One thing I have been neglectful is covering music that I have been to this year.  Fact is I have not gone to any festivals or big name concerts this year, but I have caught a bunch of groups and individuals in the local scene, both in Lexington and even more so in Danville.  There are only a handful of places to catch music in Danville and of those most of them have pretty bad acoustics.  That being what it is, my favorite place is at Joe’s Fourth Street Deli and Tap Room.  Given that, what I really wanted to mention was local groups… and at the top of that list is no surprise, Frankly Scarlet!  Check them out by the way at Joe’s on this Saturday eve, January 2nd, 2010!

Worst Ten…2009

Posted in: Frustrations, Life | Posted by: rcornish | Comments: 0 | Date: 30 December, 2009

And of course as a correlation to the best ten moments of 2009, there had to be a worst ten moments/experiences of of 2009.  I am not sure if this indicates that I am a negative person or not, but it seems to me that the ability to find the ten negatives was easier.  I am going to go with instead that I had such happy moments to choose from that it made it difficult, where the negatives were far and few and hence easier to select.  How is that for positive thinking?

Top Ten…2009

Posted in: Life, Thankful | Posted by: rcornish | Comments: 0 | Date: 22 December, 2009

Top TenAs mentioned before, I am doing a top ten best moments and/or experiences of 2009.  Clearly these are things for which I am thankful for having had the opportunity.  I am still debating regarding if I should do the same for the decade.  It gets a little bit more involved to find the ten items that fit the list without skipping something else.  And for those wondering, yeah, but decades end in the digit 9, but I started counting in a year that ended in 0, so I am all good.  So the list is in order for a change, counting down to the number one experience – but for some reason WordPress seems to not agree with a <ol reversed> tag set.

Some Green

Posted in: Green-Living | Posted by: rcornish | Comments: 0 | Date: 20 December, 2009

I am not sure why I get to thinking more about green aspects of life during the holiday season, but I do.  Maybe it because I start thinking about the primary colors of Christmas or maybe it is the green of the Christmas tree?  Really I should be thinking more about it all the time and I suppose in some ways I am doing that.  Anyway, all that aside I have a few more green tips that I have been keeping in my head for a bit and thought I would get share before the end of the year.

Odd Bits…

Posted in: Blogging, Life, Observations, Technology | Posted by: rcornish | Comments: 0 | Date: 19 December, 2009

Some historical irony in this weeks list of observations that I just find wonderfully fulfilling in a geeky kind of way.  Also a good enough story that strikes home to some posts I have had here before about the idea and also the fact that you do not necessarily need an electronic can opening device built into your laptop.  Hopefully, I have done a better job with my note taking as I have observed things this week, as I putting it together on the fly when most things are actually observed.
