Thanks, Denver and San Fran

Our first trip of the year was a pleasure. Not because of the 12-hour travel days. Not because we missed loading 500 pounds of crap in and out of a Chrysler Town & Country. And certainly not due to a trip to a kitschy Mexican theme restaurant in Denver whose main attractions seem to be […]

Podcast Sometime Tomorrow

Ach, such a weekend…too much to recap right now; there were some flight delays (Storm had two of them, ick), but we’re finally home again for a few days. But first, sleep recharge the batteries. Tomorrow, we’ll recap the weekend here and record a podcast. Then maybe we’ll get some lunch or something. So thanks […]

If You Can’t Come See *Us* Perform…

Some of you may remember that we used to be in an a cappella group called Da Vinci’s Notebook. And that said a cappella group had a member named Bernie Muller-Thym. And that said Bernie Muller-Thym is a crazy, nutzoid, sick-talented musician. Well, said crazy, nutzoid, sick-talented musician is performing in a band next weekend […]
