It's At The End of the Hall...

Sometimes I miss California. No, really, sometimes I do. And then�  California calls me and I remember why I not only don�t really miss it, I  yearn for the day when our divorce is 100% complete. Peter Strzok has  been fired by the FBI. Standby for Talking heads telling you why this is  both good and bad and bi-partisan and political. But there is really  bad news today. We�re about to lose a musical icon.


So... a couple of housekeeping  things first. I will only be here for the show today and tomorrow (Tuesday). On  Wednesday, Ben and I are headed out for a "Guys" day in Oregon with my Brotherin  and his son. We'll be home very late that night, so probably not conducive to  doing a Thursday show. and on Friday we will be quite busy getting packed up for  vacation.

I will be gone all of the next  week, on a vacation that is shaping up to be EPIC. Two full days in Yellowstone.  A full day in Little Piney Creek, another full day at Little Big Horn, and then,  the cherry on top, we will be travelling to a remote part of Eastern Montana to  visit  my favorite paleontologist at an actual dinosaur dig!

Can you tell that I am jazzed  about the trip?

The Peoples Demokratick Republick  of Kalifornia informed my last Friday that there were very upset that I had not  paid my vehicle registration for 2017. In fact, the DMV was so upset that they  requested that the Franchise Tax Board track me down and  threaten to take legal action against me to force me to pay the  registration fees.

Now... I will say this: the FTB  folks are a lot more reasonable and friendly to talk to than the DMV. Once they  realized what was actually going on, they were actually sort of apologetic.  Except they were insistent on one thing: That I personally call the DMV and tell  them that I moved a while ago. I'll get right on that...

Speaking of the DMV, they made  the news a lot on Friday, with three separate stories. First up, the DMV lines  are so long that people are resorting to  stealing license plates rather than wait. second, the State Legislature  seemingly doesn't think that the lines are bad enough to  warrant an audit. thirdly, it turns out the reason the Legislators don't  care about the lines is because they personally  don't have to stand in them. You know, like the little people they  serve. Good news! The press is now letting us know that  we should be upset about the whole thing...
