Readers have been asking for a long time why I don’t do more with soundadviceblog.com and rarely post here. You will read more about that in my column soon, but one of the big reasons is I have never been satisfied with this site and have been planning a new one for some time.  My […]

Visit mylittlegabby.com to read about Sound Advice mascot Gabby!

I recently published a website about the Sound Advice mascot, my miniature dachshund Gabby.  She passed away on June 25, 2015.  She was almost 18 years old, and she slept under my arm almost every day from the moment I took her home when she was 7.5 weeks old. She was playing until the last […]

Back in the saddle and posting again

As you can tell by Beni and Gabby sulking in unison, they have not been getting as much attention as usual lately, and neither has the website!  I had some home projects to work on and  now that they are underway and I am back from summer trip #2,  I am going to start posting […]

On the road- posting more soon

Gabby and Beni at a rest area- they love road trips! Regular readers have probably noticed I have not posted much the past ten days… that’s because I have been on the road for a little R&R, with Gabby and Beni in tow.  This was Beni’s first time in the car for more than a […]

Site news: column archive, a question for readers, giveaways coming up!

Regular visitors have seen me post past columns every few days.  I will be doing this until I am one week behind the most recent column so there is no overlap with the newspapers.  After I am caught up on 2011 I am going to start working on prior years and build up the archive. […]

Photography week at soundadviceblog.com

I’ve received an awful lot of questions about photography lately as people gear up for vacations and look to but new equipment.  I am also working on a new photography-related website that should be launching in a few months, one that will be rather unique on the web.  With that in mind I am going […]

Facebook account back up

Facebook’s recent changes to their privacy policy have put me (somewhat) at ease and I have restored my account.  If you want to add me, add away!

Deleting my Facebook account

Given recent privacy concerns I am deleting my Facebook account.  To all those I have added and who have added me, it is noting personal! More posts coming when I get home next week.  Stay tuned.

Posting to resume tomorrow

Hello everyone, sorry I have been out of touch and let the site sit for a while.  You may have heard about the snowstorm that hit us in the east… long story short, I got hurt and have been spending much of my time on my back trying to get back to 100%.  The past […]
