Finido Benido

Chris GoeringChris Goering

Finished. Coursework for the PhD. I am sitting in my last class ever typing this.

No worries Steve. I made it to class this AM and finished my take home final with 1 minute to spare. What a time at Duffy’s last night! It was nice to play for a few more people there. Hats off to our friend Rob for bringing several friends from KC.

It felt great to actually play a gig yesterday. I was singing Mike McClure yesterday walking home from class and felt like I was preparing to play a football game.

Dismissed our innocence for original sin.
Mama, mama don’t make me go.

Am out of here!

Poolside

Just returned from a quick Kansas City trip

Thanks to Jordan for the place to stay and the Southern hospitality

Aaron and I played with Dusty and Scott (from the Dirty Boot Band) by the pool

Nice job Dusty on scheduling an outdoor’s show on the hottest day of the year

We did have three fans that stayed the whole time

The plug in kind

See you at Duffy’s or Heart Attack Jack’s this week

Know what a phrase is you never want to hear while walking into a bar?
"Someone call 911"
More on that to come.

Nuevo Coche

That’s spanish for new car!!! It cost me my soul (what was left), my first born, and a pint of blood but Bobbie and I bought a new van. It was extremely funny watching the expression on the car dealers’ faces as two twenty-somethings asked to see the mini-vans. Any, here’s a pic. July 19th is coming up, see you at Duffy’s!

DNA Sample

Chris GoeringChris Goering

Just ventured to the public library. The only piece of my information that they don’t currently have is DNA. Of course they do have my drver’s license, birthdate, and social security number not to mention height, weight, eye color…

I am sure G dub can get them my DNA too.

The whole concept of a library is neat. Here, let us give you 200 dollars worth of books, CD’s, DVD’s and you can promise to bring it back.

It is nearly a socialist concept and doesn’t really seem to fit our capitalistic country.

OK, this is obviously not going anywhere productive so I will stop.
