Came home today to find that the missus had ordered this shirt for me; She knows me so well. I do appreciate the fact that the tag is valid XHTML too.

p.s. If you find this shirt funny, you just might be a redneck geek.

Honey Ginger Yellowfin Tataki

This was my breakfast today. Seared Yellowfin marinated in my own Honey Ginger sauce. I also made Dark Chocolate Mousse and Thai Red Curry today, but by the time I was finished making them, I just wanted to eat the darned things…

My Six Word Memoir Was Published

Far too long ago to remember, I submitted an entry to SMITH magazine’s Six Word Memoirs. The other day I received a package containing this book. If you happen to come across it in your travels, I urge you to check out page 97….

That gig (along with stellar support by Embrace and Audioweb, sniff), was one of the best days of my life.

I miss being 16 years old. Music was so much better then, or so it seems….
