last december i blogged about casey kasem counting down american top 40 hits from the 80s, and how cool it is to hear the reruns. one of the most recent shows that aired had this shout out to joplin, mo.

a big thanks to all who came to mondo beep last friday: laura, hannah, angie (thanks for hosting!) and both ians. once again it was too cold to beep outside so we made the usual noise in angie’s basement. this pic was taken moments before the keyboard started smoking.

well, another foot of snow fell between last night and this morning. the first foot of snow fell last thursday. it had been so long since anyone had seen that much snow around here, folks were acting awkward and making that first foot feel like the new kid in town… but not in a cool eagles kinda way, they were making that first foot feel unwelcome, seriously! no one was gonna hang out or eat lunch with that first foot around! it was getting teased so bad that this other foot of snow came along to intimidate the neighborhood bullies.

most of the time mojo (our cat) is a black blob in pics, but this morning the sun was hitting him just right as he watched a neighbor across the street. when jenny got next to him to see what he was looking at, i went for the camera.

this song is over 8 years old now, and i just saw the video this morning. i feel a connection with this band.

i finally got around to editing a video that was recorded two weeks ago when laura, angie, and i plugged in alot of electronic stuff and made a racket in the living room. this is what i do every first friday for mondo beep.

glenn winkler came over last night to practice some songs that we are going to play for an ash wednesday service at homer’s tonight. we’ve only played one other time at a friend’s wedding reception. the pic above is from 4 years ago when glenn appeared on abracadiner. here’s a little post practice jam with glenn on electric guitar and me on the monotribe.

here is what happened: the oscar mayer wienermobile was parked in front the post office this morning. it came from wisconsin. i pulled laura out of homer’s so we could take these pics of each other. afterwards the driver gave us each a wiener whistle.

i play in a group called wailin’ wall. tonight we’ll be at homer’s coffeehouse playing the first of 6 dates scheduled for 2013. see you at 7:30! and for the record, the band in the pic above is NOT wailin’ wall… i don’t know who they are, but they look like they have as much fun as we do.

mike mcneil mailed me a care package recently. when i was in college, a care package usually contained stuff from home like your favorite food and maybe clean underwear. mike’s care package was full of toggle switches, knobs, alligator clips, LED’s, and other electrical stuff. i am usually in short supply of these things when i take on a circuit bending project. so thanks mike. your awesomeness exceeds you.
