Keep Moving Forward
Here’s a new twist on woodwork & home improvement. I realized when we had a get together at our place a few weeks ago, that people don’t seem to give paint sticks a second thought. They may
have an old one with dried paint laying under the cobwebs in the garage or basement. Around here, there is always a supply ready to use – for nearly everything – except paint!
This may sound bizarre but hear me out. You’ll be wishing you had a paint stick handy on your next repair project…

My auto drip coffee maker is on a Christmas tree timer on the kitchen counter. It fires itself up around 5:30 a.m., and runs continuously on weekends till 8:30 p.m. More often than not, I override the timer to get a late cup. I’m a simple man so my go to is the cheapest stuff I can find in bulk at Costco Warehouse. I also have this thing where I drink the cup to just below 1/4 full, then refill it. Keeps the temperature to my liking. Apparently that’s weird. [Read more…]
My name is Brian. This is my project.
This is my attempt to find solace in a world where everyone else is crazy. Which by definition, makes me the crazy one. Here I present my point-of-view and opinion on whatever comes to mind. I don’t even know what will appear here. I will write (and rant) as my soul stirs me. [Read more…]
