Banjo Building In Norway

December 20, 2007

My buddy Tor in Norway has decided to build himself a banjo – and he is documenting the whole process on the Internet.

I can’t wait to see and hear how this turns out!

Happy Bonesday

December 20, 2007

“My birthday is on the twenty-third.”

“Oh, that’s nice.”

“That’s this Sunday.”

“Really?”

“Yeah. I’ll be seventy-seven years old.”

“Wow.”

“I don’t have anything planned.”

“Yeah . . .”

“Right before Christmas too.”

“Certainly makes things festive.”

“Did I tell you that my birthday is this Sunday?”

“And you don’t have anything planned.”

“Not yet anyway. Somebody might come up with something . . . On Sunday. My birthday. Right before Christmas.”

I can take a hint, so on Sunday I’ll be taking him to the Circle Inn here in Crisfield for a nice lunch – and anybody who was at the Folk Musicians Retreat in August can tell you that the Circle Inn serves great food. it’s a wonderful place.

If any of you want to send Mr. Bones a happy birthday message feel free to use the comments or the contact form and I will pass them on to him on Sunday.
