Grimes Conflated with Wolftever Creek



Great showmanship.  Even though the video effectively co-ops consciousness by force-feeding the consumer with images otherwise left open to mental play, all while the music does its part, the effect is entirely satisfying.  Sometimes you just let go and let the audio/visual wash over you, like a chill wave, tits and ass nothwithstanding.

But, if I want, I can shut my eyes and envision drone footage bearing down the road down to Wolftever Creek, and the rope swing, and summers that gave way to the ice cold immersion at the end of the day.

Bron-Y-Aur Stomp (Remaster)



A music major from the University of Tennessee visited us on the peninsula during vacation.  We played a game.  He played the first few bars of a song and we were asked to identify the piece, based only on a few introductory licks, whereupon the music guy would interrupt the song by lifting the stylus from the vinyl disc.

He played the first few bars of Bron-Y-Aur Stomp.  I raised my hand and identified the the piece.  His response:  "Whoa, deep Zeppelin dude!"

Me Floating Bad Branch conflates Gregory Alan Isakov - San Luis (OFFICIAL VIDEO)


An act of letting go.  Ironic that it took addiction and its evisceration of self-control for me to act like I was letting go, like a dog slipping its lead.  Today there's no need to act like I'm letting go with silly antics like this.  Today, I don't have as much to prove.  This news is good.

United States Bureau of Prisons and the U.S. Attorney General Failed Justice

James "Whitey" Bulger
Jeffrey Epstein




Whitey Bulger escaped American Justice when he was murdered within the jurisdiction of the U.S. Bureau of Prisons.  Jeffrey Epstein escaped justice when he was enabled to commit suicide despite the fact that he was on suicide watch, while in the custody of the U.S. Attorney General.  Fact.

Daniel Burton


I got Daniel acquitted with an entrapment defense several years ago.  As we walked Pressman's Home taking photographs in preparation for his trial, Daniel told me that the problem with most all lawyers is that "they're afraid to get out from behind their desks to work their cases."  Absolutely right. 

Rest in peace, Danny.

Discussion of the minimal of three moves required of the dialectic.  I think that it only requires two for the third to emerge sua sponte.

This is an important film, thanks to the hard work of director, Daniel Schmidt.  It should appeal to everyone, regardless of your hemispherical wiring.

Oskar Groening - A Member of Hitler's SS - Admits the Holocaust was Real



To all the holocaust deniers: Oskar Groning, a former member of Hitler's SS at Auschwitz, admitted, completely against his own interest, that the holocaust was real.  He was found guilty of taking part in 300,000 murders of Jewish men, women, and children.  In Law, statements against the interests of the declarant are given great weight because the declarant has nothing to benefit and much to lose as the result of these statements.

See if for yourselves in The Accountant of Auschwitz, now available on NETFLIX.

From Sky's High Closet: The Five Gallon Bucket

When at love's best dancing follow mates' forthcoming,  Heading down love budding, shutting eyes fantastic, see the girl's back bending, spilling seeds in the hay great barn.


The sun shines down over sunbeam slants, from the sky's high closets, when the air's best blows, forming dust petals up near the lovegrass bending while the plows lose friends.  And the farms grow men out of yellow bucket boys

David Bowie / Ashes to Ashes



"Ashes to ashes, fun to funky, we know Major Tom's a junkie."

When I submit to the brilliance of this piece, a soft concussion blasts me into new places, the stylis penetrates into the groovy cleavage and I immediately improve my condition;  "I'm happy, I hope you're happy, too."
