Neglecting the Blog

February 3rd, 2009

I know, I know.   I haven’t written anything on the blog for a really long time.  I guess a new job and a ton of other stuff will cause that to happen. 

Postings will likely be few and far between until further notice.

Dweezil’s Signed My Flesh

July 2nd, 2008

I drove up to Summerfest in Milwaukee last night to see Zappa Plays Zappa and I caught Dweezil in back of the stage after the show and had him sign my leg around my Zappa tattoo.

Dweezil is pretty cool.  This is the 2nd time I got his autograph,  and he is always such a nice guy.  He is really enjoying traveling around playing his dad’s music.  I’m enjoying it too.

Other Ownby’s Finding This Site

June 27th, 2008

I was just wondering if any other Ownby’s are finding this page.  If you are an Ownby and you land on the site,  take a minute and post a comment. I am curious to know how you found the site and what you were searching for; or if you just typed in Ownby.com because it’s your last name too.

Thanks

Jeff

Lake Geneva House

June 4th, 2008

I decided to build a website for our Lake Geneva House. We are going to start allowing family and friends to rent the house for vacation and put the site up for general information and to check for availability. Seems like a waste to only use it part of the year. We hope that people we know will enjoy it as much as we do.

Iron and Wine and Califone

April 22nd, 2008

So we were backstage at the Iron and Wine and Califone show at the Vic in Chicago last night. I am so glad I got turned onto Iron and Wine and wouldn’t have if our friend, Ben didn’t play percussion for them. I think they are my new favorite band. Great sound and great lyrics, but definitely on the mellow side

Here is a cool clip of an Iron and Wine show in Amsterdam on 01.21.08. You can see Benedetto behind Sam in almost the whole video of the show.

    This is the Ownby family website. It's set up as a blog so that we can diary our life experiences and maybe look back someday and know the exact point at which we turned into huge dorks.
