My almost 20 years old Yamaha RXV1900 is still kicking asses. I know the newer Atmo-supported receivers have better sound but I'm not ready to upgrade yet.
I’m still rocking a JVC JRS 501 in the garage, it blows away my NAD and Cambridge Audio integrated amps by a country mile. Not the lightest or prettiest, but still holds a huge place in my heart………..

Not huge on who's hot or not in the comedian world... My favs are Carlin, Norm (RIP both) and Bill Burr and Jeselnik are too of my head my favs...... Anyone new or different I should check out?!

(I know of more but those are my usual go to's for laughs and shit)

Bill Burr and I see the world almost exactly to a tee, I’ll give a honourable mention to the late great Mitch Hedberg, RIP brother……..

He was a gem, when his deli corn beef sandwich came the waiter asked him if he needed anything else, Mitch replies “yeah a loaf of bread and four friends.”

You don't have to be sorry. It's 3AM, you're a dry cleaner. It would be ridiculous for me to expect you to be open. I'm not going to show up at 10 o'clock the next morning saying someone owes me an apology.

I have that CD, been listening to it for years, still makes me laugh every time it comes up in my Itunes.........

My favourites were always: I bought a talking parrot and he died. He never told me he was hungry.

and I used to do drugs. I still do but I used to too.
That drugs line is one of my faves also.

I like to eat rice, whenever I'm in the mood for two thousand of something.

Leafs and Bills win, Steelers lose. A good day. That Josh Allen sure can play!

For those interested in the waterfront east redevelopment of the former portlands area. The new mouth of the Don River is now fully connects the lake to the river.




What I recently discovered is that the TPA is planning to build a cruise ship terminal with the development of that area. The existing terminal is pretty small...and the numbers suggest it's a need.

I have a Mesa Boogie F-30 and a Hughes & Kettner Grandmeister 36. Great range of tonal options...but I am currently on the market for a Fender Blackface. 😂

I used to own a Fender Deluxe Reverb (reissue). For playing solo jazz guitar, that thing was the king. Never tried a blackface.
