Why do we name our bikes? Or for that matter, our cars, boats, or snowmobiles. You name the vehicle and someone has given it a name. My friend Merv, RIP, had an orange custom he called Tigger. All over Columbus people knew Tigger and knew that it was Merv’s scoot. I had a chanceContinue reading “Why do we name our bikes?”

Ride With The Devil’s Daughters
I’m going to start up a new ‘feature’ of this blog. Earlier I posted my review of a Cardo Freecom 4+, so I figured I should force my musical tastes on y’all as well (grin). First up is a kick-ass rockabilly self-titled album from a group called The Devil’s Daughters. Now the cats that makeContinue reading “Ride With The Devil’s Daughters”
Azul Restaurant and Lounge – Mill Creek, WA
The Azul Restaurant & Lounge in Mill Creek Town Center advertises itself as a Latin American Bistro, and that description really fits the place. We went there to try out their brunch offerings, and we were not disappointed in the least. The place is Mill Creek upscale, with solid middle of the road pricing. Plenty of lightingContinue reading “Azul Restaurant and Lounge – Mill Creek, WA”
Mystical Motorcycle Music
Couple of years ago I traded in my 2014 Street Glide for an ’18 Heritage Classic. Love the scoot and I’ll post a long overdue writeup soon. One of the things I missed, however, was my tunes. Man, I dig the sound of a big ol’ Harley motor as much as the next gear head,Continue reading “Mystical Motorcycle Music”
Chocolate Hummus
Yes, you read that right. Chocolate hummus is at Trader Joe’s. Chickpeas, tahini paste, seat salt, oil, cocoa and a little sugar. It is CRAZY good! I know what you are thinking, ‘Gregor, you’ve been into the martini juice a little early’. I swear, not a drop. Not even a drunk olive. The taste isContinue reading “Chocolate Hummus”
“Write Drunk, Edit Sober”
Intersting title, no? Many people attribute this quote to Ernest Hemingway, but as far as historians can tell, it’s not true. I love Hemingway, so who cares. It sounds like something he would have said. It should come as no surprise that I love reading. My favorite contemporary authors now are Clive Cussler, who’s mainContinue reading ““Write Drunk, Edit Sober””
Serenity on the Tree Stand
It’s Friday afternoon and you feel the stress of the whole week hanging on you like the coat of a wet Newfoundland. You get home, cast off the crap of the week and grab your go-to pack and run out the back. Your buddy picks you up and you head to hunting camp. Finally. OnceContinue reading “Serenity on the Tree Stand”
The Eagle
The Eagle wasn’t always the Eagle. The Eagle, before he became the Eagle, was Yucatangee, the Talker.Yucatangee talked and talked. It talked so much it heard only itself. Not the river, not the wind, not even the Wolf. The Raven came and said, “The Wolf is hungry. If you stop talking, you’ll hear him. The windContinue reading “The Eagle”
Tolerance
“Tolerance implies no lack of commitment to one’s own beliefs. Rather it condemns the oppression or persecution of others.” – John F. Kennedy
