I Heard the Night Was Pickin’ Up A Song, You Threw Your Hair Back and You Sang Along

The weekend belonged to Robyn and Rolando, the wedding in a Dallas suburb. What were the guys doing behind there you ask? Well, Baptist Church parking lots are good places for a brew or two. Living in the nicest place in NB, the ‘flux capacitor’ went out and didn’t get repaired for a week. Who [...]



It’s the Feeling I Get When I Look to the West, Having all the Answers Still Failing the Test

A few things come to my mind tonight, integrity, and what that means to people, and a question that popped up in a facebook status, what do you care about what other people’s feelings. So much has been swirling around in my head on these topics, and the cursed 85 degree spring Texas night and [...]

The album of the weekend Ashton and I, can you tell which one of us is expecting? Gman and Jamie got a new truck! A nice blue Dodge It’s amazing to watch things grow, Ronnie is THE MAN, and we’ll have some great organic grub this summer. Also the lemon tree and pomogranite trees are [...]



I smell the engine grease and mint the wind is blending Under the moan of rotting elm in the silo floor

Jupiter Hotel Portland was the site of the James Mercer, Steve Malkmus set, I must say it was extraordinary, a benefit for an Elementary School. Brilliant, even though the crowd talked through both sets. The lights at the Jupiter are black lights, the decor is IKEAish which is the fashionable thing to do, and hipsters [...]



Wind in my hair, I feel part of everywhere, underneath my being is a road that disappeared

Eddie Vedder is good for modern day poetry. I ‘heard’ or ‘read’ somewhere he wrote ‘Alive’ after staying up for 3 days straight. I’m fascinated by people who do what isn’t popular or right, but turn out to be legends when it’s all said and done. Driving home this song got me to raise and [...]



Tied to a Brick, Sweet as a Song, The years have been short but the days go slowly by

Lots of decisions always in life, wish I had a quotation that could mesh it all together. Random comments. There are personalities all around you, some you want to be influenced by, and some you want to shield yourself from. It’s a fascinating time going out and seeing new people, talking to strangers, see what [...]



I was flat on my back with my feet in the thorns, I was in between the apples and the chloroform

Mike P and Mike D, The Dog and Duck Pub, a place I love, place I’ve tried to solve the worlds problems via pub talk many stumbly nights. I told them to look mad. I liked the slogan on the table, basically saying carpe diem. A rare Robert visit to the mall to get measured [...]

I’m Just Tryin’ To Find A Decent Melody, A Song that I can sing in my own company

Problems of the heart call for a U2 record. How is it that Bono just knows what to say to me. I love him and I hate him all at once. People who know what to do and say at the right time truly have a gift. Tonight I unloaded my camera from my trip [...]
