I bought a pair of Sony WH-1000XM4, on sale for $229. I haven't used my airpods pro since. The noise cancelling in unbelievable!

Everyone plays music in the Philippines. I may have posted this years ago but this is a blind man and his small child playing the street for pesos back in 2017. I just had a SLR camera recording so the sound is nothing special at all.

While it's more likely I'll retire early in the Philippines because of my wife and her family, from the perspective of food I think Thailand wins. I lived in The Philippines for 5 years in the late 80s. Got the wife and lost her to the US like so many kanos. I finally got my AFIB under control, aft...

You said "bark into the flute"...

Did you watch the video? Can you think of a better description? I understand by those that play the flute that the particular sound she is playing is very hard to produce so I'm not making fun of her.

Three TV shows that I've been binge watching: Have Gun-Will Travel. Richard Boone is great! Wanted Dead or Alive. Young Steve McQueen Highlander. I avoided this one for years only to discover that it is better than the original movie. What can I say? I'm not much for new tv, especially if I have to ...

Sort of on topic, but yesterday I discovered that "One Night In Bangkok" was written by the guys in ABBA. Did not know that. A lot of people do not realize that the song is an extract from the musical Chess in which Head, at one time, played one of the roles. I like this Espen Grjotheim v...

I haven't been on in a couple weeks and was catching up Surprised that no one mentioned the passing of Mojo Nixon on Feb 7. He was a true wildman, not just one that used it as a role.

I used to spend a lot of time in PCB until my father moved to Gulf Shores. Now, I just visit him there. Luckily, the tornado missed them. This time.

16" in 10 hours. That's what my girlfriend was complaining about. 4" ain't so bad but to get that 4 times in such a short period created havoc with her.

I think I have Jim's contact info. We spoke and exchanged texts many times. He is a good guy and lives in Georgia. Sorry, but I have to disagree. I bought a Gretsch Electromatic Jet from here that he claimed was perfect. When I received it, the electronics was fucked up and even had a broken wire i...

Me......

Before the draft

and after.

Sad news indeed.

Back in the mid/late 70's, there was a local southern band named Mose Jones that had a one-armed bass player.

I don't know who Raindog's Rad Team is, but it ain't me.

I've been told that it is "glorious."

Damn, another loss! RIP Gordon Lightfoot. I've been a fan since the late 70's. I am officially depressed.

The title cut from my favorite album of his:

More than Van Halen, more than Aerosmith, when I was driving my car in the mid/late-70s, I was listening to BTO. I still think that they are the #1 driving band ever. Just unbelievably feel-good music. RIP Tim Bachman. Oh, and fuck cancer!

Call me a weirdo but this is my favorite Mike Campbell song.

Sorry, I was just being a smart-ass. I actually don't drink any alcohol (except Niquel.) I own a 6-pack of the Stooges beer that a friend picked up for me a long time ago as he knows that I am a Stooges freak. It was a toss up between 3 Stooges beer and Billy Beer. aaa.jpg Hey, wait a minute! You ki...

I pass this along to preach a little at those that ignore their health, that eat nothing but junk food. In other words, people like me. I thought that I was immune to heart attacks for some reason. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------...

I got this wonderful device called a microwave where I make mine.

Anyone else watch the videos for the Russian music g Little Bigroup (I use the term "music" loosely)? Music is mostly 20xx's schlock but very weird and entertaining videos to accompany them.

Today's modern oil scene is pretty even. Pick what your manufacturer recommends and use a brand-name oil. I find that, what few people pay attention to, and of much more importance, is the filter. They may look similar but they aren't. A big difference is the bypass valve and, at what pressure it op...

Was just listening to Please Don't Judas Me.
