I’ve been meaning to tell you. I play guitar. I haven’t played in a long while not since I stopped being an alcoholic. I suck at it, but I keep playing.
I’ve already told you about buying a new fangled amp.
I’ve been trying to tell you that I want to get a new guitar, preferably, that Fender Jaguar, because I love playing or attempting to play surf music. Yes, that wet, wet reverb sound. With that guitar it and the effects from the new fangled amp it would be the wettest sound you would get.
Then I plugged the amp into my MBP and found out GarageBand can do all that and more. So, now I must check out how to use GarageBand. Today’s link may help in that.
I wonder if I should learn how to play the piano.
Wondering about PEDs in our sports and used by the players. I can’t really make heads or tails with it. I need to think more about it.
"Words mean things, and the power 'to regulate commerce…among the several states' does not mean the power to tell Americans what they must buy."Joseph F. Petros III, Redifining 'judicial activism' http://dailycaller.com/2011/02/07/redefining-judicial-activismUmm. Isn't that what that phrase means?
Today is addition day: 2+9=11! Just noticed. That isn't what today's link is about though.As yesterday's (or last night's) link took you to the game at which Ferris hooked school, hung out with Cameron and Sloane, masqueraded as Abe Froman, the sausage king of Chicago, and, most importantly, caught a ball at a Cubs-Braves game, today's link goes into the importance of why it was plain awesome of Ferris to catch a day game at Wrigley Field. (Man this sentence is a string of phrases that an editor could fix.)Baseball's 162 game schedule allows for a couple games a year to occur during a weekday afternoon. If you can do it, skip work or school and go down and support the local nine. It's a very fun way to spend an afternoon. Buy a hot dog. Drink a few beers. Heckle to opponent's left fielder. A bad day at a ball game is so much better than a day in a cubicle. I did it last year early in the miserable season of 2010. Watched the best game from the centerfield bleacher seats in Camden Yards as the Orioles took on the Mariners. Down several runs, the O's make the move with a Corey Patterson homer. Then they take the lead on Luke Scott's grand slam that barely cleared the wall. Alleged murderer, Alfredo Simon, called on to shut down the M's in the top of the ninth barely gets the save as the final out is recorded at the plate. That's baseball! And that was the most exciting 2010 game under the ill-fated Dave Trembley.http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/blog/big_league_stew/post/The-cultural-importance-of-Ferris-Bueller-s-Wrig?urn=mlb-181604&print=1
With the ending of football, it’s getting close to baseball season. Pretty soon catchers and pitchers report for Spring Training and then the whole squad. Then 3 weeks of meaningless games and then the big show. Opening day!
In the meantime, imagine that your a fan who has nothing better to do. You’re flipping channels between MLB Network and what else’s on. You happen upon Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and get to the Wrigley Field scene. You too would spend time trying to figure out the actual game that the movie used, right? Or is that too baseball-geeky?

Been trying to figure out what to blog about to keep up the string of blog posts for the year 2011. I’ll hit up the ol’ reliable: the Hawaiian Vacation of 2010.
Just looking at these pictures makes me want to go surfing. Face up to the challenge that being in the water with the pounding surf and fellow surfers. I feel like doing it. I feel like heading to the closest break and diving in with a new board. Going this summer. All summer long.
Playing a ukulele. Playing surf guitar. Riding the bike to the beach. All summer long.
If you don’t watch the anime I tell you to, then I’ll bring the anime here.
We went to the North Shore not to see the waves, but to get some grinds, food. We definitely had to get some shave ice at Matsumoto’s. It’s a serious foody place. Then we got some more eats at the various other places along the strip. Finally, ending up at the shrimp trucks that seem to have really pricey plate lunch.
All we seem to have done is eat.
CapitolSwell in ankle deep water. It was cooler out of the water than it was in it because of the trade winds. That’s why we soaked ourselves beneath the waves hours every day.
I’m slowly getting through posting pictures from the Hawaii set. This is a picture taken on Thanksgiving. How can you beat swimming in the Pacific? It’s better than eating turkey. Of course, we still did that that day.
