I’m not vegan myself, but I’ve got to plug a good friend of mine’s food blog. If you’re interested in some vegan versions of Chicago food staples, you’re in for a treat.

I can’t say I have any peers that say music use to be better. I hardly find music to be stagnant now, hell a lot of the recent pop music has had some things that have resonated with me and I’m a dude in my 30s. The thing is you can’t let yourself stagnate. I am a music lover who is always looking for something new and different. With the internet and recording being so accessible there are more artists being able to put their work out there than ever. Even then, I am still going back to music of my youth and still enjoying most of it. My parent’s music was never went away- I’m digging even deeper into their record crates and finding the stuff they weren’t quite fond of and finding a lot of things I enjoy. Open your ears, the birds are singing and bells are ringing. You just have to go to the woods or the town square to hear them some times.

I’ve grown indoors for personal medical use on a very small scale and you can run into pest problems like aphids, fungus gnats, spider mites and mold. There are some natural solutions but I don’t think they are quite effective at an industrial scale. All of that aside, people should NOT have to worry about consuming pesticides be it in food or drugs.

Barney’s movie had heart, but Football in the Groin had football in the groin

I feel your pain. I found fossil’s first gen hybrid smart watch on a clearance rack for $40 and made an impulse purchase. I loved it! It was a totally analog watch face but it would vibrate when I got a notification on my phone. I could set it to go to different hand movements when certain contacts messaged me. I loved that I could control my music to pause, skip songs and change volume on my wrists rather than dig in my pocket for my phone. It ran on a regular watch battery and when it eventually died I went to replace the battery it never came back to life.

I listen to so many different kinds of music so it is hard to nail down a favorite. Instead I’ll give you the most recent artist I saw live-Jazz guitarist Julian Lage. I saw his trio in Chicago last night and it was an unreal experience with how tight the group was. Truly masters of their craft. Here is one of my favorite tracks of his “Tributary”
