How Long???

I need to start writing again. I'm just sayin'.

An Actual Update

Don't get excited. I made a video.


Unboxing the Monster: David Lynch Coffee from Gary O'Brien on Vimeo.

Justifying My Domain Registration

Gotta use the website periodically.



Merry Christmas to all the drunkards, junkies, half-wits, freaks, morons, outsiders and hobos.

Happy Birthday

For little Gert. Who's not so little anymore. She's seven today.

There are few songs that make me think of Gert more than this. It's an awful video, but every time I hear it I get nostalgic and all teary.

The Stephen Malkmus School of Dance

And I was there.

Yes, you too can dance like Stephen Malkmus. Learn the pigeon toe jump! The stiff-legged wobble! The arm twitch! The backwards wiggle-walk! The off-rhythm, arms-in-the-air-but-still-kind-of-care! The droop-armed run in place! The squat and nod! And, for a limited time, the down-low/up-high hand wipe.

(Side note: great show. Loud, rocking and weird.)

On the Road Again

Finally got to edit some of the video from our summer vacation. Will make others soon. Here's a montage (yes montage, I like them) of us traveling from home to the cabin.

Not Posting

I know, not posting. Just do not have time to sit down and write.

But this...this is important. You see, we blocked out July 25th through August 1st as our vacation. The plan is, no matter where we go, to be driving there on the 25th.

I can't do it now. Mont Ventoux on the penultimate stage! There is no possible way I can miss that. That may very well decide the tour on a mountain top finish. On the freaking Ventoux.

Hope the kids understand...
