Say Cheese

Was helping some friends the other day when they broke down on the Mass Pike and discovered a few things…..
75 miles an hour is really, really, really fucking fast if you are standing on the side of the highway.
A tractor-trailer going by sounds a lot like the noise the empire’s TIE Fighters make in the first Star [...]

Nativity Naivity

Been a long time since I rock ‘ed and roll ‘ed

WOW!  What an unbelievable weekend.  Definitely put this old tired fat ass to the test.  Started Friday by working for 13 hours in a 128 degree kitchen….Swwwweeet.  Kicked major pizza ass and got through the day and night.
That led to Saturday…up early to VT to play Jew to J&D’s Pharaoh.  Unfortunately I knew our personal Moses dude wasn’t gonna show [...]

By the light of the pale white moon….

Never thought I’d be happy to be back from one of the most beautiful spots in the world….Cape Poge on Chappaquiddick…but I am.  I missed the Happy Valley.  Yes, the same Chappaquiddick made famous by the senior senator from massatwoshits who was responsible for the death of Mary Jo Kopechne by driving off a dirt road and into [...]
