Google's homepage is pretty cool today! https://www.google.com/

Here's Adam Savage at Third Man Records!

Audition At RCA Here's a great article about the filming of this real audition and what became of the demo and the artists involved. It's great to see the workings of what happened in the studio recording these tunes. http://www.jazzwax.com/2017/07/complete-audition-at-rca.html

Happy Birthday Tom!

Reminds me,.. I had three twins vanilla bean ice cream sandwich for the first time last week. I've promised myself to have one every month for the rest of my life. Sinful!

I photograph like an old homeless guy looking for a handout (gray shirt/hands in pockets) I shudder every time I catch a glimpse of me! Since I hit 60, I just don't give a shit?

Bought mine to bring old gear's power supplies up slowly but I also use it as a dimmer for stuff like work lights and fans. It's great for turning a fan down so the noise is not noticeable. Now, about that refrigerator?

Yikes! Mine can't compete with yours but I do like a knob you can operate with one hand!

A truely great American artist! I'll always remember him with Jessica Lange as they ruled a little Camelot in Santa Fe. https://www.artsy.net/artwork/bruce-weber-sam-shepard-and-jessica-lange-santa-fe-new-mexico

Happy Birthday Todd! Have a great day.

Happy Birthday!

RIP June Foray! I never knew her name till today but I loved her work all my life! Seeing such an outpouring from the community is all I really needed to know.

Happy Birthday Antonio! I aways look forward to seeing your posts my friend. Enjoy the day!

Congrats Mr and Mrs Sawyers!

Holy creakin' bass cabinets! The small PMCs have pretty damn good bass but those... Are those the monitors that you place upside down to get the tweeters at the right level Dusty?

Awesome! Now,.. Get to work! (I should talk????) BTW Where did you get the drawer hardware for your keys?

Ozark on Netflix. With Jason Bateman and Laura Linney who are excellent but maybe the younger co-stars of this crime drama are stealing the show. Loving it so far.

I love the idea of reusing lumber or furniture for an audio desk. It's always there to remind me that character is important. I design my monitor supports to be lower than I need. Easier to adjust up than down (and I aways dream that bigger monitors are just around the corner).

I'm as big a bleeding heart liberal as they come (some socialist tendencies even) but I can't help but respect and even love McCain! They don't make em like that anymore. Get well soon god damnit!

I've been "sampling" the streaming services since the Airbnb I'm at for 2 months doesn't have a tv. The dsl connection is terrible so I'm getting a good taste of what it's like with the worst connection possible ( how about 12.82Mbps down and .75 up for stone age!). So far, I've just done the free week of Sling blue and now I'm on the $35 plan with DirectTV Now. DirectTV Now is very good so far. Even though they don't have the kind of backlog that's good for binger's like me, the networks allow you to watch their libraries by logging in as a DirectTV Now member. Tomorrow I'll start checking out Vue. BTW, I made the mistake of buying a new piano sample library since it was on sale. The download was about 20G. Thank god the company has a nice download manager since the download got interrupted 3 times.

I second Grahame's suggestions and also loved "Man in the High Tower". I discontinued Netflix for 6 months and didn't miss it a bit while I watched a lot of Amazon programming.

Okay Mike,.. Now I'm hungry!

W-O-W!

Happy Birthday Jose! Enjoy!

RIP Martin Landau! Loved that guy! Maybe my favorite was his role in Tucker!
