Look! A Post!

I'm not motivated anymore. Posting here is a waste of time for me. I've got too much other stuff going on. I know that I have a couple of regular readers, the rest of you...I don't know what your gig is. I get about 80 visits a week, that is when I'm keeping it all up to date. And I know it's not the same two people coming in 40 times each every 7 days, so what gives?

I guess the content is not compelling enough to move the reader. I know, sometimes it's pretty boring (I never claimed that it wasn't). But when I get into the guts of a subject, no one seems to really care much about that either. No, I'm not on a pity wagon, I actually don't care. I guess the only thing that bothers me is that I read other blogs hosted by some who couldn't write their way out of a paper bag, have no creativity and their posts are consistantly full of comments. Some of these sites are made of stuff you wouldn't want your kids reading, yet people respond.

I wanted more than a diary. I could keep that in a stupid little book in my sock drawer. I'm considering the big "d" here. That way I'd only have DFW Acoustics to deal with. I've actually discovered some pretty flattering comments on that site from place to place.

So what do you think? Does anyone care? Hello?

Traveling

I'm sitting in a hotel in Austin tonight. It's been a long day. It's as hot here as it is in Dallas. I dono, I always think of Austin as the gateway to the "hill country" with fresh air and pure water. The truth is, it's a medium size city with traffic problems, heat and LOTS of weirdos. I've never been a fan of this place. I guess because when I hear folks talk about it, I think of Tulsa. It's a cool "okie" town with lots of art, sports and culture as well.

I was assisting at a job here today where Kurt Russell was doing some sound stage work. I was asked if I had seen him, but I hadn't. I spent the majority of midday in the break room watching Austin television. I'm not impressed.

I head out to the TAB tomorrow for the floor. I'm gonna see what's new and what I can get in to. Tons of stuff there that's just waiting for us.

Thoughts on Blogging

Ok, some deeper stuff.

It blows me away the way in which some people throw their entire lives out on their blogs. What was the original intention of them? Is that it? I figure that they are more of a reflection on the person who pens them. Art, science, politics, rants, but personal stuff? That scares me. The worlds to weird now. Keep your life to your family and very close friends, don't publish it for the entire world to see.

I know 5stringking goes every which way. Actually I enjoy dfwacoustics more. It is better outfitted for what I'm about. I struggle here from time to time, like now. This, I guess, is a rant.

I'm glad you are reading this, whomever you may be. But don't look for anything too personal. I can get in to some digital imaging, music, some light rants based on opinion, but the rest of that stuff stays in my head or closer to me than to be hung out like long johns on a hot summer day. Ye ha!
