Hi There



Todays Adventure: Setting up this blog
Today’s music: Johnny Clegg & Savuka – Shadowman
It would be nice if everyday could be an adventure. And everyday is  an adventure. Maybe it ain’t surfing a glass face or jumping out of a plane, but try crossing the street down town, mid-block.
For myself, I hope this blog (just the acts of figuring out what to write, and then typing it out) will help me see all those little adventures.
Which isn’t to say that I’m going to skip the bigger adventures. Maybe it will be grand – a trip to Portland OR to go bungee jumping off a bridge (http://www.bungee.com/bzapp/bungee_masters/bridge.html), maybe it will be something as simple as taking my girl on a picnic (and she could use a break – might have to move that up the list), and it may be as stupid as making u-turns on I-87. Or running under a moving truck. Again.
Stupid can be lots of fun. And I’m a master of stupid fun….
Since this is my first post, I think I’ll stop here. Next time, maybe something about music.
I’ll tell you about the first time I took a flight to see a band. Even though they were never going to be there in the first place…
