Wife and I saw Tedeschi Trucks band last night at Chicago Theater. We'll be going again next year for sure. Amazing show and I only know one song.

We went to a place called Broken English Taco Pub on Lake. Had a fried chicken taco that was amazeballs. The carne asada was quite good. I didn't care for the barbacoa but the wife liked it. fun place. good vibes.

The new house is taking shape. We've been making it ours slowly. Still need to hang a bunch of my Mom's paintings, but it's coming along. I am putting my studio together. That's been the last thing on my list. I have the amps in the room and will be hanging guitars soon. I still haven't set up my desktop with the recording software and we've been here for 7 months. I need to get on that.

We're planning on getting another Lab soon. It will be from Lily's brothers brood (from the litter after her). We are getting a male, so she'll have her nephew. Looking forward to that.

Whatcha been got goin on?

Not sure about his woman as I have heard anything but that Trucks is interesting in his varied activity.

I wanted to go that show too and had to cut it for budgetary reasons. Will be going next year if they come back. Had a couple other friends who went who echoed your thoughts. They’re a staple on my large ass Spotify daily mix.

I wish I could do that kind of thing.

AJ is getting baptized on Sunday, so we're really looking forward to a great family celebration. Since the holidays, it's been Dad duty and working a shit job. Fairly benign actually.

Congrats, man! Make sure to enjoy all of the parties that having little ones creates. Getting to the end of it with my youngest turning eleven, and it went too fast.

Sitting here and finding out that my oldest is back into baseball, working with Max Sherzer and with a possible way into pro ball. Even front office style.

I got a new TV. I'm getting a new range/microwave installed this week. I made a resolution to make 2019 the year of new appliances.

Funny story. After dinner out last night me and wife stop at Petland. Just for giggles. Guy is forward and sees us looking a lot at a puppy. Brings it out and we play etc. So I say give me a number. He says 3 years of this and that and we finance and so on. And this Italian Carpo Mastiff can be yours for $6,200. I literally laughed and asked him to repeat himself three times.

Broken English Taco....nice enough, a bit over priced, however my wife and I went there before a show at Chicago Theatre (Todd R.) and barely got served within 90 minutes of walking in

I saw TTB a couple of months ago here in Columbus. Good show, but I don’t think they really need a 30-minute intermission after the first 45-minute set.

Wait, what? Holy cow, that is cool. Sherzer is a Missourah native, right?

I have no idea. They just wanted him to throw and work with some kids. I'm just glad that he sounds happy. And has options.

Can we make this a rolling thread and paste sticky it Wiseman? I think it's good to keep up the good news or bad about the miscreants here.

Congrats to SS, Frank - everyone. I wake up anticipating your thoughts on this board circa 2005.

Be You CFMB!
