I dunno, some planet, I think. Supposed to be good for you...

I've been thinking too much again...

It's bad for me.

 fucking me up...

This is just fucking awesome---

Italian Police cook dinner for an old couple found crying in their apartment!
I had been upset that my vow of not focusing on
the world as it rots around us would limit what I
could discuss on this blog--
I couldn't force myself to just put up cute doggie pictures..

like so many, many other blogs do---
luckily for me there really is goodness and decent
people out there, like these Italian Policemen,
doing decent things!

Soooo... according to this study,
If I read a book while I smoke...

The two cancel each other out--???

for a longer life readers die later study finds

Russia's entire paralympic team has been banned
for competition in 2016 for performance enhancing drug doping?
Really?
The fucking paralympic team???

How low can you go?

On DVD
--years and years to catch up on---

I am currently awaiting replacement electronic parts for the Esquire guitar build---
once the parts arrive, I will attempt the build again?
Hope i don't screw the pooch again?

I have written my city code enforcement department to determine if
a permit is required for busking in my city?
Apparently this was the first request such as this
they have ever received and advised they would
get back with me?

I am still teaching guitar..

  and building a playlist
for possible gigging--
somewhere/sometime???
Maybe????

I have been working on organizing my practice sessions,
creating a system.
Attempting to obtain the greatest results while practicing..

I have been starting my sessions with scales on the guitar
as a warm-up process.
Next comes developing/working out new material.
Then--practice previously developed material
and crunching completely through my playlist.
Ending with---bass practice.

write in an insane number of moleskine notebooks every day?

I keep a notebook on each long term project--

and individual smaller moleskine's for

a daily journal--

 a to-do notebook--

one for important shit to remember--

One for Pocket-Rocket mileage and service requirements

another for music idea's--

I scribble in them all the time?
When full, I label them and then i file them
away in a huge box hidden in the closet...

I often wonder what a psychological analysis--- 

of this notebook habit of mine would reveal?

I started on the 1962 Jaguar Mk. II kit by Tamiya.

The engine is constructed and all parts requiring
body color are painted..

I had originally planned on making a copy of Inspector Morse's Jaguar.
On further consideration I decided to build this kit the
way I want this Jaguar to exist.
After all,
 that's the purpose of this particular art-form.
