    Proceeds from Saturday's Junefest show will benefit Relay for Life

    The details have solidified for Saturday’s Junefest show. The show will start at 8 p.m. at the Peace Treaty Pageant Grounds east of Medicine Lodge on Highway 160, south of the golf course. The tickets – available at the show – will be $5 and will directly benefit Relay for Life.

    The show will feature special guest Anthony Farrar. Anthony opened our last show at Mike’s in Medicine Lodge and demonstrated that he’s a very solid performer with some good originals.

    On an unrelated matter, as I was investigating the exact layout of the pageant grounds, I checked and was surprised to find that Google Maps is now sporting high resolution satellite imagery of Barber County. I started looking for our fields and as I was panning towards Sharon, I found the following image.

    sharon

    Now I’m not criticizing – I’m sure the farmer (a friend) had good reason for random-looking patterns. He was most likely preventing the dirt from blowing or trying to find a place that wasn’t too wet to work. The point is that no longer is the way we work fields a private matter. Google’s incorporation of this kind of imagery means that our farming habits are now available for all to see.

  • I don’t know why I even try to use cox.com. Every time I do, I just get upset with the obscenely-unusable interface. #
  • If I sold cable TV, I’ll bet one of the things I’d make available on my website is which channels I offered and how much they cost. #cox #
  • RT @dustingooding: @randomragenet And what the heck is red matter? Sounds like midichlorians to me… #
  • Star Trek’s red matter == Star Wars midichlorians. When writers aren’t creative enough for science fiction, you get pseudoscience-fiction. #
  • Looking forward to turning in my Cox cable box. Can’t decide if I’m man enough to try 100% Hulu or if I need basic cable for E!. #
  • Latest Auctioneer magazine: “Aaron Traffas…started a website that lists all Auctioneers…on Twitter” but didn’t name auctioneertweet.com. #
  • RT @dN0t: RT @dkitsov: Why do people still list MS Office as a skill on their resume? #
  • Zune Social http://ff.im/2NRhj #

  • Fighting either some serious malware or a really corrupted XP install…too early to tell which. #
  • @stbain No taskbar, a ton of services not running, dependency errors when I try to start the services, unable to view some controls, + more in reply to stbain #
  • @traffas I could simply reinstall, but it has me intrigued. I usually handle malware with routine poise and ease…I’m really impressed. in reply to traffas #
  • @dN0t lol. Clicked the wrong Avatar in Tweetdeck. I’m getting my ass kicked by Twitter clients today. in reply to dN0t #
  • And I just thought I’d capitalize ‘avatar’ just for good measure. #
  • @stbain Task manager is the only way I can run programs without taskbar. Could be botched SP3 install, but it’s been working. It’s quite fun in reply to stbain #
  • @stbain First thing I tried. I’m working on getting policies and permissions restored so I can start the missing core services. Bad hijack. in reply to stbain #

  • @dN0t Like aluminum siding from Leap of Faith? Not much leeway in a 30 pre-recorded radio drop. I’d love to play at the auction, though! in reply to dN0t #
  • @traffas You’d be amazed at some of the filler words I can work in. It’s almost cheating, as an auctioneer. in reply to traffas #

  • Bar hopping in Fayetteville #

    Not a huge crowd
    Not a drinking crowd
    Sometimes these shows are fun
    You can play 100% originals
    No drunk guy asking for Carney Man
    Or worse…Luke Bryan…Eric Church…

    Reese Neal played last night with us at the show
    Very talented songwriter with a completely different style
    A master of his falsetto
    He’s a vocal dead-ringer for Ryan Adams
    He gave me his CD
    I’m looking forward to actually listening to it on the drive home

    G and I are off to find some breakfast
    Then it’s studio time at East Hall Recording Studio
    Saw the proprietor playing bass in Hot Shot Karate
    Last night at the Boom Boom Room here in Fayetteville
    Probably not going to start recording before noon

    Here’s a video for today
    Thanks to Dream Not of Today for the Twitter-tip on this one
