A friend took his life this year, a tragedy that should never have happened.

Cam

My big brother Cameron Bost has been writing and singing his own songs for years. The name of the song is Soul can’t Breath.  Good stuff please check it out and let me know what you think.  I also added another one of his newer recordings below.  The quality isn’t as great but the song is.

She presented each child in her classroom the 1st half of a well-known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb. It’s hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. Their insight may surprise you. While reading, keep in mind that these are first-graders, 6-year-olds, because the last one is a classic!

1. Don’t change horses until they stop running.
2. Strike while the bug is close.
3. It’s always darkest before Daylight Saving Time.
4. Never underestimate the power of termites.
5. You can lead a horse to water but how?
6. Don’t bite the hand that looks dirty.
7. No news is impossible.
8. A miss is as good as a Mr.
9. You can’t teach an old dog new math.
10. If you lie down with dogs, you’ll stink in the morning.
11. Love all, trust me.
12. The pen is mightier than the pigs.
13. An idle mind is the best way to relax.
14. Where there’s smoke there’s pollution.
15. Happy the bride who gets all the presents.
16. A penny saved is not much.
17. Two’s company, three’s the Musketeers.
18. Don’t put off till tomorrow what you put on to go to bed.
19. Laugh and the whole world laughs with you, cry and you have to blow your nose.
20. There are none so blind as Stevie Wonder.
21. Children should be seen and not spanked or grounded.
22. If at first you don’t succeed get new batteries.
23. You get out of something only what you see in the picture on the box.
24. When the blind lead the blind get out of the way.
25. A bird in the hand is going to poop on you.
And the WINNER and last one!
26. Better late than pregnant.

The Raleigh Amphitheater is quite the venue!  With it being only a half a mile form my apartment, make it all the much better.  I recently got to see Widespread Panic there for two nights.  I was a little worried at first because there is a sound ordinance and the show had to start early and end early.  Honestly I thought the sound quality was great as well as the light show.  The Raleigh Amphitheater has a great location in the middle of the city with a pretty impressive building with a shimmering tree that reflects of the windows.  The downside is it is right next to residential areas as well.  That is why the concert had to end early.  But I tell you what, it was kinda nice to get home at a decent hour after good music and dancing.  There are a couple of bars around the venue but a little to red neck for my taste.  Anyway, the Show was awesome and I had not been to one in quite some time so it was well needed and worth it.   Hopefully later I can make an update to this post with some video, but I am still trying to figure out my android and how to tether it.  I know it probably isn’t hard but I have been lazy.   So if you ever get a chance to go the Raleigh Amphitheater I strongly recommend you don’t pass it up.

This past Sunday the neighborhood I live in had a potluck block party for everyone and It is an event that happens every year.  The idea of the even was to bring together neighbors to meet and have some fun.  They booked three great bands (New Orleans Masqueraders, Gods of Harvest,  Milagro Saints )and had plenty of food to eat.  We were asked to bring a dessert or a side dish. I brought good ole’ southern potato salad, and I noticed that there was a wide assortment of types of side dishes, particularly vegan and vegetarian.  It was nice to be able to try the different dishes that I had not seen or had before.  I only wish i would have taken pictures, but i was having too good of a time.  The Boyland Bridge Brew Pub supplied the beer generously and we were able to get cups by donating a small amount of money.  Towards the end of the vent they had a raffle, i didn’t win anything but they had some great prizes that were donated by local sponsors.

I had such a great time and I am so fortunate to have moved into such a nice neighborhood.  I didn’t know anyone when I got there and by the end of the event I had made some friends and met a lot of nice people.

So far i think living in Raleigh will be a ton of fun!

Thanks to everyone who helped put this event together and i look forward to the next event.

Below are a list of sponsors that helped make this event great! Check them out!

So, my friend April came down to to see my new apartment and check out Raleigh.  We went out last night to the Boylan Bridge Brewpub. It wasn’t to crowded cause there was a Ke$ha? concert.  Have no clue who that is but whatever.  The Bar tender was nice (Stephen Emmons) and gave me a bunch of useful information about Raleigh, like apps, late night trolly, and cool bars.  So if you are in the Raleigh area, I strongly suggest checking out the Boyland Bridge Brewpub.

The Man Playing in the Band

Do you know where you were when you heard the news Jerry Garcia passed away?  It was today 16 years ago.  I was at Camp Morehead, where I went every summer, and I was 15 yrs old.   It is hard to believe that at such a young age I was into his music.

He was and is a legend, his music and the memory of his life will live on for many years to come.   Below I have listed just a few posts that honor his memory.
