This blog was created to give a glimpse into the various and sundry spectacular shenanigans of the community of musicians/supporters of Slingshot Records, LLC.
I was stretching one day, laying flat on my back with my legs up and feet together in the air. My 3 year old, being so doggone cute walked by, stopped, looked at my feet and said, “Hello, Mr. Giraffe.” Something told me that day that she’d have quite an imagination. And she does!
One night, my friend, Sherry, decided that her son William, then about 6, should say his prayers from the heart instead of the standard child prayer “Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep…” She said, “William, you need to say your prayers yourself, from your heart.”
He said, “What do you mean?”
“Well, you thank God […]
My sweet little niece is going through the early stages of puberty. My mom said she had started acting up a little, being very moody, crying and all, and not really keeping up in school. Which is unlike her. An aunt, who lives with her was concerned one day when my niece had […]
“The thing crumped right up.” My cousin’s husband was not referring to the dance – he was talking about a car that he could not get to crank… that is until my uncle, who apparently had the “good wrench” touch came along and did his magic. Then all was right with the world again. […]

The wife and I were browsing You Tube the other day and ran across clip of Carrie Underwood singing Skid Row’s “I remember you.” Dang, she sings it a little better than Mr. Bach. No disrespect to him — his voice is an amazing blend of whiskey throated rocker with clear as […]
I was just checking one of the myspace sites that’s a friend of REV21. It’s an X-porn star. Her site is packed with sexual addiction recovery info, articles, links to other porn recovery sites, etc.
One display caught my attention… and brought it all home.
She has a photo slide show created called “In loving […]
Back in the days of my telecommunications career, I used to frequently climb telephone poles for repair work, new installations, disconnects, etc. This event involved a service order that my buddy, J.C. and I were to work on was at Fort Jackson, SC. At that time, both of us worked for RCA, who […]
I read the article in Billboard where Trent Reznor says he’s thinking about using the marketing model that Radiohead launched. $5 per CD. It makes perfect sense.
Now, with internet distribution we can charge $5 - $7 per CD because there’s no need for a retailer or distributor. That works our to about .50 […]
I know Ron Paul is considered to be a long-shot candidate at the moment, but I heard he’s making some big gains this week. I’ve done some investigating to see if he’s “all that.”
Some general info that I found:
“The Texas libertarian’s rise in the polls and in fundraising proves that a small but passionate […]
