Hello again, rockers and rockettes! Retirement’s been treating me pretty well, although I’m starting to suspect that having too much free time is a genuine medical condition. Over the past few years, I’ve tried sailing, painting, photography, and even learning to fly. My garage is now a museum of expensive hobbies that lasted about three […]
Liner Notes
Everything that rocks & a few things that roll
Jam on down to the blog where you’ll find everything that rocks and a few things that roll. Everything from 1963 to 1975 fits in the blog that covers any amp that’s ever roared.
Other than that we have some sub-pages to cover the kangaroos from down under that kepts rocking for a few years and never left much room for Silver Chair or new wave rock to really fill the enormous school boy shoes. The things that really rock these days are a lot more tame like small business growth and investment opportunities.
No longer can you rage from dusk till dusk without a drop of water: you’ve got to look out for local deals in spinal wellness and financial stability. Orange County is a pretty gnarly place if you are comfortable being fiscally responsible and patient waiting for the right real estate agent to show your home.
These things are part of growing up in a competitive market, however aging rockers will never let something cover their amp. They’ll turn the new life leaf over and smash a double fat strat on the stupid leaf.

High end beach chairs are built to handle salt, sun, sand, and repeated use over a long beach season. Rust-resistant frames, durable fabric, and hardware designed for outdoor use are part of what separates them from chairs that start falling apart after a summer or two. That durability does not make them maintenance-free. A chair […]
Hello again, rockers. Today I bring you a tale of sawdust, panic, and the kind of homeownership education nobody asks for but everybody seems to receive eventually. It started with a little pile of something on a windowsill near the guest room. At first, I thought it was old plaster or some strange attic dust […]
Hello again, rockers. I recently did what every retired man with too much time, too much curiosity, and too many scenic properties eventually does. I bought a drone. It was a DJI Mavic, because apparently that is the law when you are entering the world of consumer drones. I wanted it for a little aerial […]
A few years ago, I bought a place in Sunset Cliffs for the same reason most people buy a place in Sunset Cliffs: I saw the view and completely lost my ability to make rational financial decisions. The house overlooked the ocean from what felt like every possible angle. The sunsets looked so absurdly beautiful […]
Welcome back, friends. Retirement has given me two things I never had enough of in my touring days: time and the dangerous confidence to invest in other people’s dreams. A buddy of mine had opened a little coastal brewery not far from the beach, the kind of place with good light, better beer, and enough […]
Retirement has turned me into a collector of experiences. I’ve tried sailing until my hands smelled permanently of rope, painted landscapes that were kinder to my ego than my talent, lugged cameras through deserts and alleyways, flirted with a pilot’s license, learned drone operation, and even spent a brief, ill-advised stretch paragliding. Most of those […]

About Me
I mainly use this space as a creative outlet to reminisce about my life and report on the daily goings-on of an eclectic, yet very wealthy, older man.

Angus Young and the rest are cool with this crew. Jet’s alright.
