keep your head up

We don't know when this old photo was taken, but this is still the state of our country today. Let's lend a hand to our fellow man, support small, independent businesses, and in general just uplift each other more than knock each other down. It's hard times, keep your head up.

We can't recall how or where we stumbled upon this photo, if anyone knows the photographer, please send us an email so we can give proper photo credit

September comes and October goes, November is just a glance; Once again, there'll be invitations To another holiday dance; I'll decorate the Christmas tree With icicles, stars, and lights, But I'll need a ton of eggnog To get me through this night! -J. Bjorling

Jack Nicholson Winter

Ah, it's that time again, back into the winter tupperware. At least we can rely on Jack's acting chops to ease the bite: Easy Rider, Chinatown, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, The Shining, As Good As It Gets, etc. etc.
