Most of you know that I'm a huge fan of Beth Hart - man, she can really belt out a good song. Same with this gal. Here, I'm pictured with Robin, from the local Pink Floyd tribute band "Blind Floyd." Robin was the hit of the show, performing "Great big gig in the sky" flawlessly. Later, I'll post some video from the show. If you haven't seen Blind Floyd yet, make a point of it. I guarantee it...

Later, I will review the band and the show on my "other" site: www.untangledup.com.

Life is all about connections - new people, new experiences. Lt. Lisa Saar returned from Iraq last week, and I enjoyed her many stories. Paul works with management and bookings of bands. Both were very interesting table mates during my "night out" at the Manette.

When Chad first met me, he was convinced I was gay. And he was very vocal about it. Turns out that I was just happy, not gay. But Chad will never live that down...

Jim W. Coleman languishes in his natural habitat, the Manette Saloon in Bremerton, Washington. The bar is mentioned in several of his novels.

Jim Dawson at a Jim W. Coleman book signing party at Stuart's Deli. The question originally was: What Would Jim Do? but then, eventually, changed to: Who Wouldn't Jim Do?

My good friend, SteveMark, at The Manette Saloon. I say good friend, but it's very likely that he won't buy me a bottle of good, aged single-malt scotch for my upcoming wedding!

In this photo, Grandpa Munster from the hit tv series 'The Munsters' was spotted at The Manette Saloon in Bremerton, Washington - posing as one Mr. John Taylor. Like I can't see through THAT one. ;)

Here, Sarajean Taylor talks to her friends Jim W. Coleman and John Taylor (both off-camera and no relation) while visiting one afternoon at The Manette Saloon. Sara was always trying to illustrate a point with her hands and I can tell by her expression that she was quite engaged in whatever the conversation was about and was doing her best to get her point across. She must have been talking to John ...

Here, in my all-time favorite composite photo, The Reverend Jim imitates the Pope and gives blessing to the masses at the Manette. He had to borrow the hat from his buddy, Paul, and because he didn't have a cross, he had to wave a bottle of Jamaican Red Stripe beer. But it seemed to work. The Yellow Prowler is there just-cuz. Hey' it's Jim's picture, he can put whatever he wants in to.
