An old band-mate and friend of mine wrote to tell me that there is another Dr. Chaos, who was just received a prison sentence for computer-cracking.

Last week started out with a road-trip to hell, as the car I was driving (my Dad's old jeep) broke down coming off the Bay Bridge into San Francisco. I coasted down the 5th Street offramp, then stewed for 3 hours

The snow was pretty, & in all ways better than A hurricane. 
Well, I went booze-shopping as planned. Bought several bottles of wine, and a very nice Irish whiskey: Knappogue Castle 1994. So, MrPinstripeSuit, you need to come over and have a shot with me, before I finish the bottle myself!
Also bought a bottle of Van Gogh Dutch Chocolate Vodka, to bring to a party with my Russian music friends. The consensus (as the last...

Dutch Chocolate Vodka? I gotta get some of that!

I did have quite a lot of tasting (but samples of more are always welcome - Mail me some!) However... I am extremely picky with food/drinks/everything_else. Small differences have huge consequences.

I need to go booze-shopping. I'm out of bourbon, scotch, and irish, almost out of tequila, and down two or three bottles of wine. Fortunately, I still have plenty of Guinness!

That latter is part of a dance production to be performed next Spring, which will feature original music by moi, and by some of my Slow Djinn Fez bandmates. With any luck I'll...

Hi! I just moved to Reno & am looking to make new friends. We need a bee smiley here. I've been a busy little one.

But this Wednesday past I delivered a CD of rhythm tracks for a dance production I'm involved with. Then yesterday (Thursday), we in Slow Djinn Fez performed...

From Dublin to Donegal
No word from my colleague whose parents are from New Orleans. Left messages expressing concern, but told him he need not call back. Presume that his parents evacuated early and so are okay, but will have to check again later.
Day 12, evening, Sligo. Stopped by sessiuns at Foley's and Earley's bars. Younger musicians at Foley's, but bar was very small and crowded. Four or...

i bet you don't miss the winters here in new england.
Actually managed to get out tonight for dinner in boston, so it kind of made up for my otherwise unproductive weekend.
Hope you had a good birthday!
