Congratulations Nurk!

[Question of the day 12/25/12]

Some clothes, slippers, a movie, and this cool little 2-watt amp from Fender called 'Greta" that looks like a vintage table top radio. It has outputs to go to an external speaker, and can function as a tube pre-amp to go to another amp. It also has an aux input for an iPod or other MP3 player. I think Santa may have scored a $99 Black Friday deal on this.

[Question of the day 12/24/12]

Yeah, any of the joke or novelty songs would qualify. But also, I never liked that duet between David Bowie and Bing Crosby. I remember seeing it live and thinking it was embarrassing.

[Question of the day 12/23/12]

Elvis - "Blue Christmas", and Bobby Helms - "Jingle Bell Rock" are 2 of them. Brenda Lee - Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree" is another great classic.

[Poll of the day 12/22/12]

Just whatever is on the radio. I have a bunch of Christmas music, but I haven't been playing it at home.

[Question of the day 12/22/12]

It means I'd better go ahead and borrow a bunch of folding tables and chairs from work. We're having 28 for dinner at our house on Christmas Eve.

[My New Grandson]

Congratulations Susan!

[Macca 12/12/12]

Thanks for the link. My DVR missed that performance because they ran so late. I liked the new song better than when they played it on SNL.

[Question of the day 12/16/12]

I would trade everything I know on guitar to be proficient on piano.

[Poll of the day 12/16/12]

I didn't play on my High School teams, but I always played rec league basketball and baseball. Also played a lot of hockey during high school.

[Poll of the day 12/15/12]

I'm going out with my daughter tomorrow to (hopefully) finish up.

[Question of the Day 12/13/2012]

We always watch at least some of the 24 hour marathon of "A Christmas Story".

[It was 32 years ago today]

It still sickens me how we lost John. He had so much more for us. "Double Fantasy" is my favorite of John's solo albums. I know I'm in the minority there, but I play that record much more often than any other of his. I even like the Yoko songs on that record.

[Question of The Day - 12/5/12]

Well let me be the first to answer No! :-)

[Poll of the day 12/3/12]

My wife and I each have a vehicle, and we have a 3rd one that we're selling to our daughter.

[Question of the day 12/3/12]

In the 40's, cloudy and rainy for the foreseeable future.

[Are 1080P HD tv's on the way out?]

I asked the video guys at Costco if they had any 4k TV's and they just said "what's that"? Not that I'd buy one, but I do want to see one.

[Poll of the day 12/2/12]

Yes. We're big milk drinkers. When all the kids were still here, we'd go through nearly a gallon a day.

[Question of the day 12/2/12]

I like several that have been mentioned, but also "Treme" and "Boardwalk Empire" are really good. On "regular" TV, "Sons of Anarchy".

[Poll of the day 12/1/12]

Not yet, but soon.

[Question of the Day 11/30/2012]

Quit smoking 4 years ago. Best decision I ever made for my health and the health of those around me. Not to mention the crazy money it costs. Gained the 20 pounds required by law. Now I need to jettison that weight back.

[Question of the day 11/28/12]

The Beatles, but since they broke up a while back I'll go with Neil Young & Crazy Horse.

[Poll of the day 11/27/12]

I used to have a big bunch of them, but most are gone now. I still have a few.

[Question of the day 11/27/12]

Most of them annoy me. I try not to watch live television. I record almost everything and then zip through the commercials.

[Question of the day 11/26/12]

Back to work! And I'm kind of excited about it since it's been several weeks now. Turns out I'll make a crappy retiree. It was boring and kind of depressing to be stuck at home. I feel so much better going back to work! (Did I really just say that?)
