I hope everyone had a great Labor Day weekend. I sure did. The Allegheny Mountains of East-Central Pennsylvania are so beautiful. I love going back to spend time there. I even played some horseshoes with Kenny and Danny and I have come to the conclusion that I suck.

1. I was going to post last night, but Comcast had an “outage” in our area for most of the evening. Oh well.
2. For long car trips, audio books are amazing. On the drive home from the big PA we listened to most of “Fast Food Nation” by Eric Schlosser until the wife got too grossed out to listen further. Anyone who eats fast food on a regular basis should read/listen to this book. It might just change the way many of them think of fast food.
3. A few days ago I had a post titled Walking on sunshine. I was so impressed by my own cleverness that it disappointed me that no one caught on. As crude and inappropriate as it is, that is the title of an 80’s song by Katrina and the Waves. Sorry.
I’m not going to comment much on the bands I’m posting today. Kings of Convenience are a pop band from Norway. They are good. The Heavenly States are a bit harder to describe. Sometimes garage rock and sometimes very indie/punk-y. We listened to this on our way to PA last Friday and their entire new album “Black Comet” is amazing. Even Amy likes this one. You will too.

Man, people love you. 5 comments in 11 minutes. Not bad. Glad you had a good weekend. I’ll be up this weekend. I think I’m driving up Friday evening. Oh, we caught on to your reference. It just turns out irony is inappropriate at times like these, so we let it go.
A couple more things right now. 1) Post the specs on how you took the picture. I like the portrait stuff you do (this one, the cats, Gillian, etc.) 2) For driving, in addition to the dope jams I like comedy. I just got a couple by Dane Cook. He’s really fucking funny. If you don’t download, I’ll bring em up this weekend and you can get your burn on. Someone should make an emoticon for peace (the logo thing). That would be sweet.
Picture specs are up for all those who care.

Hi interesting site and brilliant info. Found a good site at Affiliate Marketer

oh fast food nation. i think the most fascinating part is the business practices. i suppose being a veteran veggie (if 5 years makes me one) i already knew plenty about where food comes from. i didn’t know that mcdonalds picks up and leaves when the grumblings of a union start.
hey thur, thanks the props to our PA trip last weekend. it was nice to get away. it was also nice to bring home tons of loot for the little one…what’s her name again? i’m sure kurt or your dad could clue us in…
i think you might need to start using the “blogger’s only” can post function or the name id thing that jacob uses…holy comment spammers batman.
thanks “for the” props is how it should read…i sleepy.
Eric you are a pro. Like your blog and your tunes though some are out of my age gap continuem. Don’t often comment but wanted to compliment. I need to stop some of the politics on my blog and be more creative. Though that does not always come easy for me. Great post future dad…nothing better!
Glad you guys had a nice weekend. Your doing well with your photo’s, Eric. I’m getting jealous!
FD & SD – Thanks for the kind words. I enjoy both of your blogs a lot.
this picture brings back a million memories for me…thank you for posting it!
xoxo
