Season's Greetings, y 'all. According to Facebook, this big-ass stalactite hanging off my back porch is called an Aquabob. Sounds like something from Bikini Bottom.
Back in working days at the Unemployment Office--which kinda sounds like an oxymoron--I was briefly in charge of the Convicted Ex-Felon Program(or something like that- it's been over a decade!). Besides securing them employment, one other goal of the program was, through the proper “channels”, having the felony stricken from their records.
I thought that might be well-represented by a cartoon character of some sort. Kinda like McGruff, the Crime Dog from the 70s, taking a bite out of crime, only this time in a marine setting. Yes, here comes the groaner: Expunge-Bob.
Yeah, that was awful. The kind of thing that sounds a lot funnier resonating inside your own head. I have a fair amount of those..
Music News. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_khKuEgNOBaSZKwGSOgTTNutJjsjjXmwJU this is one of my new albums. It's called Interluudes.
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_nLPkw5EyvoqeYgIDgVjt62xbT3N4xooHY and this is another one. It's called Boom Boom Room.

These were all projects I'd started and then shelved for some odd reason. They just all seemed to finish themselves around the same time. So I suppose I'm feeling some Post-Partum Blues, after this wave of activity.
Not much happening on the guitar either, but I'm doing the basic maintenance: scales and arpeggios with the metronome. The YouTube page is getting ready for another Minor Milestone here with 398 subscribers. You need at least 1000 to get paid--or, as they put it, monetized--so I doubt that I'll get there. So I just have fun with it. Cool to get comments from various folks out there. And I enjoy all my victories, however minor..
Okay. That's all I've got for you for now. Thanks as ever for stopping in and wading through all this. Much love. More later.
