about our dying democracy; I care for future generations. I don’t give a damn about our crumbling bicameral system; it’s not working. And don’t get me started about the self-centered dumbasses that populate our judicial branch. If you think it’s bad now…… I have maybe a decade left (if I’m lucky), so their favorite dictatorContinue reading “I Don’t Care…”

How Much is Too Much?
A question for the ages… To the person who says that “you can have too much of a good thing,” I say they obviously weren’t living alongside me in Las Vegas in the eighties. Too much money? Right. I have no animosity or envy of rich people. I want them to succeed the same asContinue reading “How Much is Too Much?”
Can You Just Imagine?
One of the benefits of being a bit off-kilter (a polite way of saying nuttier than Cooter Brown) is that there is a non-stop reel of craziness that runs 24/7 through my gourd. If you doubt my craziness, I just wrote nuttier than Cooter Brown. Truly bad cinema. People that know me have come toContinue reading “Can You Just Imagine?”
1000 Posts…When Will it End?
I don’t care if they are fake. No, not those, get your mind out of the gutter. I am talking about the feel-good stories people post on Facebook. You know the ones I’m talking about: the little injured bird that gets befriended by an iguana, for example. The iguana heals his little feathered newfound friendContinue reading “1000 Posts…When Will it End?”
999 and counting….
I never thought I would EVER be one of those… You know, people who post online blogs. This is the 999th post I have had published on this blog site and I am having just as much fun doing it now as when I started three years ago. My science of writing is a simplisticContinue reading “999 and counting….”
Back and Motivated!
This will be my first post in over a week, so I will cover a lot of ground. A last-minute call from a fellow musician landed me an 8-11 gig last night at a local brewery. I quickly threw a playlist together of about seventy-five songs from all genres and showed up. It was aContinue reading “Back and Motivated!”
George Strait……The Man
I listened to George Strait back in the eighties and nineties and sang along to his cassettes and later, discs, and his music is still timeless country. In this age of AI and Autotune, meant to deceive the audience (enhance the music?), George used a guitar and microphone. No explosions. No laser light show. NoContinue reading “George Strait……The Man”
What a Simple Game
If you turn on the telly to check out the U.S. Open, you will see shots hit into the wire grass, the pine trees, the pine needles, the water, hell it seems like everywhere but in the hole. When I go golfing, sporting my 35+ handicap, I can putt the ball and it might endContinue reading “What a Simple Game”
Working Stoned
When I think back on the entirety of my working career, I really went to work stoned. A lot. When you are a young chef candidate, you are crushing long hours with other young hopefuls, and guess what? Every one of them is high. Once you attain a level of autonomy and say-so in anContinue reading “Working Stoned”
Am I Nuts?
I’ll be late posting this blog because, despite my insistence, I am currently texting another musician who has taken a hiatus from his successful working band Wood ‘n Steel Revival and we are in the embryonic stages of forming yet another band. I know, I know… My short-lived awesome little band Sedona we had dissolvedContinue reading “Am I Nuts?”
