People that inhabit a property that they have no legal claim to do so. Big news when we hear of squatters and the legal frustrations involved trying to extricate them. Aren’t we all just another form of squatter? We are here, free to live and do whatever we want until another more powerful entity decidesContinue reading “Squatters”

Get Real
When we left our lovely home in Phoenix to be closer to Karen’s family, I was looking for my own little Mayberry to move to. I wanted the whole mom and pop thing, the small town feel, and when we were searching for our new home, we came upon the “main street” of this smallContinue reading “Get Real”
Maybe It’s Time
As of today, we have had forty-five presidents lead our country. Zero women have held that office, and the failed campaign of Hillary Clinton saved us all from just another one of the good ‘ole boys dressed in a Brooks Brothers power suit. In our zeal to show a fake sense of inclusion, we actuallyContinue reading “Maybe It’s Time”
A Little Something Extra
I was involved in one position or another in restaurants in my journey. Part of that journey was as a tipped employee. I loved that position better than any I held afterwards, even after I ascended to the Executive Chef position in a starred French restaurant. Why? I was single and working in a majorContinue reading “A Little Something Extra”
What Did I Miss?
I just caught a glimpse of a picture of Nancy Pelosi and I love it because she always looks like she just set the doobie down and waved the smoke away with her hands, and then turned towards the camera. I really do like the salty bird, though. I like anybody who’s not afraid toContinue reading “What Did I Miss?”
My Three Cents
Advocacy groups for Texas inmates are complaining because there is no air conditioning. Oh boo fucking hoo. I am sure you are not doing time in a state penitentiary because you are, and always have been, a model citizen. I’m so sorry for your lyin’, cheatin’, rapin’, thievin’, murderin’ asses. Deal with it. I wantContinue reading “My Three Cents”
Never Ever Ever Apologize!
Unless you screw something up and you have to. Israel isn’t apologizing for anything After all, it wasn’t their citizens hang gliding down on a group of all those innocent, honest Hamas people we hear so much about, shooting automatic rifles indiscriminately. And the definition of insanity? History has provided you with the 6-day War,Continue reading “Never Ever Ever Apologize!”
Cantina Lady
I have been asked several times when I play a song I wrote in 1974 titled Cantina Lady about the story behind the song. Well, I guess the statute of limitations is probably up by now, so here’s how it went down. It was a hot June night in the Mexican border town of Nogales,Continue reading “Cantina Lady”
Good For You!
It’s 3:08pm EST here and the sun is completely hidden behind the moon. There are scores of people gathered at a local park not far from my house and, at the exact moment of total eclipse, the crowd hoots and hollers like it’s 1999 (thanks Prince). Why? Because they made it through the event? WayContinue reading “Good For You!”
Never Too Late
Well, I did it again. Despite my assertions, I have gone and got myself involved with another musical situation. After our band Sedona broke up I said (for the 20th time) that I was through with bands. But duets are different. Fast, EFFICIENT practices. So, this young dude who has been helping me out withContinue reading “Never Too Late”
