Dead Grotty

I received a DVD copy of “A Hard Days Night” for my birthday last week and finally got around to watching it tonight. Back when I was growing up you were either The Beatles fan or a Roling Stones fan, but rarely both. I liked The Beatles. In junior high school I wanted to be one of them, I wore pointy boots and grew my hair into a mop top. I bought all their records and practiced a Liverpoolian accent behind the closed door of my bedroom. No matter how good their music was, if they were just breaking into the business now, they’d have a rough go of it. At least until they could get their teeth fixed. George’s were dead grotty.

BBQ Overload

Another night on the town! Master’s Miata Club meeting at Bobby’s BBQ out on Highway 1. Usually we get a back room, but they were all booked, so the 15 of us were at a big ol’ table by the wall. Kinda hard to hold a meeting over the really old guy in the corner playing music on a Hammond organ, but then again we usually don’t have much of a meeting. (For all I know that could be Bobby himself.)

Glad I like BBQ as we are having a catered lunch at work tomorrow and that’s what we are having, BBQ.

Started down, still down.

Never Wax Inside

Used the California Duster on the car this afternoon and discovered several more reminders on why I shouldn’t wax the car in the garage. Wiped that dried wax off a few places, but later this evening, in the fading sunshine, I noticed there are still a few more spots. Sigh…

Rode the bikes to work today, so if it wasn’t for the monthly meeting of the Aiken Bicycle Club, the Miata would not have gotten driven today. Is there something wrong with that picture? Bicycle to work and drive to a bicycling function?

Started down, still down.

Damn Yankees III

They are in the playoffs while the Red Sox are all at home doing what I’m doing, watching the playoffs on Fox and rooting for Anaheim. And I’m sure just like our regular season hopes, our post season wishes will be squashed by the boys in pinstripes.
