There’s no substitute for cubic inches, and although Carroll Shelby didn’t coin that phrase, he sure believes in it. He did back in the day when he was shoehorning Ford V8s into ACs and Sunbeams, and literally making Ford’s Mustang live up to its pony car name. Ol’ Shel is at it again, and his latest [...]

Not a week goes by that I don't think about how much that computer fast I did back on October has benefited me. Going an entire week without the "noise" of the internet gave me the space I needed to take a good look at where I was in my life, think and pray more, reorganize my days to put my computer-related activities in their proper places, and recognize the ways that my computer (the internet...

Best Music of 2009 (Free subscription) | 01/29/2010
I have no familiarity with Chickenfoot's music. This track reminds me of late 70's hair-band rock, such as Aerosmith or Foghat. *Let's party* message clear and well sung. "Don't forget to bring your rockin' shoes / grab a toothbrush, soap, and a comb / And you can pick up a little taste - get your favorite buzz on / And you can leave the rest at home" Very good funky rhythm electric guitar...

One of my favorite discoveries of 2009 is Green Monkey Records, a small local label that first started putting out rock music in Seattle when Nirvana was just a gleam in Kurt Cobain’s eye (or something like that), and managed to get out of the business just before they could have actually made any money. [...]

Rock Chick had her feet zapped today by a lazer, from my understanding they need to do some more work because the lazer was not up to scratch. I hope she heals fast and is back on her feet in no time. However, I'll be finding out shortly as I'm due to be in Scotland in the next few days, the end of the week to be more precise. Sparkling texted me before the lazer treatment and said if she could of...

This weekend I watched the movie Avatar. At first I was a bit disappointed by the 3D-effects. I had to think back at the late sixties and early seventies, when as a kid I used Viewmaster to watch 3D pictures which represented some movie-like narrative. But then I got captivated by the beauty of the images and by the striking similarities with my avatar-life in Second Life. Avatars in the movie as in...

Lost in all the news of Soundgarden reuniting is the fact that Portland's Dharma Bums are also getting back together. It's been brewing for some time, as the members have fairly recently shared the stage at one of Jeremy Wilson's Mastan Music events. The only reunion show scheduled is in Portland -- February 20th at the Crystal Ballroom, with Young Fresh Fellows opening! Maybe if things go well, they'll...

I was cruising around ebay one night last week and spotted this new lug set : $50 + $14 for shipping? Not so bad I figure. Esp since it's got the fast back thing going on. Here's another quick pic with some different angles: They totally seem nice and should work fine for a first time fuck around build. Just have to order the rest of the bits and pieces when I get a chance.. Also, sorry I haven't been...
