What would your life be like without music? I didn’t choose wisely with my second wife. Well, I didn’t choose wisely the first time either. Anyway, she was bothered that I knew a little about music and singing. So I stopped having music in my life. I listened to NPR a lot. Life without music […]

Citizen Prime, had a podcast about this concept. Jim wrote stories about Citizen Prime in another universe. Jim also played City of Heroes, as I […]
Scour the news for an entirely uninteresting story. Consider how it connects to your life. Write about that. Court: Kevin Costner may need to pay off South Dakota sculptor I remember driving to Washington from Connecticut with my family through South Dakota. One of the road side attractions was the horse from Dances with Wolves. […]
