So because of snow, may not go out to Mom this weekend--next week is a chemo week for her anyway and I have the 17th off so I could do a 3 day weekend with her when she really needs it. The conundrum: If I have the weekend "off" I could REALLY use a haircut. BUT...COVID and shit. I may just let it grow out until this latest wave passes and the worst of the winter passes...argh.

If youse all are interested, K8 and the Gang have a deal for unique, dedicated, live 45s of their songs. They are doing a session with Leesta Vall, and all tracks will be cut live with a lathe press.

C&K is donating their portion of all the revenues to the National Network of Abortion Funds.

So if you want a unique 45 with a live track that you pick and is dedicated to YOU -- just see my profile for details.

Sorry to spam the board, David! Thanks for the indulgence for a good cause.

LOL RE roof jumping stories. There was a kid in my high school who was doing parkour before anyone in the States even had a name for it. He was a total class clown but he was also #1 on the track team. Anyway, he was famous for jumping out of windows and doing a proper roll, etc. OTOH he was also incredibly coordinated--when we all had to do hurdles in gym class, he ran and did hurdles BACKWARDS and was still the fastest kid in class. Wound up going to Duke on a track scholarship.

i trained myself for jumping (and landing) by jumping off "the footbridge" gradually closer to the river, as the ground got lower. i definitely got over 12' but i don't know exactly.

We get reception in the bathroom on the Bathroom Boombox. Really just hoping that the antenna in the front room will work.

Try making a dipole antenna, RevRab. Basically run some coax from your receiver out to the yard and hang between two telephone poles, trees, or what have ya. The higher the better.
