Tom Waits Latest Album Rocks

22 06 2008

Although its been out for two years I’m just now obsessing over this latest work of Tom’s. I have to do that with anything in order to absorb it properly. Those of you that know me understand… maybe.

Simply put… if you don’t enjoy this album, your music taste is shallow and sucks. Very eclectic and musical. Tom Waits is an unsung musical genius that’s been around far longer than many other lesser performers.

I always like his latest work it seems. That’s okay, I’m always ready that way.

Check this out.





Making progress

Slowly but surly we’re knocking out this house painting. Want to come over and help do trip. I hate doing trim. It takes way too long.

We borrowed my mother-in-law’s sprayer… that is a God send. I can rock out a whole side of the house in about half an hour. The front will take longer. Too many angles and it pitches.

We’re going to get black shutters, so don’t worry, something will be going back up. :)





River Fest

Emily and I enjoyed the Smokey Hill River Festival on Saturday. There was lots of great food, music and art. I enjoyed a gyro and dippin-dots. I always enjoy seeing new art, especially the quality that’s at the fest. Check out the photos.
