The Art of Tony Bones

I had a lot of questions come in response to my post of this year’s Valentine’s Day gift to the lady. Today when I was walking out of the apartment, I remembered that the painting above was her gift last year. Ronda and Robby as interpreted by Tony Bones.
Ironically, we found this painting [...]

“Bitchassedness”

Or is it:
“bitch-assedness”
or
“bitchass-edness”
or
“bitchassed-ness”

Born Too Late!

Ever think you were born too late?  Even at the old-ass age of 32, I still somehow missed this boat.  Damn!

Here are today’s kids doin’ it up right.  If you can do this, you can do anything!

Hip-hop, Acoustic Guitars and JawKneeYeah

I have this theory about hip-hop and acoustic guitars. Back in the old days, kids learning to play guitar would spend hours trying to strum out songs like “Stairway to Heaven”, “Dust in the Wind” or “Hotel California” and later anything by Nirvana and Smashing Pumpkins for days.

The Wells Residence

Google finally added the rough streets of Oak Cliff in Dallas to the Street View feature of Google Maps.  Awww, the Wells Residence:
