Disney Concert Hall

This week's Friday photo is the Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles. Saw it somewhere on tv last night. I was in LA a few years ago for work. I walked up Grand Ave past the Disney Concert Hall everyday to go to the job we were working on. One suggestion for you, try to avoid walking back down Grand at 2am. I had a guy come up to me and ask for money. That's no big deal, but when he stuck his hand in his pocket I thought for sure he was going to pull out a knife or gun. Instead he pulled out a handful of change to show me what he had.

Four years ago

Four years ago today I was in Milwaukee. What's that have to do with anything? I don't know either, but I when I was there I spotted this sign. I hadn't seen one in a while before I was there and I don't think I've seen one since.

I don't know if Milwaukee is the socialist haven that it used to be, but maybe they keep (at least keep the signs up anyway) fallout shelters for when guys like me visit.

Go Sam Go!

I am a big Bengals fan. Yes, I root for that sorry team from Cincinnati. The last time they made the Super Bowl the coach was Sam Wyche. I stumbled across a link yesterday about Wyche running for the Republican nomination for Pickens County (SC) Council. It turns out he defeated the incumbent by a wide margin. Here's hoping he wins the general election and makes a positive difference in that community.

I would be completely remiss if I didn't put up this video. It is one of my all time favorite sports moments.

Still here

I haven't blogged here regularly, oh, probably ever, but every so often I do wish to put something up for the world to see that doesn't qutie fit in over at Tertium Quids (where I very infrequently post). I'm no Jane from Conservativa fame, but I do like to take pictures so I think I'm going to put up some shots every once in a while (however terrible they may be). I may offer some commentary, but I don't think any is necessary this time, other than to say it is from the WWII memorial in DC.
