One of the songs I learned in childhood but do not teach to my child piano and guitar students, nor in preschools, is "Do Your Ears Hang Low." Did you sing this one in childhood? As I remember it, it goes:

Funny that I've spent more time on this little bottom corner than on the rest of the speakers combined over the last few days.
The corner was missing, so I had to use wood filler and then replacement veneer to get it square. Now...

I had a slightly grumpy day today. Do you ever have slightly grumpy days?
When I looked at the box of stale Lucky Charms on my counter, and read "Hidden Dragon Reveals in Milk!" I was p*ssed off. The nerve of of those fat old...

A post by Amber reminded me of an old memory.
My Grannie's neighbor owned a small fish and tackle store down at the edge of the creek. And when their daughter Diane and I were about nine or ten, we'd climb up on the roof of the...

Nothing outrageous happening on this Friday morning. I will hike with my friend this afternoon. I don't have to work at Guitar Center, so I will probably be able to finish up the Pioneer speakers I have been working on. Maybe I'll...

Is this simply black mold? You are looking at a portion of my bathroom sink. Half of it looks like this. It was a week after I first moved in when I noticed a black muck was appearing in my bathroom sink. They should have replaced...

After this you might want the country music back! I’m rolling on with this list of songs that have “ain’t” in the title. A warning: next month will continue the atrocious grammar. But we’ll burn that English book...

Cooking crab Alfredo for dinner today and it's ready, just simmering on the stove. Not sure what to fix with it, maybe fried green beans.
Can't believe I'm out of carrots, but I think the Alfredo dish will still be good.

I usually wake up with the sun. My apartment faces East, and I keep my curtains open, so I wind up waking up between 6 and 7 AM, depending on the season.
Today I didn't stumble out of bed until 8:30 AM or so. I was up late last...

The photo has nothing to do with the discussion but is from the ‘pink ride’ which raised funds for cancer.

We live next to an area of woodland where there are some deer. Sadly most of the deer we see are the invasive Muntjac species. At least one of these strolls through our garden almost every afternoon.
So it’s quite exciting to see...

Gas prices are down here in the San Francisco Bay Area. But they are still ridiculously high compared to most places in the US.
