Sorry Carnival Cruise Lines....

Sorry Carnival, I think this was a once in a lifetime. If you grow a forest with hiking trails and a beach on one of your ships, let me know. Thanks.

Drumming hall of fame: Howie Wyeth

2012-01-05T13:15:00.002-05:00

See the wiki link for full details but I know his work from the approximately 7349 times I have listened to Bob Dylans "Desire". Was listening to that very album today and realized that some of my favorite drumming was on that record and I had no idea who it was. Really wonderful feel to his playing that I have often referred to for inspiration in my own playing.

R.I.P. and thank you Howie.

Kristi Webers Sebadoh Tattoo!!!!

2011-12-09T16:34:00.001-05:00

Wow, look at this one! My heart is bursting from these tattoos.
I was going to say something about not bragging, but I guess I am when I point out that this is my design!!!! So proud!

At Sixes and Sevens Tattoo!!!!!

2011-12-09T13:46:00.001-05:00

Wow. I cannot believe that this is real. I do not have any tattoos, but I realize the depth of connection it must take to do this must be deep. Honestly, I cannot think of a more profoundly humbling statement of allegiance and personal connection / public declaration of importance.
I am really blown away.

Plus, It looks really BAD-ASS!!!!

This is the wrist of a gentleman named Chris Watt...@deathtomeerkats on Twitter if you want to tell him how awesome he is.

Hammock UQ / Cold butt!

2011-11-22T12:18:00.001-05:00

(Its the black thing)

Hammocks are awesome for the most part. One of several drawbacks, other than the fact that the rules for hanging them in campgrounds, and the public perception of how harmful they might be to trees might often prevent you from hanging one.... is the fact that your ass is swinging in the breeze, literally. Hammock material is thin, and your ass gets cold on even summer nights... The two solutions to this seem to be either to put a foam pad underneath you, or to get an underquilt.

Underquilts are expensive, and pads slide around at night.... I bought a used underquilt which is coming today, and even used was embarrassingly expensive.

Going to Louisville this week, so hoping to try it out in my mother in law's backyard... see if it works in 30-50 degree weather. I certainly hope so...

Change your "Display Density" settings in the new Gmail...

2011-11-15T11:54:00.001-05:00

While checking my gmail account this AM, I clicked on some thing that I thought was going to show me the "upcoming new look" of gmail, but it actually switched me to it permanently... I like some things about it, but REALLY didnt like the (larger) height of the rows in the inbox... I could see about 1/2 the amount of messages per screen. BIG AND GOOFY.

Turns out you can change this thru the "Display Density" settings, which are available by clicking the "gear" in the upper right hand corner:

And select a size from the drop down list:

By default the new layout is set to "comfortable which looks like this:

And changing it to compact makes it look alot more like the old layout:
(more inbox rows displayed!!)
