Wait a second here. What just happened? I’m about to leave to get the oil changed in my truck so I go to the back door to close the dog door. It’s already closed. But Sadie was running up the driveway to greet me as I was coming down the driveway. How? Before I left…

“We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from universal nature and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion. We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their…

My front yard looks so different now that the pickup trucks and trailer are gone. It looks… clean. I had to get my bike towed to the mechanic yesterday. Again. It wouldn’t start; it just made a clicking sound when I pressed the starter. I bought the battery back in November or December of last…

I wish I had a way of recording my thoughts while I’m driving to and from work. That’s an hour and 1/2 each way. You can get some good thinking done in that span of time. But by the time I walk through the door, great the dogs and take care of the chickens and…

You should be leery of any organization with a nonsense name like that. It usually means that it’s a den of bureaucratic busy-bodies who are up to no good. Would you have guessed from their name that CSPI is…

Once again, I had something I wanted to say but by the time I got everything configured I forgot what I was going to say.

Well.  Fuck.  I spent so much time editing that audio clip that I forgot what I came here to say. Maybe it had something to do with this being the place that I’m going to post my life updates.  Not Facebook.  Not Twitter.  Not Tumblr or any other social media site. If I’m going to…
