I Have A Look-A-Like, again

November 13th, 2008 by aaron

Last year it was Steve Perry of Journey. Before that it was Art Alexakis of Everclear.

It never fails, I’ve got a parallel face out there.  This time, and I heard just the other night from a new acquaintance…

Rob Bell

Some go as far as to say that I sound like him…

Think I need that youthful, bleached, slicked up hair to complete this mug. Not going to happen, but on a positive note, I did enjoy his DVD Everything is Spiritual. Intelligent man to say the least.

Anyone for a Nooma?

Cash by Johnny Cash

I’m not even half way through the book yet. I’m taking my sweet time..

Funny thing is I’ve been meaning to read this book ever since I heard Rob Gordon mention it in High Fidelty. I normally wouldn’t take a direct recommendation from a movie, but we’re talking about John Cusack here. Plus, this book has to be some sense of the word ‘classic’.

Walk The Line may have suggested us a a great idea of his story, but while reading this I seem to think he is talking with me over a large cup of coffee. I can see everything he’s talking about. And, you know, Hollywood’s not involved.

A good follow-up. Many great and profound stories. And, what a transparent guy.

Politics Schmolitics

September 28th, 2008 by aaron

I can’t say that I’m really stoked on either of our candidates this time around. Not with all the jargon I heard from this last debate. I almost rather hear a couple argue next door to me in my neighborhood…almost.

I can say that about this time of the campaign season, I begin hearing a line from Sting in my head.

Politicians…

“…They all seem like game show hosts to me”.

Well there are many topics to discuss of course, but I’ll mention that it surprises me when one can’t answer a simple question directly.

Pay-grade when speaking of a human right? really? Thats just depressing.

I’m On Lockdown

September 20th, 2008 by aaron

Waiting for Nashville to be supplied more gasoline

I arrived home last night after passing six gas stations without any fuel available. With only 1/8 of a tank left, I’ve deemed myself on lockdown until Monday when it seems there will be a large supply coming, states FOX news. I can only hope.

Meanwhile, the refrigerator was scarce of food. And all this to say…

I made a little pasta primavera. Amazing what a little olive oil, Italian seasoning, broccoli and mushrooms will do for pasta. Grandma Tosti will be proud to know….

Bring Back The Rhythm

My [drum only] blog has begun.

I wanted to have a space to talk specifically drums, to leave this blog for more open “what-have-you”. So if you are into drum gear, modern drumming, opinions, and some of my drumming background visit my drum blog.
