Steve's World

It may sound gross, it may seem as if you wouldn’t go near it with a ten foot pole. However, if you grew up (or ever lived) in the midwest, you may have fond memories of pickled bologna… Yes, the amazing stuff that comes in a big jar, one continuous piece of tube meat in […]

Yesterday the sun came out around 2 and stayed bright and breezy, t-shirt weather! I saw a couple convertibles with the tops down and heard a lot of bikes cruisin’ around. Very tempted to put the top down on my Jeep, but I know from past times even though it’s warm, I’ll freeze my ass […]

So yesterday- Painted the ceiling in the cottage, am going up there soon as I finish this to do the second coat. Then I’ll install the light fixtures and ceiling fan. Then G came up and we had a nice afternoon, just relaxed in bed and veged out. Last night drove all the way to […]

Oh, I forgot- The NEW Lucinda Willams album is out today !! And the critics are giving it rave reviews, of course… It is absolutely fan-f**king-tas-tic… When I saw her last summer at Central Park she played a lot of songs off it and I’ve been waiting since then for it’s release. You can listen […]

Damn, I’m really getting a little tired of snow now. I like it and all, in the winter that is. But I have stuff to do and it’s messing with my schedule. Up in the cottage I put in the kitchen sink and faucet and finished piping out the water main in the boiler room. […]

Ah, once again I’ll have to remember which clocks I have changed and which ones not as I try to figure out what time it is. It’s so much more fun to just change half of them. Not much new to report around here. Had a relax and hang around in bed and on CUseeme […]

OK, I was EXHAUSTED last night. Got the cables dragged through the conduit and hanging there ready to hook into the respective panels. It was a major pain and I was out there at 7:00 pm with work lights on backfilling the trench! Came inside, talked to Grace and told her I was gonna hang […]

Yeah I know, it’s kinda cheesy and everyone does it. I must have too much time on my hands, or maybe I’m avoiding all the “not fun” work around the homestead by feeling compelled to add content here. In any case, I sat down and wrote the almost obligatory “100 Things” page, and it’s on […]

Well I skipped a few days but I’ve been busy. You may notice I added a cool guestmap (please pop a pin in your location), a comic of the day, and the good old weather pixie so you know what it’s like outside my window right now. And if you are intrigued by the “autoerotic” […]

Yup, I love that line, what ? You don’t like The Beatles ? Shame on you… Alright- things that irritate me right now- I haven’t eaten, we have food, but that means I have to cook, and then clean up. I have no job, no money, but tons of bills. The way the IT sector […]
