Klappa Singing in Croatia

Tony's restaurant near Vela Luka, Korcula Island, Croatia.

Charley Bikey

In about a week, my wife and I will go to Croatia to celebrate our 20th anniversary.  We are doing a cycling trip with a company called Backroads.  We start in Split, then travel to the islands of Brac, Hvar, and Korcula.  We end up in Dubrovnik.

I will post photos, connectivity permitting,  to THIS LINK.

Wish us luck!

Charley's Been Busy

What if a blog post fell in the forest and there was nobody there to read it.  I probably happens millions of times per second.  Until now, the last time I updated this blog was 2011.  Now it's towards the end of 2013, so it has been a while.  Blogging was fun for a while, but I moved on to other things, like the stuff listed below.

Best Bar-Be-Que in Indy: Black Diamond BBQ

6404 Ruck Blvd S105
Indianapolis, IN, 46220

Move over, GT Souths! My buddies took me to the easily looked-over Black Diamond BBQ and it was by far the best I have had in Indianapolis in my 7+ years here.

Try the pork sammich: hot & sweet. You will NOT be disappointed. Just make sure your afternoon meetings don't require your full alertness!

And the artwork inside is worth the trip!

They Might Be Giants: Join Us

Today They Might Be Giants releases a new album for us grown-up kids, called Join Us. After a couple listens, I dig it pretty good.  I like it better than The Spine but I haven't decided whether it is as good as The Else (got a signed copy at a concert a few years back).

You can pick up the whole kaboodle over at your friendly Amazon store for 8 bones if you are into the whole downloading thing.

Electric Motor for Paper Airplanes

This is about the coolest little gadget I have seen in a while!
It's a little electric motor you clip to your paper airplane. Supposedly runs 90 seconds on a 20 recharge. For $20 you can sign me up for a couple!

Carbon fiber makes the add-on super light.

Makes me wish I was a teacher so I could have whole bunch of these zooming around the classroom.

Charley Likey!
