Summer of ’89 – Butch Walker

By From http://www.odonnellweb.com • Jun 29th, 2011 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

The first song from the new Butch Walker album. I hope he tours in my neighborhood again this time. If you haven’t been to a Butch Walker show you are missing out. Big time.



Pre-frontal storms

By From http://stormsrus.blogspot.com/ • Jun 28th, 2011 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

Knowing that today was my only shot at chasing this week I haunted the models, radar, and observations all morning and early afternoon. A lee trough ahead of a cold front was supposed to fire some storms as the SPC had our area under a Slight Risk eve…



Queensryche – Dedicated To Chaos

By From http://www.odonnellweb.com • Jun 28th, 2011 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

My Queensryche roots go deep. Real deep. As in I owned a cassette copy of their EP before their first full length album was even available. (1983?) I have all their records, so there was never any doubt that I would buy Dedicated to Chaos on day 1. So trust me when I say I […]

Frontal passage with no reachable storms

By From http://stormsrus.blogspot.com/ • Jun 24th, 2011 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

With a cold frontal passage through the area early Friday afternoon I was hoping for at least one decent cell to chase. There wasn’t – it all happened well to the east – but I did at least identify and track a convective line that eventually intensifi…



Party Like It’s 1989

By From http://www.odonnellweb.com • Jun 24th, 2011 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

Do You Want It by Beautiful Beast This week’s featured Friday tune is from Beautiful Beast, a German band that clearly was started in the wrong century. Had this record been released in 1989, it would have sold 3 million copies and the video would have featured a collection of hot sports cars and even […]

Ignorance of where our food comes from mostly benefits big agribusiness. If raising a calf that was ultimately going to become dinner was part of the public school curriculum we wouldn’t have a factory farm problem in the US.
