Books for Kids
Still on the search for children's books, that seem like something that comes from me...
From my heart.
Baby shower gift kinda thing, you know,
This shit is hard, man...

Cool 911 Bro
911 dudes are kinda like Corvette dudes, but with some creepy Teutonic undertones to them, instead of failed 70's porn actor undertones...
In my experience.
Anyway, here is a sweet 911 for all of the purist Porsche people.

Agent Orange
Somebody got me off on a AO trip, today...
And this, cover better than original. Yes.

Two Wheels Tuesday
This and some parks service roads into scrub covered desert...
I could use some of that action, these days.

Mama Tried
Mama Tried - Feb 22, 2014 from Allies & Company on Vimeo.
I usually don't post shit about shows I am not going to, or know somebody showing stuff...
But this sounds like a good one.

AMT
Haven't thought about this bunch in a long time, then notice they'll be here in March...
I might consider leaving the house for that.

Rawson
Haven't had an art post here, for some while...
Haven't gotten out to look at any, honestly.
Haven't thought about it much, really.
Anyway, I stumbled across this guys work the other day.
I like it a lot.
Hot buttons pushed, perhaps.
Language, appropriation, cultural commentary.
More over here...

Business is Good
A word from our sponsors...
Oh, who am I kidding?
There are no sponsors here.
There is nothing but a gaping void of banality.
Dumb posts and reposts. Meaningless sniveling and drivel.
Again and again, day after mind numbing day.
An endless slog of vapid internet nonsense, posted for an audience that doesn't exist.
So much fucking bullshit...
Where was I?
Right, beer.
Who needs one?

Scrum
So, you know I like words, language, linguistics and all that kind of stuff.
It fascinates me, the way it shifts and develops over time, for one thing.
The way new words enter into our lexicon particularly fascinates me.
At the same time, you may have read me ranting about what I am gonna call word-humping...
When there is a new word bandied and suddenly I spot it a hundred different places. As if writers or reporters are just racing to not be the last person to use the cool new word somebody else drug out to seem extra on the tip.
My last observation of this phenomenon was with food writers and unami. It seemed to be in every food article I read a month back, but no where three months ago, unless you were some sorta sushi addict.
This week, I see scrum every where. The goddamned red carpet at the Golden Globes was described as a scrum, in one article I glanced over. Even the entertainment writers are desperate to work the word scrum into their copy.
Seriously, is the average Walmart mom looking for deets on the Golden Globes down with the definition of fucking scrum?
Take a knee here, writer types.
Settle down on the scrum action, huh?
(In case you aren't familiar with what a scrum is, go here.)
Two Wheels Tuesday
Genuine old timey weirdness...
I wish more people got a bit further from the standard formula, when building stuff.

Them Shoes
Today's jam.
I guess this dude is in Nashville now too?
Makes me wonder if East Nashville is just wall to wall, 30-40 something, Ohio guys at this point...

Corvette Camper
Well, how do you beat that?
Maybe add an Elsinore on the back bumper...
Still, it would just be icing on the already magnificent cake.
Corvette-camper-man, I salute you.

'Sup Ohio Hot Shoes
Lost footage of the nationals, from some 40 odd years ago...
Home town kinda action, even. sorta.
Go ahead and clear your schedule and hold the calls for about an hour, 'cause this is gold.

Dakar?
I am not even sure why Dakar is still in the fucking name...
The race is now on a completely different continent, gosh darn it.
Anyway, it is that time a year, big rally race time.
You can have your bowl games named after fatty foods, I am more into this.
Unfortunately, coverage of the Paris-(not)Dakar is scant.
The whole premise is straight crazy, even though they have moved the course out of active war zones.
Perhaps that is why I appreciate it...

Mourvedre Monday
Yeah, so it is cold here...
I am thinking about warmer things, for contrast.
For some reason the mourvedre is on my mind.
Fun grape.
Sorta lesser known maybe?
Here are some details, if you want some...
