Sunday Blown Out

Winter like conditions kept me out of the yard this weekend and inside the house most of today. Doing laundry and watching the news next to the heater. It will be an early night for me this evening as I jumped out of bed around 4:30 A.M. to watch the sun come up, stay warm people it is still winter here.

Friday Is Here, Keep Your Heads Down!

Crazed ex-cop killer guy on the loose somewhere around here and he is pissed off at the LAPD and any other cop agency for that matter; when cops lives are in danger they really go to work, but if you are part of the general public, safety is your concern and not theirs, in fact if you call for help they will tell you to run to safety, really the police will ask "can you flee"? How far can you run? Remember all of your personal items can be replaced, run! Cops protect each other and that's all they do, let them have their war with each other it makes for good entertainment, run! Does your city have crazed cops too? Riverside has brown and black gangs, Vagos(brown biker wannabe 1%'ers) and crooked cops; looking over your shoulder is a legitimate exercise around here.
Today is Friday on the calendar and I am prepping for the day getting my coffee on and the sun is coming up, keep your heads down people it is all that I have to offer you, rock on!

PAY DAY!

Got Drones?

Drone antics are big news today; Obama's use of drones coming under scrutiny from left leaning people now. Truth is the President has gotten a pass from the very same people that called for drastic actions against members of the Bush administration, are they embarrassed or sleeping on this issue? Is killing American citizens by drones without due process fair game? If President Bush had done this what would the left have said? Guantanamo is a holiday compared to a Hellfire missile in my mind; perhaps you have an opinion about jail vs BBQ? My coffee cup is now empty and that means time to get on the road, rock on!

Laguna Seca Memories - 2011

Hips & Horns!

Blast off people get them horns to the sky and move them hips like a porn star going for the money shot, it is Hump Day! Today the future looks bright and nothing to fear except a bum blocking the foofy coffee isle; I for one am ready to do damage to this day, my sales for Tuesday were good and the wave needs to keep rolling at least until Thursday. Our local gas prices are going up and that kills my business more than anything else.
The clock is telling me to get my butt going so it is shower time; horns up and rock on!

Monkeys Fly In Iran

Iran claims to have flung a monkey into space last week and President Ahmadinejad has fired all the remaining monkey astronauts and has put his name in all their spots to insure his seat on the rocket when Iran goes to the moon sometime next year. Speaking of flying it is time to get my suit on and jet off to work, strap in and rock on!

Up and Atom!

The day after the Superbowl is here and time to face the music; this is pay week but it will be tight 'til Thursday so I have to watch the cash flow out, no exotic cars or fast women. This morning I sorted pictures from the previous weeks photo shoot, I am my biggest critic and I am less than happy but we will see what the guy who will be using them can do with the images. Having to shoot indoors is kind of difficult for me at times and I need more practice and a dedicated light rig I can get used too, however the kit that was borrowed worked damn good.
 Time now to get dressed and roll out to the day job and kick some ass, rock on!

Superbowl Sunday - Nacho Fest 2013

I am not a football fan anymore but this Sunday I have money riding on the office pool; I secretly do want the 49'ers to win as really I hate Ray Lewis of the Ravens. Today I have chores out the ass everywhere and it is a little depressing but I have my head down and as soon as the nachos get here we should be good at the Rockin' Cat Ranch.

*** POST HALFTIME UPDATE ***

Ate like a horse after a round of yard workings; my lower back half is getting dialed in and Del Taco Macho Nachos Green Hell Style and a Double Del took me over the top and now it is time to belch it out...

LATE NIGHTS & EARLY MORNINGS

Friday is here like a cheery bomb in the toilet of the week, boom! I have had good business this week so my next check should be a reflection of that positive note, and my W2's are in the mail so I can handle my taxes ASAP. When I get my return I am heading to New Mexico to visit my family in Belen, a small town outside of Albuquerque for a weekend. It has been a few years since I have visited and since last years plane ticket turned into a new engine for my Honda, I need to do this trip now.
The weather report for this weekend is total California sunshine with temps in the mid 70's, perfect for doing just about everything fun here and that is what I will have to do, cannot waste a moment now it could be raining next week. Time to shower and roll into the office to make something happen in the sales dept., rock on!

OK this is the plan...

Tonight I am scheduled to shoot the tattoo armrests at the private gallery in downtown Riverside after work so tonight will be the tail of a long day. It is Thursday and that means 1 day closer to our favorite part of the week; what are your adventure plans for this weekend? Some people here in the States will be cleaning up from the past weeks storms, I have yard work to do if the weather holds out and we get sun.
Security cameras are on my shopping list next month for the Rockin' Cat Ranch; due to bad neighbors and the general disrespect of thieves that have hit me at least twice now with 1 thwarted incursion under my belt. How fast do the police respond when you call? For me it is between 45 minutes and possibly not at all, that is the record so far with my local law enforcement agency here in Southern California. Safe is relative to how prepared you are; I am not waiting 45 minutes to make a decision ever again when it comes to thieves and unwanted people on my property, rock on!

Hump it up!

Horns to the air and churn those hips, rawwwrrrrrrr it is hump day and as we crest the week into the downhill section we need to tuck in to get maximum wind co-efficiency to make it to the finish line. I am finally feeling better and my cold is moving on; although our weather is back in chilly mode dropping into the 30-40's at night which makes it hard to come back from being sick.
OK  in the news today is yet another story revolving around Iran's "elite" Quds force which is a wing of the "powerful" Revolutionary Guard and how they are poised to attack the USA here and abroad; I just have to ask this simple question, what the fuck makes them "elite" or "powerful"? Iran hasn't fought a major war since the sand tug of war with Iraq in the 80's and one naval battle with the USA in '88 during Operation Praying Mantis when the "small and weak" Iranian navy got sunk by our "totally kick ass" Navy guys and "bad to the fucking bone" Marine dudes. I think the press blows up Iran's capabilities by associating these descriptive tags and monikers to the various military agencies to give them self esteem and personal self worth and until I can see Iran's "powerful" Revolutionary Guard do anything more than round up little boys from poor Iranian neighborhoods to form un-armed human waves they send against enemy positions these guys are nothing more than armed boy scouts with fancy marching skills. Is it time we start adding tags to our military like "molten mayhem" SEAL's or "disturbingly deadly" Rangers to give the impression that they are really mean and not to be messed with? Or does their work speak for itself? Rock on!

Almost forgot Pt. 2

The shoot at the gallery was postponed until Thursday so all I did was come home, feed Loki and went to bed, woohoo!

Obama is angry at Fox news...

News today is our President Obama is angry at Fox news & is blaming them for Republicans not wanting to cave in or be Democratic lackeys, all the while ignoring the fact MSNBC, CNN, CBS and ABC were all in his pocket for the last 2 elections, so much in fact that those news outlets refuse to report on anything negative like the Benghazi incident or how aid to Sandy victims has taken far longer the the Katrina aid did during the Bush administration and now after listening to a soundbite from a 60 Minutes producer talk about how they never tried to make Obama look stupid or ask "gotcha" questions so as not to trip him up in an interview; is that how the media treated President Bush? Not quite right...
 Barack Obama is a typical Chicago bully and he hates when anyone speaks up about his Kool-aid, for those who toss down the cup of punch I say, rock on!

Almost forgot...

Doing another photo shoot at a gallery in downtown Riverside tonight; custom tattoo armrests are my subjects again. Nice little place with local talent hanging on the walls, I will be out late, yeehaw...

Wake it up...

It is Monday morning here in California and I am ailing. Not much got done this weekend as I have a cold and had ripping headaches all weekend, a few inside chores handled but due to rain the outdoors were left alone. I have been dodging the flu that seems to be making the rounds so having a cold is not so bad, my medicine cabinet however is depleted.
Time for me to get the ball rolling and shower off Sunday and face the day, rock on!

Friday Rocking Out

I for one am ready for this week to be done and over with; my chore list is overflowing and it is raining for the next couple of days. Los Angeles Roadster Show is this weekend but if it is raining I will most likely skip it. The truck I have been shooting at my friends shop will be there and it would have been nice to get shots of it finished, we will see what happens. Time to fly, rock on!

The wee hours...

Got home at 1:AM fed Loki and fed myself then fell into bed. Woke up at 5:AM went back to sleep until 6:AM and then I felt strong enough to fall out of bed and get to the pc. Time to shower and roll into work and sell stuff, rock on!

Hump Day Is Go!

Horns up loyal readers and grrrrrrind them hips! Lets do this nowwwwwww! OK I for one am ready to kick today square in the balls and make it happen in a big way, I got home last night at 10:PM after shooting pics of a custom truck a friend of mine is working on, needless to say I am beat, more coffee!
 Tonight should be a normal evening for me and my chores list has grown longer, kitchen duty, laundry and my office are getting hairy and troll like so it is time to tackle them now before Saturday gets here. The sun is coming up as I type and it is time to head to the shower, rock on my friends, rock on!

the UK is now onboard the viking ship...

The United Kingdom have joined the list of countries viewing my nonsense, welcome aboard!

Tuesday - I Am Awake!

Monday is sometimes the hardest day of the week and for me last night was the longest night of the week, helping put a bed on an old truck and shooting tattoo armrests until almost 11 p.m., needless to say I slept like a big baby last night. Tonight will be less demanding and if anything gets done it will be in my office and finished a whole lot earlier. Time to shower off yesterday and kick today in gear for it is time to rock on!

Good Monday Morning

Good morning to Poland, Malaysia and South Korea! Today is the inauguration of our President and MLK Day, a national holiday for some, from where I sit I will be working and thinking of the year to come and getting last years taxes done and how much the new rules will hurt me.
  This weekend was a bit of a blow out for me; I didn't get the number of chores done as I had planned on, but yard duties were conducted on Sunday and the garage was paid the price of neglect and nothing happened in there except laundry. Time to hit the road, rock on!

Let's do a pizza run!

Sunday yard working and I am going for a pizza, yeehaw!
