    Storm Over Lake Erie

    That sounds horrifying. I had an old salt CG guy tell me that he'd take an Atlantic hurricane over a November storm on the Lakes because on the Lakes, the waves bounce off the shore and become confused...he described their shape as "30' Christmas trees coming from all directions," like making...

    Storm Over Lake Erie

    Yeah it's impressive how powerful the Lakes can become in a storm. People have a really bad habit of underestimating Lake Erie, and all of them really...it's exactly as you described, bucolic to demonic in an instant and terrifying.

    Storm Over Lake Erie

    Last Thursday, my brother in Ashtabula texted me that the sky looked "Demonic" over the Lake. He wasn't wrong. This picture is from Fairport, where the storm packed 80 mile an hour wind. Glad I didn't get that...just some serious rain by the time this puppy made its way south to me. I miss...

    In What Year were You Born?

    Never. I joined my band when I was 19, all the other dudes were 27-30. All I heard was "wait until you're our age." Now I'm 36, they're all 40s and pushing 50, and all I hear is "wait until you're our age."

    In What Year were You Born?

    According to my wife (and my knees and crooked back), both.

    Smoking indoors?

    I'll smoke in the living room when my wife's out of town for work, which happens a couple times a year. I'll crack a window, run the furnace fan for ventilation and filtering, and the night before she gets home do a quick vacuum and maybe spray a little febreeze on the couches. She's never...

    ***What Are You Smoking, July 2023?***

    ODF ready rubbed in a gross Savinelli I save for fishing. Bashing bluegill, watching Amish kids play baseball, and slowly getting hungry.

    Sun Bear 2023 - Is This Happening?

    These have always sounded great to me, but I've never pulled the trigger and got some. Hoping for a release this year, I'm a sucker for Va/Or.

    ***What Are You Smoking, July 2023?***

    ODF Ready Rubbed in a Sav, out on the porch, with some tea and rain drops. Bronchitis is fading, so I can actually smoke.

    Definition of Dry Heat

    AC at 75? You poor souls. I'm at 68. And yeah, girls r nice, I'm with you there. It's especially nice when they shed their winter parkas for the first time in months.

    What White Lies Were You Told as a Child or Have You Told Your Children?

    We recently had a kid from Mississippi come work on the farm, he didn't last long, but man he was a treasure trove of this kind of stuff. He wouldn't get close to a toad because it would give him warts. He hid his cellphone when a storm came because it would attract lightning. You eat a raw...

    Definition of Dry Heat

    Yeah I can see you wanting some sunshine working those hours. Me though? I'm in it as soon as it comes up, until it goes down...and the sun can go to hell. Or at least behind a cloud.
