Watching a guy restore a machine gun.

As one does.

@hotdogsladies Some of these restoration channels can be remarkably satisfying.

@hotdogsladies I'm still grateful for you pointing me (well, not me personally, but "us") at his version of Cheap Trick's "In Color".

Spotted a Fisher cat on the side of Little River Road in Dartmouth late this afternoon. It was favoring one of its front feet (the one it has weight on in this photo), but didn't look obviously injured otherwise. I waited for it to move off the road before proceeding.

@hotdogsladies To which I might add this:

Or literally any song recorded by the Blues Brothers.

(Or would, modulo the appearing-in-the-episode thing.)

I’d love it if you guys gave Michael Penn a listen. He’s really special.

@hotdogsladies different set than the one I threw together, but still a great set.

Ca. mid-1990s:

Those three weird glyphs on the cover of "Ghost in the Machine" are LED 'drawings' that represent the members of the band. Squinting helps, because…

(L-R) Andy Summers, Sting, Stewart Copeland.

I've always revered this record, and it took me well over a decade to realize this insanely obvious thing.

@hotdogsladies I'm positively fascinated/enthralled by your Gentle Introduction playlist framing. Weirdly I've been running down Michael Penn and Ted Leo rabbit holes over the last few weeks myself. Haven't seen yours yet, but this would be my stab at one for Michael Penn:

OK
Small Black Box
Coal
Brave New World
Me Around
Walter Reed
Evenfall

(Also—yes, all the Rockpile.)

Short-eared Owls were out and about today, but mostly keeping their distance. Only one reasonably close fly-by during my hike.

Been futzing around reprocessing some older shots now that I have a few more tricks in my toolkit.

This one is from the covered bridge at the Shelburne Falls Museum in Vermont, nearly a decade ago now.

Huh. We’re as far removed from the rescue of the crew of Apollo 13 as the Apollo 13 rescue was from the rescue of the crew of Ernest Shackleton’s "Endurance".

Day 12 of was an outstanding tipple from Bushmills, and 's day 12 story of, I suppose, a failed break with the past, comes from Hilma Wolitzer.

The whiskey is Bushmills "Causeway Collection" 2000 Port Cask Finish. This is the best thing I've ever tasted with from Bushmills (and at over £275 a bottle, it had better be pretty great.)

@bitprophet This is the Drinks by the Dram "Premium Edition" calendar:

https://drinksbythedram.com/products/the-premium-whisky-advent-calendar

(The short story calendar is the one from Hingston & Olsen publishing. I don't think that's what you were asking about, but, for completeness' sake…)

djwtwo,
@djwtwo@mastodon.social avatar

@bitprophet I think this is the third time I've gotten this particular calendar. There's a higher repeat count this year, but still mostly new. I stick with the whisky calendars, but I've tried a few different ones both from this company and Secret Spirits.

Grey seal in profile.

This guy (gal?) was just parked off Gooseberry in the sun, head above water, looking around for the entire time I had him in view as I hiked, a solid 15 minutes.
