Here's Charlie!

Charlie is our new pup we got on Saturday. She is a one year old, pit bull mix, and she's been through a lot. Melissa and I never would have thought about owning a pit bull, but she was too sweet for us to pass up. Charlie was rescued from a drug dealer who had chained her to a tree with another dog without any food. Despite all that, she remained a sweet dog. She was then adopted by a lady who shortly thereafter committed suicide, so she went back to the rescue. The second time she was adopted, the person just could not devote the time to take care of her and returned her to the as well. Fast forward to April 27th. Melissa and I went to PetSmart to buy new nail clippers for our other dog, Chip. Like Melissa says, "we came here for nail clippers, and left with nail clippers and a dog." Charlie is surprisingly sensitive, and full of energy. At one point, when Chip was displaying his dominance, we could have sworn she was crying. When I tell people we got a pit bull mix, I see many discouraging faces. Once again the media has caused a stigma to be placed on the pit bull breed. Just like any other breed of dog, if you teach it to be mean, it will. We are very fortunate to have such a sweet and loving dog. I imagine a lot of people's views on pit bulls will change after meeting Charlie.

Karma and more.

I do believe in Karma, but probably in its simplest form. I try to live my life with the thought of doing what's right, and that it is simply the right way to live. Today, I feel like I'm missing something, or maybe that there is more to Karma than what I once thought. One of my co-workers is a big believer in Karma. She may even take it to extremes, but it doesn't bother me because that's what she believes. I've also feel like I may have misjudged her upon first working with her, and I just feel awful about that. Thankfully, I've had some conversations with her that leads me to believe that she is a totally different person. She is a sweet lady, and wants the best for us. I think we can learn a lesson from my co-worker, and Karma. I'm glad I did.

"Good Luck Is Just Good Luck"

Good luck is just good luck and that seems to be what's happening for me when it comes to the Crowes. Back in May, the Black Crowes played the Tabernacle here in Atlanta and I was fortunate enough for them to add a fourth show which I was able to attend. Having only seen them at Music Midtown once before the stage was set for a great show. The Crowes delivered! I've always been a fan, but I had never been to a show which is blasphemy in Black Crowes land. So when I received the email for the "One Night Only" show at the Fox, I couldn't miss it. I've got tickets and I'm counting the days until the show. This time I will bring my camera and be sure to get some good pics which I will post on the site. Hopefully this good luck will cotinue and it will be a great show, with great tunes, and great pics!

Muddy & The Wolf

Everyone who knows me, knows that I'm a huge blues fan. Just like the old days, the Blues have taken somewhat of a backseat to Rock N' Roll. In my case, more specifically, the Black Crowes. I stumbled across this album at a music store, but bought it online for the best price. This album is the blues at its best. Two of the greats joined with the likes other blues and rock heroes. Eric Clapton, Steve Winwood, Bill Wyman, Charlie Watts, Paul Butterfield, Mike Bloomfield, Otis Spann, Hubert Sumlin, and Dick Dunn join the greats on this one. There is even a rehearsal track with Howlin' Wolf. Its great to hear these fantastic musicians talk about how the song will be recorded. This is Chicago Blues at its best, and will remain one of my favorites of all time.
