This is a good, but not great, Turrentine. It’s super mellow, and has its moments (B-side is better than the A-side). #bluenote #bluenoterecords #jazz #souljazz #jazzfunk #funk #organ #hammondb3 #sax #tenorsax #saxophone #vinyl #record #usedvinyl #jazzsky #oldrecords #nowspinning

Spent the last 20 minutes performing surgery on this, getting rid of a skip (it worked). Reissue from ‘97 from Blue Note’s Rare Groove series and they are hard to find. I’ve found a bunch of them; this one was from a cool record store in the basement of the Arlington Hotel in Hot Springs, AR.

Big ass conference at my bank since last week. A bunch of economists with Coke bottle bottom glasses wandering around, absolutely clueless on how to do basic stuff like badge in at the front entrance, how to use a fucking elevator… Absolutely pathetic. Expect the next Great Depression shortly.

If my dad had seen this, he would provided his standard response: “She’s going to be my next ex-wife”.

Tough to do. I went with top LPs that influenced my overall rock aesthetic. Need to make a separate list for jazz and LPs that influenced me as a drummer.

I’ve taken a version of this pic for every Harley I’ve owned. It’s an alley next to Schlafly Brewery near downtown St. Louis, at the back of what was the original home of Doc’s Harley Davidson. #motosky #harley #harleydavidson #motorcycle #bike #ride

Now Spinning: A Toshiba-EMI reissue of this from ‘92. I found this at a legit good record store located in the basement of The Arlington Hotel in Hot Springs, AR on my honeymoon! #jazz #jazzsky #bluenote #vinyl #record #bop #hardbop #usedvinyl #oldrecord #nowspinning

Absolutely one of my all time favorite colors. I proudly owned a ‘23 Thruxton RS in two-tone Competition Green (as Triumph calls it) and Silver Ice.

Heart goes out to the owners of The Heavy Anchor, Josh & Jodie, whose awesome dive bar got an unexpected/undeserved facelift recently. #stlouis #missouri #bar #dive #venue #divebar #southcity

Also checked an item off my bucket list: stopped at Doe’s Eat Place in Little Rock and had one of the best steaks ever.

Took a quick & easy honeymoon to Hot Springs, AR. Had a great time, worth the 6 hr drive from STL. Stayed at the Arlington. Did the trad bathhouse routine at the Buckstaff. Did some diamond mining in Murfreesboro, AR. Went to a Buc-EE’s for a first time. Had some amazing BBQ. A+, 10/10.

The Waffle House I frequent upgraded their irons to new ones that imprint “Waffle House” on the waffles. The staff admitted to me that they were scared it would make the waffles taste different. #waffles #wafflehouse #breakfast #hautecuisine #food #eat #modernization #waffle #fastfood #diner

“He even went through the hassle of finding a top-trim Sebring with a heated and cooled cup holder, because why wouldn’t you when you’re collecting the best that Daimler Chrysler had to offer in 2007?”

Meet the Guy Who Owns Every 2007 Chrysler Model in the Same Shade of Blue

Ryan Maruca is 25 years old, and he loves Chrysler's Daimler era. That's why he collected the manufacturer's entire lineup from 20 years ago.

As a resident of the St. Louis metro area, I applaud this.

It looks good on vintage bikes (think Harley flatheads from the ‘30’s). Beyond that…. Nope.

There’s a few A&W’s in the St. Louis metro area. The food quality is really inconsistent but the root beer is always terrific.

For those whining about Michigan’s win, please see: 2001 Michigan v. Michigan State, Michigan v. USC in the 1979 Rose Bowl, and 2016 Michigan v. OSU. In short, fuck off. College officiating has ALWAYS been terrible.

Long story short: after suffering through 2 heat waves over the past 2 months, we now have a new air conditioner. Feels like we just won the lottery.

I told my fiancé I wanted to open a dive bar called The Twerkin’ Jerk and she said people are going to show up expecting some sort of “back room action” and I told her there would be, but it would be slot car racing with illegal betting.

I get why Europeans make fun of Hershey chocolate, but I’d like to point out that Nestlé is absolute garbage. #chocolate #europe #hershey #nestle

One of my asks for our wedding was to have pie AND cake because generally, I’m not a big cake fan and I thought to have both cake & pie would be fun. My fiancé just ordered our stuff & informs me she ordered SIX pies: “two apple, one cherry, one chocolate silk, one key lime, and one coconut.” 😳
