One rider’s sporadic thoughts on motorcycling and whatever else life throws at him.
8:00 PM Sunday night. Although I didn’t seem to paint as many hours as I did yesterday, greater progress was made. Now that I have the eyes and mouth practically done, the rest will go very fast. I should have it almost done by Thursday, if I work some every evening.
It’s 7PM Saturday, and I’m exhausted in a real good way. My eyes and knees/feet won’t take more than an hour or so of working on the painting at a time, and its getting kind of tedious at this point, so here’s my progress at the end of Saturday….I’d hoped to be farther along, but [...]
I can’t believe this guy calls himself, “Mr. Fudge”.
Before I began my latest career, teaching, in 1999, I had worked in the picture framing business for 15 years. I learned it from scratch working with a company called Frameland, which was a multi storefront operation back in the 80’s. I started there in 1984. There may still be some “Frameland”s around Atlanta. I haven’t checked in [...]
Well, “preplanning” as they call it, is over and the little kiddies return for the school year this coming Monday. I was happy to get my art room back and spent the greater part of my last 3 days there getting the room decorated and supplies in order for the first few weeks of school. [...]
It’s high summer. I can’t really ride my bike right now. Its promised to another. My new love won’t be here until late August. I have to go back to work Wednesday…3 days’ pay poorer…because of the state educational budget shortfall…teachers are required to take 3 furlough days without pay. Luckily I think they are [...]
Last weekend I went up to the big BMW MOA national rally in Johnson City, TN. Errr, Gray, TN to be more precise. Thats really about all I have to say about it. In driving my truck and hauling a bike up there for a buddy, I pretty much doomed myself to “rally boredom” most [...]
Well, I arrived in one piece after a long day of flying on Saturday. The connecting flight from Atlanta was on a smaller Airbus with US Airways and it took me to Philadelphia pretty fast.
The flight from Philly to LAX was another story. It was supposedly a more comfy seat but by the time it [...]
Next week I have the whole week off for our annual Fall Break. Never heard of it? That’s because there’s not another school district in the country that does it. Actually I may be wrong on that statement. I haven’t investigated to find out, nor will I waste my time doing it. I just think [...]
Dang it! I really regret not stopping to see them on my visits through there in the past.
