37 YEARS YOUNG

Picked her up a few months ago. Still working out some kinks but she runs strong (and loud). I'm setting off car alarms left and right. Smog exempt. Gas is for guzzling.

Been wanting a truck for a while. She ain't as purdy as the one Darnel spotted but she turns heads.

Already bloodied a few knuckles and am on a first name basis with folks at the parts spot down the street. FTW.

purdy

Saw this sweet truck at a job and thought well ain't she a beauty.

Behind Enemy Lines

This is how we do, kick back after a long day and put on your man dress, or dishdasha. I am looking for a mini skirt version, maybe a little black cocktail number for special occasions. With my homies A.G. and A.R. in full effect.

RIP Donald "Duck" Dunn


Bummer News.

Bass player and songwriter Donald "Duck" Dunn, a member of the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame band Booker T. and the MGs and the Blues Brothers band, has died in Tokyo. He was 70.
Dunn was in Tokyo for a series of shows. News of his death was posted on the Facebook site of his friend and fellow musician Steve Cropper, who was on the same tour. Cropper said Dunn died in his sleep.

Miho Harasawa, a spokeswoman for Tokyo Blue Note, the last venue Dunn played, confirmed he died alone early Sunday. She had no further details.
Dunn, who was born in Memphis, Tennessee, in 1941, performed on recordings with Eric Clapton, Neil Young and many others, and specialized in blues, gospel and soul. He played himself in the 1980 hit movie "The Blues Brothers."
He received a lifetime achievement Grammy award in 2007 for his work with Booker T. and the MGs.

RAD THING #227

#227: Drinking Beer in the Shower

There are four good times to drink beer in the shower:

1) After a rough night—gotta get your equilibrium.
2) Afternoon refresher.
3) At the end of a long day.
4) Anytime you happen to be in a shower.


(hat tip to Looney on refreshing showers)

BEST HAPPY HOUR IN TOWN

Fifty minutes to the top of the ridge, 70% of it uphill. Up and downs watching the sun fall for another twenty minutes. Drop down the mountain and slide into the market for a deuce of IPA. Six minutes back up a really tough grade to the park. Sun is setting as you polish off another dead soldier. Fly down, through traffic and everything else you sought to avoid by heading into the hills. Back home. See you up there next time.

DJ Chuck Chillout

I got to meet Chuck Chillout the other day when I shot this story for the Times. He was cool as hell. If you ain't down, he got name checked on all kinds of old hip hop records, and broke artists like Public Enemy on his radio show. Legendary. Seems the radio station he works for Kiss FM got closed up. Let's hope Chuck lands on his feet.
