Usually have a beverage in my hand and a song in my head.
Diehard fan had an arbitrary wish: To see the Twins conclude the season with a record no worse than ten games under five-hundred. They beat it; with today's win they end at 77-85. There's a solid core of young players and decent starting pitching that I believe will lead to better times ahead.

Things I learned as a teenager from hair metal:
*It's alright to come a little closer.
*It's alright to start a little fire ("fie-yah").
*She's going to drive you crazy.
*She's going to drive you insane.
That's about it.

I had the opportunity this summer to work on two instruments belonging to two different old friends. This guitar and this bass are--in my mind--legendary. I associate each with the massive amount of playing their respective owners put on them, some of which I was witness to. The Telecaster was...

I'm the guy who watches educational TV to wind down at night. Last night I watched this, and if you are at all curious about the modern rise of the Alpha Male--or better yet, if you consider yourself to be one--I highly recommend watching.

A FORCE. As a young person I had no idea who Gloria Steinem was, and I didn't really care. That was my white, male privilege. As an adult I came to learn about and appreciate her massive role in the second-wave feminism movement. Privileged men like me can help continue that push by...

Kid sister wanted a pink guitar for her best friend's kid. I found this Daisy Rock Rock Candy on Marketplace. (I once owned the identical model.) They're not bad!

Flower guitar that belongs to a new student. It came from the She Rock She Rock gear sale. Years ago I had a young student with the butterfly version.

The one guy in the band without a beard was named Beard. My favorite part of the 2019 ZZ Top documentary was near the end--when they collected themselves and started jamming. They all quickly slipped into music mode, and it was a totally felt thing. Great band. R.I.P. Frank Beard. #FrankBeard

There's a term which has become more relevant than ever: follow the money. Today I voted for my old friend Peggy Flanagan in Minnesota's primary for U.S. Senate. Even if she wasn't my friend I would've voted for Peggy because our politics align overwhelmingly. Her specific primary race has become...

Final coat of paint on the new kitchen cabinet doors. Guitar repairs sitting around. Thankfully, I didn't paint the guitars by mistake.
