Merry Christmas

I hope everyone had a Great Christmas. I also hope everyone received all the gifts they were asking for, I especially enjoyed all the gifts I received including the new cowboy outfit, Now I can really hit the bars and score some cool chicks...Next year I'm asking for an Indian costume,

43 years ago..........

Here is a survey from the Detroit Radio Station WKNR. Most stations, at that time tended to play pretty much the same songs. Music sure has changed over the years. In fact, I don't think they even have surveys/charts anymore. With the exception of the Billboard or Itunes National charts

Christmas Sock Problems !!!!!!!!!!!!

A few years ago MJ upgraded the Christmas Sock's. Notice in the picture there are no names on any of the socks...No way to identify who's sock is who's. In Fact, Two socks are exactly the same. This causes a major problem for me. The only way to tell which is which is to see whats inside but then I run the risk of seeing whats in mine. I guess I'll just have to wait and see when the socks are handed out, then put my stuff in. Seems like a lotta work......Oh by the way I used the spell check on this post to check a word. I spelled it differently three times and all three times it said there were no spelling mistakes.............Why does my life seem so hard ????

Vacation .....Baby

Well, I started vacation Tuesday. One of my projects is finish a picture of the old Bond Street neighborhood. I took a photo on my last visit. I also plan to relax as well. Rob came home for the holidays on Saturday working his way up from Jacksonville to Nashville stopping off in Chicago and finally arriving in Grand Rapids. In fact Rob, Kellie and I hit Spectrum Lanes for our annual bowling bash. I started out with a sizzling 259 game but limped in with a three game total of 582 Kellie crashed the hundred pin barrier all three games with 122, 123 and 103. Kellie decided to quit and Rob and I bowled three more, The first game Rob & I tied at 200 a piece. The next game I shot 203 not bad, but Rob demolished me with a 233. Thirty pins down going into the last game ......could the old man do it. Robs arthritic fingers finally gave out and I beat him 220 to .....well, I'm not sure...Anyway, a wins a win, for the day, I averaged one pin short of 201. Not too bad for bowling once or twice a year. I think everyone was happy with their scores. Could a league be in my future.........I doubt it.

Art Work


Many people have been asking me if I am still drawing. Well, up until a couple months ago I hadn't done too much. But a friend of Rob's asked if I could draw a picture of him and his girlfriend ...He wanted to give it to her for her 21st birthday. So, I said I'd give it a shot. no guarantee's and he better have another gift ready just in case. Anyway, he took a look at it when it was nearing completion and seemed to like it. I guess his girl friend did too. The cool thing is he gave me 65.00 and a six pack ....So now, I'm a professional artist.... My price just went up.. Oh,By the way, the picture on the blog is not his girlfriend just something I'm messing around with.....

Final Preparations

Its 1:00 and house is clean,the snacks and treats are done, the new shower head installed. I think its time to relax. Hopefully it won't snow as the snowblower will not run in either the off or the on position. I wonder if this is another frozen version of the Water Curse
