I attended great event last night, the annual "Wallow" of the Military Order of the Carabao. You can read about the Order and its big annual party, but what I want to talk about is the fellow who did a brief instrumental performance to cap off the night--Skunk Baxter. Doc Milnamo is I'm sure, quite knowledgeable of Baxter's great musical career as a guitarist in "Steely Dan" and "The Doobie Brothers". But how many of you knew of Baxter's current endeavors--as a consultant to the Department of Defense?
Read this little Wikipedia piece on Baxter, and tell me if it isn't simply way cool. The guy took looking at common problems from an uncommon viewpoint to a new level. He sure did look out of place at the event last night--but people talked about him like he was a Rock Star--and not because he is a Rock Star. Hat's off to Skunk Baxter.

Some people just continue to amaze!
Interesting story but how in the heck did Skunk Baxter get a security clearance? Back in my day sonny, you couldn't live the lifestyle of a rock star and get a TS clearance. Oh you could have "experimented" with pot but a habitual smoker was a big disqualification. Skunk looks like the kind of guy who likes to get high. I'm just saying.
Oh yeah, loved his work on "Can't Buy a Thrill".
