The Lewis Show

This is not how I wanted to start my metal blog, by posting of the sudden passing of stars in the genre. Earlier this year, Peter Steele died suddenly from heart failure, my last post I mentioned Dio, now news from Iowa reports Slipknot bassist, Paul Gray was found dead in a Des Moines hotel room. Again, I have nothing to say or add, just thinking of family and friends. I figure it's always fitting to showcase some of the chaos he helped to start. Thanks, Paul, for the fun memories.

Ronnie James Dio passed away earlier today at 67. He was a vital pioneer in metal and hard rock. I can say nothing for this moment other than condolences to his family and may his music live on. Dio - Rainbow in the Dark

You've seen me post about the leaf monster It's gone now! Both of them!  Now what do I do with a ditch?

Fun sign we keep in the utility room Sun setting in Chamberlayne Farms Janine's handywork. I take no credit for this one! The leaves are FINALLY ready to go...

I would dare say after 1,000 posts, I should be earning some page rank by now, Google. Especially after my last few posts have been so Goog heavy as seen in a Wordle diagram of my blog. As I mentioned in the last post, I wanted to announce the changes I'm making to the blog and the network on my one thousandth post. Trying to put such a post together is hard work when one such as myself is as lazy as I am, so the best way to do this is classic random style. Ready? Go! I have 4 Lewis Show domains, I'm going to use all of them seperately feeding everything here into the com.  I have an org which I will highlight local, national, and international charities, because I can and I think that's what I'm supposed to do with a dot org site. Well, I don't have to, but I want to. I have the dot net site which now feeds my tweets, what I've Dugg, and my Reader submissions. I'm going to move that to the dot info site. Or I may use my flavors.me account to hold my...

This is my 999th blog post. I don't think to this point I've ever really established a stable identity. The blog itself has been a tech blog, a personal blog, a music blog, and an items of interest blog now from its inception. Not giving a clear identity can make things confusing and hard to follow. That's why this hasn't taken off the way I would like. So for my 1000th post, I will be announcing the new blog lineup which will include a lot of surprises, but I figured I can do more with this space. I might actually make a difference. We'll see, but stayed tuned, next week I'll be making a major announcement here. It will be all in great fun, and things will become more enjoyable here and hopefully, more of a destination. A big thanks to those that have stuck around and subscribed to my blog, your patience will be rewarded big time.
