It’s that time of year again.  It’s our annual pilgrimage.  Just as the grizzlies of Yellowstone migrate to the upper elevations of the Absaroka in search of hearty pine nuts before winter takes hold, we humans too have a migration.  Our migration comes in many forms but the end result is the same.  Planes, trains, [...]

Came across this picture on the internet, this is what I got from it. Showing dogs isn’t a hobby.  It’s a destructive lifestyle, that often leads to alcoholism and poor wardrobe choices.  It started innocently enough for Lance Pefferton (LP), some 65 years ago in the animal shelter.  At the time the choice between the [...]

At the expense of throwing the defibrillator at this blog (see last post) I have to say that 7am MST is way too early to be using a plunger.  A Folgers induced Vesuvius rocked the early morning silence on my block.  It’s just as well though, I couldn’t sleep in. I had dreams of wolves and bears. [...]

Woofs

Stoked to hear there are woofs where I ride.  Probably will spend the weekend riding the foothills using a lamb shank as my seat cushion.  I’m currently in a wind tunnel designing a helmet whose air turbulence causes the high pitched whine of a dying coyote.  My first assumption was that this was the a [...]

Let me start this post by saying I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed.  Now, with that disclaimer out in the open the headlines in the paper continue to shock me.  Let’s break down four headlines in the same local paper on the same day…I had to laugh at the comedy of errors. 1: [...]

Same Day Headlines #1

With the world economy and politics in a state of flux I always get a kick out of the morning headlines when I turn on my computer.   Of course you can’t believe everything you read on the internet but the beauty of it is headlines either compliment or contradict one another.  In the same day you’ll [...]

Most important meal of the day

“The best part of waking up is Joe in my Vandals Cup”…..

No I’m not talking about lining my roof with 50K in solar panels so I can save 1k a year in power.  I’m setting out on foot and leaving this world behind…at least for 6 days.  Destination is wherever my machete guides me.  I’ll likely be battling apex predators atop granite cliffs while a storm [...]

I try not to let things irritate me but weathermen seem to bypass my irritation barriers and crush my mainframe with a bombardment of bunker busters.   Weathermen are like a 98 Degrees cd shoved up the tailpipe of a Civic … overplayed and exhausting.  Perhaps it’s the fault of their producers… maybe I shouldn’t [...]

I saw a post on the Internet today that liquidity is; When you look at your investments and wet your pants.  I know I’m not alone when I say that over the last 12 months my IRA has shrunk like manjunk in a cold river.  So I’m looking for a new diversified portfolio for surviving the [...]

so it begins…Day one of demo is complete.  Good thing considering I consumed enough asbestos to do without dinner.  In the before picture please disregard the brown stains coming out of the main wasteline, this is merely a coincidence.  In the after picture please disregard the shotty electrical wiring and the moldy wood.  As for [...]

Hanging out

In the words of Def Leppard “Let’s Get The Rock Outta Here!!”  That’s exactly what was running through my mind as I pitched a straight flush into a hat across my living room.  Why should I sit here when I can climb a rock wall in my basement.  And the idea was born to create a [...]
