It's Still Rock And Roll To Me

It's Still Rock And Roll To Me

There was a comedian, it may have been Seinfeld, who had a bit about men hitting a style wall at some point in their lives. Some peak moment where they decide, this is as far as I’m going, this is the look I’m going with. Whatever it is.

David Dreams Of Everything

David Dreams Of Everything

I am sometimes a little despondent that I will unlikely ever be able to do certain things, achieve certain dreams, or accomplish any number of secret wishes or desires. Most things, at least the things I dream about, are not really outside of my grasp but are simply unlikely due

All Uniquely The Same

All Uniquely The Same

Here in America, where individualism is the true national religion, we demand the freedom to be different and then work tirelessly to get everyone to follow suit. We fight for our right to be uniquely homogenous, and fight legislation that allows anyone to be different than what we’ve collectively

The Calculus Of Cruelty

The Calculus Of Cruelty

I never understood the calculus of being cruel. Could never grasp the return on the investment of time and energy. It always seemed like you really had to go above and beyond what was worth one’s time. Had to go out of your way to be unjustifiably cruel. Greed

When The Sun Is Out And I’m Still In

When The Sun Is Out And I’m Still In

I feel guilty when the sun is out and I’m still in, but there has to be some sort of grace period during which this is acceptable. In the full heat of somewhere, unless you’re going to be on the water somewhere, what is the point? I understand

The Early Days Of Podcasting

The Early Days Of Podcasting

I was an early adopter of podcasting, not necessarily making them back then, but listening. I got into them before Apple incorporated the concept of podcasting into iTunes and it blew up the first time around. I was using some RSS reader of some kind, but don’t remember which

Crow flying over a city

As The Crow Flies

I don’t know if this is a good idea, as I’ve begun too many blogs over the years as it is and never kept up with them, but I’m still looking for a place to post my thoughts throughout the day. I would prefer to get away
