The Future is Now

  
Happy Back to the Future Day.  10/21/15 is the day that Marty McFly showed up in the future.  It was a future where flying cars existed, hover boards were everywhere (except over water), kids wore their clothes inside-out, and the Chicago Cubs had just won the World Series.

Well the Cubbies are still in it, but after dropping their third straight to the Mets, it’s hard to see them being alive for much longer.  Yet another way that movies lie to us.

At least we know that Star Wars is true.  It’s all true.  The Dark Side, the Jedi, all of it.

Star Wars The Force Awakens Trailer #3

I am not ashamed to admit that this 2.5 minute commercial gave me chills.  Does that make me a super nerd?  Yes, and I don’t care.

Tickets are on sale now.  I am going to need to figure out when and where I want to see it for the first time.  I was considering taking the day off and trying to get to an afternoon show, preferably an IMAX show.  We’ll see.

Cat-aversary

Yesterday marked the fifth anniversary of our adopting Patches aka Panache aka Panic aka Kitty aka Cat aka Lady Penelope Clearwater.

Here she is at the MSPCA.

  
And here she is being lazy on top of her cat tree.

  
Good kitty.

Notes on Scheduling

Just a note on scheduling things.

When you and two of your bandmates try to reschedule practice from 6:00pm to 4:00pm, don’t make other plans until the fourth band member agrees to the time change… especially when that fourth guy is the one who lives in the house you rehearse in.

Wooops, sorry about that gentlemen!
