“Rusty Wreck”? You Should Have Seen My Rusty Wreck…

I’m hyper-sensitive to this video for some reason…being a mailman, and all. Look where the steering wheel is! It’s all wrong! It doesn’t look safe to drive on that side of the car! I had a 67 Beetle that sat … Continue reading

Amateur? Not Anymore….

The title of this one is “Amateur Builder Turns Schoolbus Into GORGEOUS Tiny House: 18 Month Timelapse”. Looks like a pro to me. I love to watch videos like this because it reminds me that experience is a good teacher…and, … Continue reading

Leo Kottke!!

Leo. Man, I haven’t seen him for a while. He plays guitar crazy good. Crazy good. And…he’s just as funny as he used to be. The monkey doesn’t fall far from the tree, for sure. … Continue reading
