A couple years ago I wrote this book whilst sitting around, getting stoned, and reminiscing about this wild ride I have been on since the year 1954. I have always enjoyed short and powerful as opposed to long and flowery, although in good writing, there is room for every genre. So what I did wasContinue reading “My Book in Audio”

More Music
I had a surprisingly good response (s) from my first music post yesterday, so, keeping with that whole strike-while-the-iron’s-hot thing, I am following it up with three more songs in today’s post.. I was working as a French Executive Chef in the Midwest in the early ‘90’s and I had the occasion to run intoContinue reading “More Music”
Differences
She has trouble boiling water. I am a starred French Chef She couldn’t tell a lie if she tried. I can. I also know that if my life ever came down to hanging in the balance dependent on Karen lying for me, adios muchachos! Black hair. Blonde hair. Dark brown skin. Pale white shin. AbsolutelyContinue reading “Differences”
The One That Got Away
We all have one. That one special person, maybe even your very first crush that turned into a boyfriend-girlfriend situation. But then something happened. Life. You moved, they moved, whatever. As a military dependent living with a very ambitious Staff Sergeant in the United States Air Force, we travelled a lot. It was our lastContinue reading “The One That Got Away”
Shake Things Up!
Life is so fun because it is what you make of it. If you want to spend your life adhering to the norm and fashioning out your own routine within that framework, more power to you. I like to shake things up from time to time, especially with my perfect foil, the Domestic Despot. ForContinue reading “Shake Things Up!”
Closing Time
Not only an ass-kicking song by Semisonic, but an always-approaching time for us all. The end game. Departure. So why do we waste so much of the precious time we have been allotted on useless horseshit like hatred and fear? And supposedly, we are the most intelligent life form on Earth. Maybe not. AI foundContinue reading “Closing Time”
Before Time Existed
This is the time before I married my soulmate, or at least that is the way she characterizes it. But somewhere in this void, there was a rapidly-aging young man that had it made: a rich girlfriend with a chip on her shoulder. Kiki. She was a very nice-bodied friend of mine, who, by convenience,Continue reading “Before Time Existed”
Here We Go Again
In this dangerous world, our nation’s defense is Priority One. Or at least it should be. What do you do when you want to attract the best recruits possible to join our naval forces? Lower the standards, of course. The business sector has been doing it forever to attract workers who just don’t want toContinue reading “Here We Go Again”
Zula
She was from the jungles of Brazil. No town or city name. My feeble attempts at conversing bore no fruit, but when our gaze met, everything else, and I mean everything else, melted away. There was nothing in this world more important than finding my way next to her and her round, warm body. SheContinue reading “Zula”
More Than a Dance
So I got together with some musicians I used to play with back in the early nineties and it was a blast. Only thirty years removed from our last gig together, we sounded surprisingly tight, albeit a little rusty. There was a bigger crowd than I expected, and we were pleasantly surprised at the energyContinue reading “More Than a Dance”
