Bon Fire

Scary snow skulls, burning palates, austrian named manfred with pine liquor snow, caves and keg beer. Now that's a winter country party.

I and I will be there

the President himself will be in town debating the turntables for one night only. Don't miss your chance to drop bass with the executive branch.

YES!

finally it snowed. a little here and a little there the past two weeks was just enough to make yesterdays 10" totally freakin' awesome. light, no rocks and no scraping bottom. god i love it.

Really, the bluberries are gone.

This damn tree

I love this damn tree. Well, here in Oregon it's a snag. It has such cool lines and I have taken so many pictures of it through the years but have never liked a single photo. Who would have guessed the tangled roots would be the first picture I like of it?

Trees Up

Timeless

I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down,
Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town,
I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime,
But is there because he's a victim of the times.

I wear the black for those who never read,
Or listened to the words that Jesus said,
About the road to happiness through love and charity,
Why, you'd think He's talking straight to you and me.

Well, we're doin' mighty fine, I do suppose,
In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes,
But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back,
Up front there ought 'a be a Man In Black.
