Some always decry voter disenfranchisement during elections. Were I hot-headed as a general rule, though I can sometimes be, I might have thought attempts were being made to disenfranchise my vote yesterday, but I knew better. Sometimes people just make mistakes. Sometimes the mistaken one is me. Sometimes others. Sometimes both, creating compound mistakes. I…
I once got a bad case of Redbugs (chiggers) Well, I under-reported that significantly. I’ve gotten a bad case of them more than once. I’ve gotten them dozens of times, sometimes from head to toe, with thriving colonies in tender places, growing like new subdivisions in good, suburban school districts, the Redbugs looking for favorable…
We always talk about modern medicine and its many miracles. Well, we’ve always had modern medicine. What we have not had was modern dentistry. Modern dentistry is a relatively new invention, and a good one. What dentists can do is remarkable. Thank goodness. I had a knot come up on the lower right side of…
I had been lost without it. I don’t know what happened to me. I don’t know why let it slip my grasp. I had spent months playing nothing at all, listening to nothing at all, writing nothing at all. I suppose work had a lot to do with it. We have been extremely busy: busy…

We are all limited by time. As it slowly passes through the hourglass, we seem not to notice its steady, relentless flow. We start out with the hourglass full, but it drains into the lower basin, uncontrollable, irreclaimable, each grain a passing moment that can never be retrieved. When the glass is full, we are…
I am not a reviewer, nor a critic. I don’t like to criticize other’s work. It is often said about critics that they become critics because they cannot do. That leaves me right out of the critical realm, because I can and do. What I truly enjoy is the doings of others, especially when I…
I’ve known Stillhouse Junkie bassist Cody Tinnin for a long time, he and his whole extended family. Cody’s father, Glenn, and Uncle Bruce were high school friends and are still friends. My first official musical public performance experiences were as a duo with Bruce Tinnin, and later in bands together where we learned a lot…
