Had a great guitar lesson with Bill Collins today. Played my first improvised guitar solo. Now I ain’t no Eddie Van Halen…. #guitar

It’s okay to stink up the streetcar with fresh cheeseburgers when they’re MY fresh cheeseburgers.

Metal update: making of the Metal was accomplished. Guitars, stomp boxes, shredtastic shreddley shredding. And home early! #metal #lucifuge

Job didn’t pan out. The boss hired someone, got covid and forgot to cancel interviews. I was one of those interviews. So yeah.

Off to the bunker studio for a weekend of metal. I’ll be the guy behind the camera, taking quality shots of the latest shredtastic axe and evil stomp box from the great LUCIFUGE #metal #lucifuge

/r/slotcars on Reddit hit 10,000 subscribers today. It’s been a long, great journey running the page for the last 10 years. Filled with people from all over the world who love slot cars. It’s been a pleasure being part of it. #slotcars

Just tookn delivery of an LR Baggs M80 pickup for my D-15M. Let the recordings begin!

Doing my bedroom Lux impersonation:

Nobody told me that getting one of those fancy geetars would turn me into a meteorologist overnight. AMA about humidity! Don’t.

55 cars tuned and ready for the new race season, beginning tomorrow. I’ll be in pajamas and a helmet. We go hard around here. #slotcars

Due to budget cuts, there will be no more smashing the like button.

Minnesota Frost from PWHL has some dope purple uniforms. #pwhl

And yeah, I did feel like I was spending too much at the time and needed to curb slot car purchases for awhile. So I made a moratorium for the holidays. Now I’m going to get back on the track. 57 cars in a fight to glory. Individual, team and constructor’s championships! #slotcars

Went and dusted off the slot cars from their wintery slumber. Racing starts this week!

I made it through the holiday season without buying a single slot car. That’s the first time in 8 or 9 years I’ve done that. I think it was a good decision.

My daughter has been awake since 4 am. Big day today. Weihnachtsmarkt. Xmas Market. Beautiful day for it.

Today seems like a good day to scout the Weihnachtsmarkt. Soft opening was yesterday. Seasonal delicacies await!

New job more or less confirmed. Another meeting and I start on Monday. 2 years of job searches are nearly over.

At a club checking out my buddies Tom Holliston and Simon Wells.

I think I’m close to having enough material to start doing some solo guitar gigs. It’s about 2/3’s originals. I’m kinda hoping to put a little something together with some other people so we can open up possibilities.

This morning, while having coffee, I heard a pop song on the radio and successfully identified the artist and the title without help. It was “Flowers” by Miley Cyrus. So take that, age.

Shoutout to billcollinsguitar.bsky.social . He’s your man when it comes to guitar lessons. Whether in person or over the internet, Bill’s a great teacher. I recommend him.

Bad troll trolling badly.

More people should run Revoslot slot cars. They’re fun and fantastic looking. #slotcars

Yes!

Some slot car driver specs: I’m a solo racer, running 55 or so cars from Slot.it, NSR, Revoslot, Policar, Thunderslot and Carrera against each other on painted Carrera Evo track. Used to have a table, but back on the floor these days. Cars run time trials. I publish the results. #slotcars

A couple of Revoslot race cars running through the streets of Lego City. #slotcars #Lego #Photography

Sports media tried crapping on the A’s fans first, but the stench coming from John Fisher overcame that urge. Still sickening that there are owners (and their cronies in MLB offices) who have control over things like this. Holding cities for ransom, essentially.

I’m just going to come out and say it: the Oakland A’s and Major League Baseball broke my heart and ruined baseball for me. #oaklandathletics #mlb

My old photography setup for #slotcars. Canon 500d. I’ve since upgraded to a 900d and a bunch of new lenses. Btw I’m a mod at r/slotcars on reddit. Biggusmikus. #photography
