The show this time out is kind of about business. More specifically, the type of business and work I do. I recorded this one while I was waiting to go into a dinner meeting with the head of a Taiwan company that I have visited a few times. The meeting was hopefully to settle some business issues and just relax and have a good meal. I’m not a big fan of business over dinner. But once in awhile I get sucked into these types of things. I seem to handle it pretty well, which is probably why I get asked to do it again. Maybe I’m too good at it! Hehe! Anyway, I share a little more on what I do to make a living these days and some of the things involved there. Not a lot of great secrets or revelations in this cast. But some might find it interesting. The picture above is where the dinner meeting was at. It’s a nice place but about 45 minutes away from my home. So it was a long day. I also share a story about our dog Kaylee and her recent affinity for TV remote controls. She chewed one up this past week. At least she didn’t eat the batteries or much of it. Just kind of shredded it. I was able to find a new replacement remote online for us. I think she gets a bit lonely during the day and just was bored. As always, hope you enjoy the cast and I’ll talk to you again soon.

Yes – I’m back folks. After a longer time than I would of liked I’m back with another brief podcast that explores the recesses of my mind. First off, I was sick for a couple of weeks so got kind of behind on things. But I’m feeling good now and had a little time on my drive home today to record a new show for you. This time out I discuss something we all do every night – and that’s dream. I know not everyone has dreams they recall very well, but I’ve always been a pretty active dreamer when I sleep. I’d say about half the time I have some sort of dream that I remember the next morning. Mostly they are nice and fairly harmless dreams. But I have had some nightmares on a rare occasion. I discuss how I used to make myself dream certain things when I was a kid growing up. Later on in life my dreams tended to just be the typical what was on my mind at the time I went to sleep. I’ve had some classic type dreams like flying ones too. I share a few of my more memorable dreams that I have had. Hope you enjoy the podcast and please comment here or email and let me know about your dreams.
Songs on this show:
Intro – “Together in Electric Dreams” – by Giorgio Moroder with Philip Oakley
Outro – “Electric Dreams” – by PP Arnold
Finally got some time driving home today to record a new, short Attic show. This time out I discuss the recent sad news of the death of actor Heath Ledger. I’d always enjoyed his work and it’s really a shame to lose someone so talented and young. I’m looking forward to seeing one of his final performances as the Joker in the new “Batman” film this coming summer. When things like this happen it make me appreciate life even more. We really have such a short time on this planet we should try and make the most of it and appreciate it every day. I also chat a little about how much I am enjoying the new cop show “Life.” The main character is quirky and fun to watch. He has an interesting Zen like attitude about the world around him which is refreshing. I’ve been catching up with it on NBC’s new site called HULU. Take a look when you get the chance. That’s about it for this time out folks. Hope you enjoyed this show and I’ll talk to you again soon.
Songs on this show:
Intro – “I’ll be OK” – by McFly

On this podcast I have a little adventure out for my lunch break. First, a trip to my favorite coney dog restaurant for a couple of greats coney’s. Then it’s on to my favorite comic shop (voted # 1 in Detroit). I discuss the books I picked up this week and a little on comics in general. Not as many books came out this week in the group I normally buy. Got a couple of new things to check out. The new Marvel “Hulk” book featuring a Red Hulk just came out today with issue # 1 and that looks cool. Never read Hulk much in the past but I thought I’d pick up this new book and jump in. Another new comic being worked on my J. M. Straczynski came out called “The Twelve.” It’s an outer space adventure comic and I’m anxious to read it. I go over a few other books as well that I picked up. Hope you enjoyed this show. I had fun!

Just a little show in the car on the road today as I do some post Christmas errands. I chat about the new movie “National Treasure: Book of Secrets” that I saw today with my friend Mark. I liked it quite a bit. These are a fun series of movies. Then I talk a little about some Christmas things I received and the fun of spending holiday gift cards. I wrap up the show at the end with how after Christmas is sort of like the relaxing time after a wedding at a reception. The tough part is over and now we can all relax. Oh and email me your New Year’s resolutions – if you do that sort of thing. Until next time, enjoy the rest of 2007!
Songs on this show:
Intro – “Aurora” – by Lapush
Outro – “Baby, it’s Cold Outside” – by Leon Redbone & Zooey Daschanel
Just put up a little show I recorded this afternoon in the car on the way to the dentist. I chat about all the snow we recently got here in Michigan and how bad the city of Detroit ignores the roads. They seem to think cars are snow plows! It was pretty bad yesterday morning on the way to work. I also comment a little bit on global warming and my thoughts on that. Nothing too heavy but I think you might find it interesting. Getting closer to Christmas now and I hope to do another “Attic” show on or around the big day! Take care until then!
Songs on this show:
Intro – “Blind” – by Mega Bass
Outro – “The Start of Something” – by Voxtrot
On this new show I get a bit nostalgic and talk about days gone by and the upcoming holidays. It seems there are days I long for a simpler time and life perhaps. I think it’s important to slow down a bit at this busy time and enjoy what really matters – visiting with friends and family. I hope you enjoy this new show and a further look into my mind. Hehe! (Note: The picture of “Edgewater Park” is a place I went to many times growing up in Detroit. We lived close enough to walk to it. Ah, those were the days.)
Songs on this show:
Intro – “Life in a Northern Town” – by The Dream Academy
Outro – “Old Days” – by Chicago
Just put up another podcast about some of my experiences on last week’s Black Friday. Had a few interesting things happen. I generally don’t go out much on this day due to the crowds but this year I kind of had to go out – at least for some of it. Hope you enjoy my thoughts on this subject.
Songs on this show:
Intro – “Young Folks” – by Peter Bjorn and John
Outro – “Mad World” – by Gary Jules
Another new show recorded today on my drive home from work. I discuss information overload in my life and in society. It seems we are being bombarded with information all the time these days. From so many sources, including more recent things like email and the Internet. I talk about this and some ideas maybe to help relieve the information overload once in awhile for all of us. Hope you enjoy the show and feel free to comment here.
Songs on this show:
Intro – “Mr. Roboto” – by Styx
Outro – “Internet” – by The Computer
I recorded this podcast mostly in the car during a trip to the Apple store to look at iMacs a couple of days ago on my birthday. I’ve always been a PC guy, but those iMacs are tempting. Tune in and see how it all turned out.

Intro: “Birthday” by The Beatles, Outro: “Back in your head” by Tegan & Sara
