Heading to Bean Town
Tonight, after supper, I’m headed down for an overnight stay at the VA in White River Junction, VT in order to catch the van in the morning for the Jamaica Plains VA in Boston, Ma tomorrow. All for what most likely will be a 20 minute follow up to a procedure I had done over [...]
Back From the VA Finally and it’s my Hip!
Okay, so I’m back. Now let’s make a long, bumpy (the ride) story rather…well…as long as it needs to be.
In 1981 someone dropped their end of a piece of rather large equipment and I ended up with a somewhat broken back–meaning I could still walk…after a fashion…with a lot of gritting of teeth. But because [...]
Wobbly cat, wobbly me and off to the quilt shop I go.
Just a quick post to let you folks know that I’ll be watching my wife’s quilt shop this weekend while she’s doing her big show down in Woodstock, VT. I’m opening an hour late since I had to retrieve one of our cats from an emergency run to the vet yesterday (wobbling, falling over, that [...]

The rest of the time was spent writing, working my own small, mobile sound production studio and riding around on Harley [...]

Switching to Mac? (I don’t know about that)
The more I read the (tech) news these days, the more I hear about the Microsoft’s latest doing’s and the less I like what I’m reading.
I have been an MS user from the PC’s “BW” era (Before Windows). I did have my choice at one time though. My Sound [...]

Required reading: Tags and Categories-Tagged Again! Part I
Many thanks to Grandad. This absolutely horrendous, disjointed post is all his fault but he’ll probably blame it on K8.
