guitar feedback.
That’s right. John Kerry invented guitar feedback.
I call shennanigans.

I really love our cat. He’s probably the most perfect cat ever known to man. He has an interesting combination of cat and dog personality. He comes when called, is excited to see me when I come home from work, wants to jump up in my lap whenever I sit down, wants to lay on my stomach whenever I lay down, and he purrs constantly whenever someone even touches him. (sometimes so loud, that it gets hard to sleep and then we have to kick him out of the room).
He wants to be near wherever Nancy and I are. He’ll sit at our feet, or if possible, on us whenever we sit down.
A funny thing happened tonight. We let Archie outside (after being grounded to the indoors for a couple of days after taking a ride down to the corner on the top of the Johnson’s car. Our plan was to let him back inside before we went to bed. (It’s a cold and scary world out there after all). He wasn’t around immediately when I went to look for him. No biggie, he rarely is. I discovered that if I wait a few minutes after the first time I call him, he usually comes to the back door. Well, this time, nothing. I was going to give up and just go to bed and let him spend the night outside, so I closed and locked the doors for the night, and shut all the lights off, went upstairs, and started worrying about him. Yes, I know, I’m silly.
But it was cold out, and our crazy Kerry supporting neighboors** were having a wild “democrat church” party (yes, I heard them actually say that was what they were doing) next door. So I went out one more time. He came running to me. I picked him up and went inside. All is now well.
** note: their Kerry supporting status does not necessarily indicate a relation to their crazy status, or visa versa…

So, my birthday is less than a month away, and that means that you all need gift ideas (cough).
Well, you’re in luck! Check out: Matt Heerema’s Amazon.com Wish List. (Amazon.com Gift Certificates are always good too.)
In all seriousness though, I think amazon.com wishlists are really fun to look over (not to mention create), so this really is meant to give you a glimpse into my interests (power tools, Rock and Roll music, action movies, and computer stuff).
Make one for yourself, and put a link to it here!

I’m pretty sure that if it was around when the book was written, this would have been featured in Growing Up Whitney.
It’s nice to know that if/when I’m a dad, I can solve all my problems by rocking out.
