My memory of the 80′s…

June 12th, 2008

… consists of a few things. 

-I lived in Ohio 

-Michael Jackson (was brilliant, but still strange)

-My Cincinnati Reds were not good… and Pete Rose did something bad.

-My Cincinnati Bengals were winning

-I thought I was going to play baseball for a living when I grew up
-Alf

-My Big Wheel (mine didn’t have streamers)

Baby J is on the way

June 10th, 2008

Many of you know, but most of you probably don’t… Jennifer and I are having our first child. She has been doing great! There is no way I could possibly imagine enduring this 9 month process (forget the delivery process) like my wife or you other strong brave women. No shame in my game… I would be a complete pansy.  

She has a countdown on her site… YES my lovely smart sassy wife has a blog site.

  

This post is a part of Positive Post Tuesday.

2008 Bonnaroo lineup (partial)

June 9th, 2008

Here are some notable performers at this year’s Bonnaroo music and arts festival…

Pearl Jam, Metallica(never seen them, so would probably be fun), Jack Johnson, Widespread Panic, Kanye West, Chris Rock, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss featuring T Bone Burnett, Phil Lesh & Friends, My Morning Jacket, The Raconteurs, Willie Nelson, Death Cab for Cutie, B.B. King, Sigur Rós(yes please!), Ben Folds(for about 15 mins, then I would be bored), O.A.R., M.I.A., Iron & Wine(for about 10 mins), Stephen Marley, Robert Randolph’s Revival, Rilo Kiley, The Disco Biscuits, Solomon Burke, Chali 2na of Jurassic 5, Abigail Washburn, Béla Fleck, Janeane Garofalo(if she is still funny), Jakob Dylan (why not), and Rogue Wave

I won’t be going, but I am always interested in seeing who is going to be there in the middle of no-where with a bunch of hippies and crazy people. (please take no offense if you are going or have gone in the past… I’m just not that crazy… so maybe I’m getting old?)

In bold are those that I would be interested in.

June 4th, 2008

These cities were ranked the top 10 cities to live in the U.S. (says CityRating.com)… I put my thought next to each since I have spent time in each of them.

Houston, TX (no way, have you been there?) 

Austin, TX (agree. a great city)

San Diego, CA (agree. amazing)

New York, NY (agree. of course)

Denver, CO (agree. wow)

Charlotte, NC (nope. haha)

Los Angeles, CA (agree. if you can get past the “plastics”)

Seattle, WA (agree. yes please, but hold the rain)

Atlanta, GA (agree. traffic is nuts, but they now have H&M)

Chicago, IL (agree. maybe 1/2 of the year)
