10 years ago we had Steve Jobs, Bob Hope, and Johnny Cash.

Now we have no Jobs, no Hope, and no Cash.

Wonder whose call that was....

Truman.
Eisenhower.
Kennedy.
Johnson.
Nixon.
Ford.
Carter.
Reagan.
G. H. W. Bush.

That's the nine, looks like the current POTUS was not an issue in his decision to pack it in.....

Roger Williams, pianist to presidents, dies

You can't blame EVERYTHING on the guy....much as I'd like to.

All's I'm sayin' is that Williams played as recently as last Spring at the Reagan Library, so he COULD'a played for this guy.

I doubt it was Williams that declined to play.

This guy likely would never even THINK of issuing an invitation to Williams.

Ludovico Einaudi

Not a huge Dean fan, but I can listen to Ludo for hours. To think I took piano lessons for years and they never taught anything like this.

Saw this beautiful truck pulling this beautiful boat on Saturday, and had to snap a picture.

Lotsa dough tied up in those two. Did you happen to notice what the sticker above the door badge said?

No, I guess I didn't, or maybe I forgot. That restaurant in the background was filled with our wedding reception crowd, and we were dodging the ramp traffic to get over there. Right at sunset there were a heck of a lot of boats coming in. I can verify that Ford is the boat tow vehicle of choice in So Cal.

It was. They do a lot of them, and they've got it down pat. The ceremony was at their gazebo on the back bay lagoon area, and then it was a 75 yard walk over to the restaurant. Unfortunately you have to walk across the boat ramp apron, but I guess that adds character.

I was there last weekend for final arrangements, and there was a huge boat being washed out. Didn't have a camera on me, but it was being pulled by a fully matching paint F650, so that gives you an idea of the size. The F650 looked small.
