    Slow Puff Cafe

    I fish mostly for catfish off my dock. SOMETIMES I even put bait on my hook. Seriously though, most of my time at the lake is spent relaxing and looking at the water. Some folks "don't get it" though. Great place to roast a bowl.

    What's the one song.....

    I've never seen Pink Floyd. I saw the last show the Dead played in Atlanta before Jerry died. Going to see Widespread Panic this October. It looks like this might be their last tour for a while. For some reason, I would really like to see Justin Townes Earle. I am afraid his time on this good...
