A loyal blogging friend nominated me for the dragon loyalty award and even though I am not going to really do this award to pass it on in the prescribed way –it will generate a post and has already generated a sketch.
I sketched for an hour-just me and my imagination—I wanted to get the feeling of meeting a dragon and then wondering what to do about the slaying part. I don’t wish ill on any creature and even though dragons have a bad reputation—–getting rid of them is always a tricky thing.
I don’t know where it came from and I don’t know if I am up to the task.
And does this dragon really need to go anyway?
Enough about my conflicted soul and back to the award that I am not doing.
Loyalty is a rare and special thing – I am mentioning two bloggers that have been with me through thick and thin.
Mike http://mikeladano.com/ always drops by and like the friendly neighbor in any good sitcom-the show simply can’t go on without him- so I thank you my friend.
And also http://peacelovegreatcountrymusic.com/ who nominated me for this award-I thank her very much for the support because there was a long time that I was writing and felt I could not write well enough to stay here on WordPress. It is ironic that a country music fan would help keep a rock fan afloat-but she always does.
I don’t think I would have been out here long enough to gather all these followers without a couple good people in my corner. I really mean that.
Now I will do the 7 things about me part.
- I listen to hip hop when working out- Biggie for cardio and Slim Shady for weights.
- I am fascinated by birds that migrate enough that it affects my driving.
- I am not a good driver.
- When I look at the stars –I imagine that I am on a big rock hurling through space.
- I don’t get “The three Stooges”.
- When choosing between cheap beer and no beer- I go thirsty.
- Skating in hockey skates is pure joy.
Next post I will be getting back to the music
For now I will leave you with Queen.Dragon Attack

Cheers from the cave!

Queen!! The best bunch of brilliant musicians to ever walk out on stage!
They were something when Freddie was around!
Incredible! But I also meant their education and degrees, their composing for the series Highlander, etc, etc. The list goes on and on and…..
Sometimes it’s amazing how a song can cheer up your boring day. Thanks for some great Queen!
Glad you like it and I second that!
congrats!
Thanks! Even if i only do them half speed-I love the recognition and the time it takes.
Congratulations on your loyalty award, COF. I agree with your take on migratory birds. They can act like they own the road. I always dodge them carefully. I disagree on the cheap beer/no beer rule, though. Hot day, lawn mowed, nowhere to drive. Cheap beer wins.
Cheap beer is not an option for me and I love beer. There is nothing more enjoyable than a quality brew and nothing more disappointing than the opposite. I am new to having to make this call so hopefully it is temporary!
