    Yes the light display looked good above….really neat. We are in football playoff mania now, with the NFL and the College Champ coming up soon too.

    Good times. I enjoy both sports. I also like some college basketball. I used to like the NBA back in the old days, but I just can’t get into it with today’s type of game.

    Good luck to those that still have a team in the mix.

    Your Seahawks are looking pretty dominant right now....oldmanram. Up by 27 to 6. My Broncos won earlier.

    WELL....I have never been a Broncos fan. But....I followed Bo Nix for two years when he was a Duck. I saw a lot of him and thought he was SEVERELY underestimated by the media and scouts going into the pro draft. My view of him was that he could make all the throws needed as a pro......and.....he had that unique ability to "WIN" that some rare people have. He has definately shown that so far this year.....yet the media continues to constantly disrespect him and his ability.

    I am not a card collector....but.....I put together a little collection of PSA 10 rookie cards on Nix.....just because I had a strong feeling that he would be much more successful than anyone realized in the NFL. In as lot of ways he reminded me of Brady. So I have long term money riding on him with my PSA 10 graded rookie cards.

    BUMMER.....LOL. So much for my rookie card strategy.....for now. Nix broke his ankle late in the game and will have surgery tomorrow.

    I have a busy week next week.

    On Monday I have a mid morning meeting with a studio engineer. I have some good solid material from the primary national/international touring band that I played with. I want to produce it into a full concert CD.

    I will take the material in to him, download it onto his computer, and discuss with him my plan for mixing and mastering the material. I am hopeful he will be just what I need for this job...since he was recommended by a friend that I trust who is part of the full time road crew for a Grammy winning group. Since the raw material is in pretty good shape I expect that the engineer and I can get this live CD produced into final form in about 10-12 hours of studio time.

    After it is done I will be sending it to the record label that we were under at the time of the concert....and...hopefully they will want to use it. I have been putting this project off for a couple of years now.

    I will also be in the studio with a different band tomorrow (Sunday)..... all afternoon.

    On Tuesday I have to go to Dallas with an art friend. We each have paintings that will be in a museum exhibition in the Dallas area starting in a few weeks. We need to get the paintings delivered so they will be there when they hang the exhibit in about ten days.

    Next Sunday I have another art event that I have to attend in the afternoon....being put on by a statewide art group that I am on the Board of Directors.

    SO.....I will not be around much on Monday or Tuesday.

    I always welcome any excuse to IGNORE the markets.
