Have a great day guys, and don't over-do the beers and burgers... ;)

Thanks Kenny ;D. Ya know , if our founding fathers had any idea how screwed up we were going to get in a couple hundred years, they probably would have just said "the hell with it, let's just pay the tax on the tea, polish up our British accents , start driving on the wrong side of the road and we'll see what happens" ;).

Yes, happy celebrations! Not only did we give you von Steuben, but also a healthy shot of Hessian mercenary blood into your gene pool!

Yes, indeed!  Thank God for the Hessians! ;D  My first ancestor stateside was reputedly a Hessian mercenary ;D

My wife seems to see the humor in that I evolved from a mercenary background ;)


Happy Independence Day!

May all of you have a wonderful, peaceful day!

I'm putting two basses up on Ebay, smoking some brats, salmon and ribs, and preparing my online course for a new group of students next week.

Just another quiet day.

Happy Independence Day everyone! I'm celebrating by spraying clear coats on my Epi GothBird overhaul. It might be too hot here to really do anything outside, but I'm enjoying my three day weekend!!

No KFC, no phone pole, and hopefully fully clad, we trust.

It's the fact that she's mounting her Lull that worries me... :o

 No KFC.....  ;)


 We're having Schnitzengrubens (pardon the Blazing Saddles ref.) in part to celebrate the Germans trouncing of the Argentinians in World Cup. As for things being mounted.......... ;D



Every now and then I try something normal  ;)

Happy Fourth!

It was three years ago that I last had KFC, during a fireworks display.  The cycle of how long between having KFC and forgetting how greasy and disgusting it is, and how I feel after eating it, seems to be at about every 8 years.
