Chris had a cool post about famous people he’s met. So I thought I’d steal the idea and post something about some of the famous peeps I’ve met in my travels. Here are my top 3 (in no order): – President Jimmy Carter (This was awesome, because I met him at Disney World. I had just gotten out of the Phil-har-magic show and I was walking over to the restroom and a buddy of mine spotted him. I walked up to him and asked if I could take a picture with him. He must have had 10 Secret Service guys … Read More
You Can’t Stop This Train!
John Mayer – January 26 @ the BankUnited Center at UM. I got my tickets (Thanks Michelle). Inside the 1st 20 rows! No Sheryl Crow, so JM will play a solid 2 hours without interruption! That’s what I’m talking about!

Post Halloween Feed-back
I am so going to need a healthy dose of Pepto-Bismol tonight after the insanity that was Halloween in my neighborhood! My neighbors didn’t disappoint. People were out in full force and they went all out. Brach’s candy was like the creatures that lived in the woods in “The Village”. It was “They who’s name is never to be mentioned”. The candy dispensing was off the hook! Some people were giving out whole candy bars! Not the mini size, not the bite size… whole candy bars. It was glorious! I introduced my niece Sarah to the joy of mixing Pixie … Read More
Eye, Eye, Captain!
I can barely type so please forgive any spelling errors. I had to go to the doctor today because my eye has been bothering me since last week. So I found out that I had Iritis (sp?)That means the iris has an infection. So this means I have all these eye drops I’ve got to put in my right eye, which is rendering me pretty much useless. The doctor said I won’t be able to read for a few days until the infection goes away because the medicine is making me see double. I also had to cancel a speaking … Read More

Rockin’ My World…
I picked up the bass at 15, so music is a huge part my life. Because of that, lyrics to songs tend to get in head and work me during different seasons of my life. They create a soundtrack to every stage of my life. Here are some of the lyrics that are speaking to me now: “I’m 33 for a moment, still the man, but you see I’m a they…A kid on the way…A family on my mind.” – (100 Years by Five for Fighting) “Is there anyone who ever remembers changing their mind from the paint on a … Read More
October 27th in the Baseball Universe
Congratulations to the St. Louis Cardinals who shocked the world by beating the Detroit Tigers in 5 games. Almost everyone I knew (including me) thought the Tigers would make quick work of the Cards. But as is the saying, “Pitching wins in October.” If you don’t pitch, you go home. But as far as I’m concerned, October 27th will only be remembered for 1 reason: The 2004 Red Sox. I have the words of announcer Joe Buck burned into my heart: “Back to Foulke. Red Sox fans have longed to hear it: The Boston Red sox are World Champions!” Here’s … Read More
“We are the World”… Metal Style!
Does anyone remember this? My buddy Bill sent me this (I mention his name, so that if anyone gets mad they knew where to direct their anger). Highlights for me: Rare appearance my Adrian Smith and Dave Murray from Iron Maiden. Geoff Tate from Queensryche. George Lynch from Dokken. Ronnie James Dio belting out some vocals. And don’t forget, The Nuge. I’d like to go on record and say that I loved this song and thought is was way better than We are the World (Although I think Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen were awesome). check it out…
