I talked to Anil today. I'm not sure why he's been off of AcuraZine. Sid just turned 1 year old.

Apparently he's doing the work of 2 people at work for 1/2 the pay...and after Sid was born Acurazine was only frequented during work hours...not really on the weekends or after work. So I guess eliminating that killed his time to be online. Although his credit card statement still shows that he's making time for visit roundandbrown.com repeatedly every single day so I'm a little hurt.


happy birthday, little guy...


now give the poor kid a haircut!


PS, I text him last night too, Steven. Figured I should find out if he died or got deported for myself.

I remember Anil saying something about doing the work of two people about two months ago. I need to reach out to him again.

Pretty sure you're right...it was sunny

Steven, focus on your angles, and you need to either learn how to use shutter priority to dull it down, or get an indian bootleg version of lightroom to bring it down. My favorite of the set is 2nd to last though.

Car is always on point but I'm going to eat my words now that I see it in sunlight. Remove that pinstripe immediately! It totally cheapens the look of the carbon and makes it seem like you're one step away from going to autozone to buy anything that'll stick to your car.

Sorry, man...I tried to keep an open mind but no way no how...that fkng stripe gotta go. ALL OF IT!


I still love you though.

Nice pics but like I said before the stripes take away from that clean factor. I understand the itch of always wanting to do something new. I've learned to slow down with my s2000 and just enjoy the experience or maybe I'm just getting old

Well, it's been a week and I haven't seen her. Last Monday it was 71 degrees. Tuesday (last week), it was 30 degrees.


She is over at Anil's......and Anil is out of town, so no pictures of how she's doing either.

It is cold pretty early, welcome change though. Normally we're sweating our asses off for Thanksgiving!

You okay? Your online tone has been dry lately.

You guys have a house with no fireplace
That's weird to me
Is that really true? Can you install one at least? Do they sell them there?
Maybe electric ones but not real ones I guess

I actually had a fireplace at the rental house...used it once and didn't even sit in front of it for more than 15 minutes.
I like fire pits better...

Hmm fire pits, they could be perfect for Florida nights.
I've never experienced that because at night it just gets cold as hell up in here.

Yeah, here, since there's no snow it's cool since you're warm enough around the pit.

Steven, come on down...there's golf and babes and sun!

Jeremy, as soon as my parents are gone, we will definitely be headed down there!

By then, my radio career and my stadium announcing career might be close to it's sunset....who knows! Maybe I can get a job as the stadium announcer for the Florida Panthers or the Tampa Bay Lightning. Then I can get a weekend job at a Classic Rock station somewhere.



Or, I can just come pick you up and we can go cruising in the "Little Red Corvette" !!!!!
