Yo. Saw an awesome show by Heiruspecs last night at the Triple Rock Social Club. Proof this crew is still invigorating the St. Paul hip hop scene....am anxiously awaiting their next album. The T Rock is a pretty damn good venue for this group, and the fluidity - broadly construed - of the crowd made for a relaxed, chillz evening of fine wine and rhyme. And - to think - we all got to see Twinkie freestyle on his birthday, no less!
Here's a tasty-taste for those unawares of Felix and the gang:

Goofus...ness
Hello dear readers....
Apologies for my silence this week...just now got back from some time on the road, braving 110 degree heat, tornado warnings, lightening strikes, the cold driven rain, just plain lots of driving, and too damn many people on planes.
Here's something to tide you over until the next post, gladly supplied by my buddy Squonk. Notice his noodle:

Incipit
Ah....the first blog post.
What to say...what to say. Well, I'm not going to go into a lot of detail about myself, my likes, loves, dislikes, kinks, freaks, and foods...cause I'm sure all that will come out over the course of this thing. Which is good.
And I'm not going to say what this blog is going to be about....because that's kind of the point of creating it, right dear reader? I suppose vintage motorcycles, bluegrass, ultra trail running, underground/lyrical hiphop, cowboy culture, home brewing, Latin American boondoggles, Holy Land archaeology, Celtic reels, southern barbeque, northern and walleye fishing, mountain biking, Minnesota winters, California summers, open source software, single source rivers, desert flora ruminations, and some combination thereof will all find a place at somepoint. Or not. Which is also good.
So I guess I'll just start with something that's on my mind.
31 miles. Of running. On trails. In a day. I recently applied - and got entered - into The McKenzie River Trail Run. A gorgeous, meandering 50K race through southern Oregon - sounds about perfect to me. It's certainly the longest I'll have ever continuously run...assuming that a) my running will be continuous and b) the training alone doesn't kill me, and I thus forfeit any opportunity for continuity. So, dear reader, I suppose I'll be regailing you with stories and updates on my training program for this race throughout the summer.
I'm envisioning the race will be something like the following:
