Re: Pensacola RUP Meetup; Son Volt/Jayfer Geekout

Ben, thanks for the invite! We did have some RUP meetups back in the way back days. I miss the biscuits and gravy. Even if I’d have checked the board in time, I couldn’t have made it. Remember me and Elizabeth’s plan to retire and move to WA? We did it. Been in the PNW since September. Manchester, W...

Re: Space Junk City

I’m eating breakfast and reading the NYT. I check email and see SonVolt has a new album. I think, ‘no way jfarrar.net is extant’. Fucking hell! Jim, Glenn (Glen?), Hoops, Tim (thank you for the words) and fucking Marius have all posted since I returned from my bike ride to the the pub. 2 beers becam...

Rich! Great to hear, er I mean read your voice. I appreciate it. She did so well for so long, but her boyfriend slipped and she followed. The unknown fentanyl addition took her but not him. She dealt with bipolar type 1, rheumatoid arthritis and addiction, as you know, for a long time. 6 years clean...

Just to be clear, I’m only talking about Saturday and Friday. Friday has a 3:50 start time. Also that’s all dependent on whether or not we’re spending time with the 2 youngest grandkids. No drinking Sunday through Thursday, unless during vacation. Still riding my bike, but it’s a quality man bike. M...

Wisdom comes with age, my friend. Grey hairs. Hell, I looked like fucking Gandalf until I trimmed about 4 inches off of my beard about a month ago. :lol:

Greg, me too! I go to bed at 9 PM. Have for at least 20 years. I can’t understand someone wanting to drink at night. Ideally start at 2ish, eat at 6ish, watch TV, bed at 9. That’s livin’. Go to 5 or 6 shows a year. Just saw Tweedy solo at the Tampa Theatre. Top fucking drawer. Went to the 97s in St....

I love New Order. Ceremony is a great track. They did a one off show in Miami in January. We almost drove down. Regrets. Did see them in their heyday, though.

Now listening to Coffee Creek Wild and Blue. When Brian says, "Baby", toward the end, it gets me every time.

Tom and Greg, Thank you for the kind words. Losing a child is as bad as you imagine. My full grieving was somewhat delayed, as I quickly realized we both couldn’t be depressed. I held it together for many months until Elizabeth was relatively better. With the year just happening too, it’s sort of li...

One nitpick on The Reason: at 2:15 in, there's the line "with the company that you keep", which shoehorns in an extra syllable. Personally, I don't think dropping the "that" would change the meaning and, in my opinion, it would flow better: "with the company you keep", is the same meaning. After al...

Gentlemen, hello. My only online presence is here and Via Chicago. I have no interest in FB, Twitter, Instagram, etc. Still 3 grandkids and it wil remain that way due to a tragedy. Our youngest, Kristan, died a year ago March 11th. A few months shy of her 31st birthday. As far as retirement goes, Ju...

Hi Tom Nice homage to my keyboard incompetence111 One thing you must admit about Reality Winner, regardless of your opinion on her actions and punishment, is that she made quite a success of her life, pre-theft and/or whistleblowing, in spite of having the type of parents that would name their child...

Whoa! Tiny Elvis posting politics. Damn, I did wake up in a Farrar board time warp! Hello, Tiny E. I see you still have a wrong-headed worldview. :lol:
You know I'm just fucking with you. It's been a long time since we agreed you're nuts and you'd buy me a beer if we met. :P
