As you can see, I’m in the process of doing a redesign on this blog. Once it’s done it will be much more ME. Please bear with it as it’s a bit funky in that in-between stage right now.
New Design in the Works
Living in the Face of Danger
“Believe me, the secret for harvesting from existence the greatest fruitfulness and greatest enjoyment is – to live dangerously.” – Nietzsche
I found this quote the other day and loved it. I wanted to post it on my FaceBook. But I suddenly realized, “Why would I do that? I’m not living dangerously!” PLEASE! I’m a stay-at-home [...]
Thoughts on the False Notion of Linear Time
Time is a strange concept. I love thinking about time because it takes my relentless mind on some rather crazy journeys. I get to the point where I can no longer fathom time as a concept and all its relative weirdness. I’ve had the theory for several years now that time is best represented by [...]
This Child Won’t Leave Me Alone!!!
A creative idea can be like a child. It whimpers when it needs attention. It follows you around the house tugging at your skirt, looking up at you with big irresistible eyes. At times it can be very demanding, especially when it’s not getting your deserved attention.
PHASE I: DENIAL

Three days of this and my mind is all mushed up. I started creating this novel 8 months ago. I probably have another [...]
The Wanderings of a Ceaseless Mind
Blogs are a pain. After a week or so I start to feel this pressure that I need to write something here. The last few days I’ve been trying to come up with something profound to say. Therein lies the problem…”trying”. Anytime I start “trying” I am in big trouble because it means my thinking [...]
Mail Art (piece #2)
Music Video #1 and Other Random Notes
Several months ago I wrote about Music Video #1. It was entered into a contest in which the musician would pick out his favorite submissions and these would be shown at the album release party. Well, the release party is this Saturday and I was recently informed that my piece is one of those to [...]
Shifting from a “Guy B” Perspective
What better way to kick off the New Decade than by attending a VisionBoard Party? I needed to update mine so I was excited to go. So there I was with 40 other people. We were quietly going through magazines looking for photos to define our hopes and dreams for the new year. Suddenly out [...]
