My Agent called & said the Record Company would like me to do a follow-up to my classic 2006 CD...

Blaze, the Producer, told me to come up with three songs to do...(ONLY THREE?!?!)

• Anybody have a suggestion on the songs?

Blaze also said this Session may involve Video! So...

• I need to get to The Gym!!!

Blaze also said he wants this done Pronto...

• PS...The 2006 Classic CD is still available & On Sale for Just $9.99!  But Wait!!! If you order in the next 12 Years you will also receive an autographed photo of The Pea!!! in his Zippered Front Hooded UCLA sweatshirt taken in his basement in Roxborough, Pa!!!

Did you know that Timmy can Draw?

There is NO way I could draw something (what some people would call Graffiti) like this! And this is not a Full Canvas of his entire work! I am Blown away...

He Always Wanted To Be A Banker !!!

Members 1st newest Teller...Shady McCoy!

GAMES...I cannot get anyone here to play GAMES. I may have to go to the American Legion Hall & bring some old guys to my place...

Steve K buys all his guitars & other stuff on Ebay.

I have something I want to buy on Ebay and they ask for my account name & number. Does anyone else out there buy stuff on Ebay? Is it OK to do so? Should I establish an account?

Jason now owns this "machine" to customize your ABO (Anybody But Obama) Bumper Stickers!

He is now the Proud Owner of a "CINTIQ 24HD" thigamajig...!

TJ tossed one of these!!! It was leaking oil stains on his driveway...

• "Pitchers and catchers are reporting all over Florida and Arizona this weekend, but it's hard to imagine anyone making a cooler arrival than Roy Halladay. The Philadelphia Phillies ace sped into Clearwater on Saturday in a classic hot rod"....Roy says he bought it from a guy named TJ while he & his wife were touring the Amish countryside. Roy also said he is not sure if TJ was Amish, cause he looked Irish...all Roy thought was...TJ wants to Sell & Roy wants to Buy!
• Both TJ & Roy feel they made a "WIN/WIN" deal...

Me...TJ...& "The Headliner" @ the front door of the Mermaid Inn in Chestnut Hill, Phila Pa

MLB has turned down the Astros request to wear their original jersey for two games in 2012

...just like The Tampa Bay Smokers were not permitted to include the cigar! I also read that a museum in England has removed Paul's cigarette from their Abbey Road display!

The Lighting could be improved, but other than that I thought The Mermaid Inn was Great!

...it was not the "dungy" place I was lead to believe by reading comments on the Web. Yes Folks, I was out & about until about 12:45AM last night! Uncle TJ & myself went to check out "Mike McKendry & Friends" @ The Mermaid Inn.

• I am not sure how many people realize what a 'Coup Michael pulled off here...

A little more than a year ago he got introduced to "The Chestnut Hill/Mt Airy Underground" by a guy that was subbing on Bass for the BM's. Next thing you know The Cooker is Prowling around not only "The Inn"...but also "The Irish Center" for nightly Jam Sessions! He told me then...

• Pea! It is not an easy place to get to be a Headliner...but I will get Eddie & myself there!" He actually said he is on a QUEST!

Bottom line? Not only have the BM's Rocked the place, but The Cooker has gone to his Individualistic Game and subjugated certain Mermaid Legends to "Back-ups"!!!

Phila College Hoops Tournament Idea...

Just heard an interesting idea on WIP radio. A pre-season basketball tournament with Philadelphia area colleges. Here are some of the details... talk amongst yourselves... could it work? Would people get greedy and move it to Wells Fargo Center and lose all the atmosphere? * Temple, St. Joe's, LaSalle, Villanova, Penn, U. of Delaware, Penn State, and Drexel * all games played at the Palestra * how would you seed the teams? Here are my ideas: 1. Temple 2. St. Joe's 3. LaSalle 4. Drexel 5. U. of D 6. Villanova 7. Penn 8. Penn State

The Lincoln Highway...

U.S. Route 30 (US 30) is an east–west main route of the system of United States Numbered Highways, with the highway traveling across the northerntier of the country. It is the third longest U.S. route, after U.S. Route 20 and U.S. Route 6. The western end of the highway is at Astoria, Oregon; the eastern end is in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Despite long stretches of parallel and concurrent Interstate Highways, it has managed to avoid the decommissioning that has happened to other long haul routes such as U.S. Route 66.

Much of the historic Lincoln Highway, the first road across America (from New York City to San Francisco), became part of US 30; it is still known by that name in many areas.

• Looks like quite a ride !

...anybody want to Go with Me???

Bill & Seana did the 20's this week & Sam & Kelly did the 80's...

The Most Difficult Man to Get On The Phone!

Since moving to Lancaster, the Pea has oficially become the most difficult person to get on the phone. I feel like we are using cans and string. $%^&@#$%^&*()#$%^ Does anyone else have this issue when trying to call their father?

On February 9, 1964 ... a reminder

What is the real story around this event? Is it true that there was a priest at our house that Sunday and it almost made us miss this moment? I was 8 years old...

These guys are in BIG Trouble...

"Oliva ( the spokeswoman) said the investigation found that the SS symbol was meant to identify the Marines as scout snipers, not Nazis, but was nonetheless not acceptable. Ergo...they are in Deep doo-doo!


The Politically Correct Police are on the case...do these guys look like Nazis?

The Proper Man/Woman Wintertime Scarfing...
