Misplaced Religious Fervor

As I write this, we’ve just passed the Easter weekend celebration. That makes this an ideal time to once again reference the document mentioned previously that includes the note: “GI Joes crucified.” I mentioned this blog to my cousin a few weeks ago, but I have no idea if he ever looks/looked at it. IContinue reading “Misplaced Religious Fervor”

Change is Apparent…in my Pocket, in my Climate

Sometimes I forget to take change out of my pocket because I’m waiting until I get to my office desk and I can dump them into the little box I use to collect coins.

Aren’t we fascinated by vampires and other immortal creatures for exactly that reason—we all want to live forever? Of course, our genes haveContinue reading “Who Wants To Be Immortal?”

My question is: why don’t we have Christmas in June? The weather would be so much better andContinue reading “Christmas in…June?”

In the Icecubes of My Drink

Another piece from my back catalogue has resurfaced and been completed with the use of AI. Longtime collaborator Jeremy dePrisco took the song I had written and made a recording of it, with some flavoring of Frank Zappa, I believe. I’ve long wanted to do the music video, maybe in Second Life, but AI madeContinue reading “In the Icecubes of My Drink”
