The Netherworld

Been feeling that way lately. Some things you can control. Some things you can't. It's frustrating; believe me, I know. All I can say is that you have to embrace it every now and then. Well, some of you might get a little too cozy with it, but it can't be helped. The mouse on a wire wheel metaphor comes to mind. Go with it. If life gives you lemons, pick them up and throw them right back. Aim Low. No kindness here. No quarter given. Thus endeth the sermon.

As the daze going speeding by...

Jeez louize... I turn my back for what I thought was only a moment and February turned into March. Things & life have been, like, totally insane lately. Between working at both fire dept and writing for The Hockey Writers, I lost track of posting to this blog. For that, I apologize.


Being a fireman is, well, like being a fireman; although I haven't saved any catz yet this year. I tend to geet assigned to wheeling the Engine and Rescue trucks. It seems to be what I'm good at. And the music blog, Cheap Gas Music, is moving along with about one post a week. I wish that I had time to do more.


Hunter is coming out in April, Woo Hoo!!!!! I'm definately looking forward to that. All three of the kidz will be here this summer. Anyway, I'll try to be more diligent about keeping you updated from now on.

Blue Jackets/Red Wings Live Blog

Programming note

I'll be live blogging the game on Friday night as the Columbus Blue Jackets take on the Detroit Red Wings! I hope that you'll tune in!!!

Time to catch up...

We haven't spoke in a while, have we? Well, here's what's happenin' in my little world.

I got a gig writing for http://thehockeywriters.com and it's pretty cool. New title: Professional Sports Writer. I like it! I'll be posting columns there approx 2x a week.

Also trying to keep up with this blog as well as http://cheapgasmusic.wordpress.com; great music there! Be sure to check it out.

Work is as always keeping me busy. I'm definately looking forward to April (my sons spring break) as Hunter will be here and we'll probably go to North Carolina to visit my sister, who just moved there from AZ.

Jackson Pollock

On this day, January 28th, 1912, Jackson Pollock was born. Considered by many a major force in the abstract expressionist movement, he was my favorite painter and an inspiration. He died August 11th, 1956. He would have been 97 today.

Happy Birthday, Jackson.

Ciao.

New Gig...

I've got a new gig covering the Blue Jackets for http://thehockeywriters.com/ . Most of my Jackets posts will be there, with this site going back to being about whatever else I feel like writing about. Be sure to check out the new site.
