Pardon the interruption

So I got caught up in the planning and what not of the big birthday ride instead of writing the rest of the Grand Oman Adventure.
In fact I’m on the big birthday ride right now so nothing of interest will be posted for at least a few weeks.
Sorry. But your patience will be [...]

Hot Sexy Turkey

So Last night I finally pulled the trigger on one of the free turkeys I got over the holidays. I decided to try it outside on the rotisserie. Well it was coming along beautifully. It was soooo nice. Crispy outside, tender and juicy inside. Then my propane tanks went empty. I had to finish it [...]

Hood TV

So I still have a few more days till ATT connects the Castle to the U-verse. It’s not like I don’t have anything to occupy my time as there are plenty of boxes that won’t be unpacking themselves. And the Penthouse isn’t exactly in here’s-the-keys-where’s-my-deposit condition.
But every now and again I need to stop [...]

That was a fun trip

Analog answer to a digital question

So here I am in Vegas. Not really diggin it as much as I could, but y’know, I’m coping. I think one of the big reasons is that I’m here working a pretty brutal schedule. Long days that start really early.
As if there is some great sentient will that wants me enjoy myself, we finished [...]

Back to the Lost Coast

So the last time I went to the Lost Coast it was with a group of friends. We were all checking it out for the first time and it was a great discovery for all of us. Since then I have been back in the area once before and I couldn’t wait to do it [...]

400 through the Haze

So I had another rare weekend with no overtime to work. I guess I can’t really call it rare as it has been happening quite alot lately, but whatever.
I kept the weekend open because CitizenR was headed home from her 9 day tour of the Grand Tetons with her dad. They parted ways in Green [...]

Full on Babboon ass

So my buddy Freddo is gettin’ hitched. Our buddy the Messican put together a little bachelor party ride to Reno for a nondescript Friday. Since I had the whole week prior to the bachelor party available for vacation I decided to make it a scenic tour and go the long way, through Portland OR. I [...]
