| Jacob and the red guitar. |
Our son Jacob plays piano, but has recently started to play guitar.
Randy and I were best friends in high school. His older brother Mike played guitar in several bands. Randy and I used to get into bars by carrying band equipment in before the shows and we would just stay for the rest of the night. Mike is still legend in my memory as a guitar player and we felt cooler than we actually were just by being associated with him.

 One thing about this holiday season that really jerked my chain (to borrow a cliché) was the Elder’s Christmas Party held at the Convention Center of the Black Bear Casino, not all of it but just one part.
We usually avoid all things Christmas in this family because we don’t celebrate that holiday. We do celebrate people passing out money and a free meal however so we went to the Bear.
(Note to self: Don’t go looking for Playstations in December where
people carry and use pepper spray, push and shove, or hold up people in
parking lots.)
We motored to the Bear and signed up for the goodies, I was given an
envelope that contained 25 bucks in greenbacks, a coupon good for ten
more and a ticket for the drawing for baskets full of goods prepared by
the Reservation employees.

 What I have long feared has come to pass. I’m gonna have to update my FaceBook status as 1b. (See below). It was not so long ago that I would shudder at the very thought of unattractive a.k.a. sensible clothing. I curled up in a fetal position in bed, put the blankets over my head and issued feeble, irregular whimpers. What is this awful thing? I have gone feral. First sign: Ah-hem! I am now the proud owner of a ‘Carhartt’ winter jacket, stout ‘kamik’ winter boots, an orange vest, two orange hats and snow pants, thermal drawers plus lime green reflector gloves with pigskin palm and fingers. The strange thing is; I’m just happy! How, you ask, did this all come about?
