Now that the headlines are proclaiming the arrival of $25/barrel oil, it may be time to consider a vehicular upgrade.  The Yin of yesterday’s art post must be balanced by the Yang of Total Destruction or the equilibrium of this blog will never recover.  The environmental-types would definitely not approve.  I want one.

Adirondack Aesthetics and Style

December 3rd, 2008 · 2 Comments · News

In case you didn’t notice, The Adirondack Boys are back.

Guess who just got back today?
Them wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven’t changed, have much to say
But man, I still think them cats are crazy

One of the best blogs about Adirondack life, style, and Old Forge.

Give it a read, you won’t be dissappointed.
