When things just work.

Admittedly my fault for letting my 3 1/2 year old use my expensive Beyerdynamics reference headphones for listening to Dora on her tablet, but still when the audio started to cut out on one side after only 3 months I was a little disappointed.
Foxtone sold these headphones refurbished for a very fair price with a warranty. Beyerdynamics warrants the parts and labor on these cans for 2 years! The unnervingly unorthodox return method made me a bit hesitant but I had so many obligations on my plate last week that I didn't have time to worry or put much more thought into their return process. Shipped my headphones to some guy in New Jersey.
A little over a week later I have them back and in perfect working order. It's awesome when systems just work and you know no one was out to screw you in the process, its exceedingly rare these days which makes it all the more wonderful when it happens.

New AC so nice. I wrote some riffage to it.

Just dicking around, had fun with solo at the end. Grab notes with reckless abandon and bend the shit out of em.

Honda CRV Filter Change

Maybe these dirty ass filters are partly to blame for the previous ac compressor burning out on this vehicle. Honda on Siegen in Baton Rouge did everything but change the filter to try and cover up the smoke smell in the vehicle. For those of you who think car dealerships are looking out for you, wake up, or give me some of what you are smoking.
I'll admit this is something I should have changed when I bought the vehicle a year ago but it obviously wasn't high on my priority list since the new filters have been sitting in my car for 3 months now. After watching a youtube video I realized it would only take 5 min to change out. Cleaner cabin air here we come.

Joke du jour

This is too good not to share. Worth the read...

A Harley and a Jar of Vaseline Joe wanted to buy a motorcycle. He doesn't have much luck, until one day, he comes across a Harley with a 'for sale' sign on it. The bike seems even better than a new one, although it is 10 years old. It's shiny and in absolute mint condition. He immediately buys it and asks the seller how he kept it in such great condition for 10 years. 'Well, it's quite simple really,' says the seller, 'whenever the bike is outside and it's gonna rain, rub Vaseline on the chrome. It protects it from the rain.' (true story) And he hands Joe a jar of Vaseline. That night, his girlfriend, Sandra, invites him over to meet her parents. Naturally, they take the bike there. But just before they enter the house, Sandra stops him and says, 'I have to tell you something about my family before we go in.' 'When we eat dinner, we don't talk. In fact, the first person who says anything during dinner has to do the dishes.' 'No problem,' he says.. And in they go. Joe is shocked. Right smack in the middle of the living room is a huge stack of dirty dishes. In the kitchen is another huge stack of dishes. Piled up on the stairs, in the corridor, everywhere he looks. Dirty dishes. They sit down to dinner, and sure enough, no one says a word. As dinner progresses, Joe decides to take advantage of the situation. So he leans over and kisses Sandra. No one says a word. So he reaches over and fondles her breasts. Still, nobody says a word. So he stands up, grabs her, rips her clothes off, throws her on the table and screws her, right there in front of her parents. His girlfriend is a little flustered, her dad is obviously livid and her mom horrified when he sits back down, but no one says a word. He looks at her mom. 'She's got a great body,' he thinks. So he grabs the mom, bends her over the dinner table, pulls down her panties, and screws her every which way but loose right there on the dinner table. After she has a big orgasm, he sits down again. Now his girlfriend is furious and her dad is boiling, the Mom is pleasantly beaming. But still.... Total silence. All of a sudden there is a loud clap of thunder, and it starts to rain. Joe remembers his bike, so he pulls the jar of Vaseline from his pocket. Suddenly the father shouted. I'll do the fuckin' dishes!!

The brother's place

Got to hang out with my brother and his wife last weekend. Lizzie got
to see Joaney again. I haven't seen Lizzie in a while so it was nice
chatting with her. Can't believe she's teaching Zumba classes. I guess
since I remember her birth like it was yesterday I never really expect
her to do adult things. Had a really good time hanging out with the
family though. Confirmed: Joaney is really allergic to cats.

Dr. Oz ...Cholesterol

Wow, I've actually made 102 posts now! Crazy!

Anyway, just a quick post so I can have any friends reference this easily. Dr. Oz interviews some Doctors who really hit the nail on the head. I'm really surprised to see this interview. If you are struggling with weight, inflammation, diabetes, or heart disease, please just check out this video.This video follows the same train of though as an Ancestral / Primal lifestyle.
Sugar is the Enemy!

Learning Paleo

For my friends sincerely trying to figure out Paleo. It's simple,
meat, veggies, water. You can sautee mushrooms, use sea salt and
pastured butter or ghee (clarified butter).
This is bison, sautéed mushrooms, shrimp cocktail, asparagus and
carrots. It took about 20 minutes and the willingness to invest in
one's self. I cooked tomorrow's meals at the same time (burger patties
and squash 45 min). 3 meals of quality that you cannot buy at a
restaurant made in 50 min. Beats spending the same money on
pharmaceuticals and still feeling like shit right?
