In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks.

Hi all! It seems like an eternity since I last posted a personal link. Got out the camera this weekend and went for a sunny, albeit brisk, Sunday stroll.

Point...Click!!

They are multiplying!

Great wheat paste two blocks down. More of them in the hood but I see them in passing and forget to take note. Next time.

First of a few flora pictures. Mind you these were taken Sunday, November 23. Green and flowering. Love it!

No not the first bud of spring...one of the many rose buds of winter. They grow like weeds here.

I love these types of berries. The tree is completely stripped of all leaves but it still has these vibrant yellow-orange berries.

Even better berries. It is almost too bad the leaves on this tree aren't ashy-white. Would be kinda patriotic.

Thank you Shane for the heads up on this particular plant. It is a Clerodendrum.

And I leave on a textured note. Always loved the bark on the trees in my yard growing up. Sometimes so much I brought the sappy stains from them into the house on my clothes, skin and hair.

Is that a head on your shoulders or something you use for ornamentation?

While I was making yesterdays Candy Apple Grey 180 gram vinyl post I found out about The Gang Font featuring Interloper. The Gang Font is a project involving The Bad Plus and Greg Norton from Hüsker . I knew about Grey Area, a short lived project of Mr Nortons that has not released a single track to this date, but The Gang Font is new to me.

The spell you're under will slowly rob you of your virgin soul


Why is there not a band called this?

Dirty Deke and the Dunder Chiefs!


While we are at it...other bands I wish existed:

The Breakneck Speeds (Knuckle draggin' hot rod)
The Rods and Cones (Math rock)
...And You Will Find Us By The Trail Of Bread (Hipster alternative)
Chix-Eat-Dix (All girl sludge punk)
The Chelsie Clintons (Snot nosed American made Brit punk rip off)

Anybody want to add to this?

“And now, your highness, we will discuss the location of your hidden rebel base...”


I do not know when I started feeling like this but I can not look at Robert Fripp without thinking of Darth Vader. Fripp in a black jacket wielding a guitar like a light saber.
I think of him as the frail
unmasked Vader not the staunch leather fisted choke you for talking out of turn Vader. His taxed breathing a guitar ringing in ambient loops.

So musical a discord, such sweet thunder

If you didn't go to the East End Friday the 4th you missed a great show. Each group played a short set. It was not very bright because it was a basement room. The pictures I took aren't the greatest.

Uh really?!

Thrum & Throb

INUKSUK

Would love to hear more of these guys.

All I've got I had to steal, least I don't need to beg or borrow


It is so good to hear Van Halen in a new way. I present Tim Hecker's "My Love Is Rotten To The Core".

US prime, grade A, stamped guaranteed, just grease it up and bring on the heat. Throw it down and roll it over once or twice, then chow down

SNV Grimace Guy postal sticker.

These things keep popping up on my porch. Scary.

"I don't care how you like your coffee." Damon!

"I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that."



I do not know flowers so a little help might be nice. It was so windy when I went out for these that I left more in the camera than I posted.

Bathroom remodeling can often be very overwhelming

Always wanted to share this. The view while on the throne in my bathroom.

Is it a vanity if there is no mirror? Can it be called a vanity when the mirror is not in view?

Bandages. Curad Battle Ribbons and Bacon & Eggs.

When the game is over, the king and the pawn go into the same box


Everything's getting hazy.
Now honey, where'd you go?
I just want to find out, baby...where'd you learn what you know?
