  • Blogging 101 | Post 1 – Who I Am and Why I’m Here

    OK. So here’s the deal – I screwed the pooch, dropped the ball, missed the boat, fell off the wagon. Pick a cliche, any cliche, and it applies.

  • The Avett Brothers Perform “Morning Song”

    “Hurt so bad……….You don’t come around here anymore….. Worse than that……….. Nothing’s really helping I’ve been thinking ’bout drinking again” Twenty-one words, that’s all, just twenty-one; words that rank easily in the top one hundred song openings of all time.
