Apologies to all. I know that in my absence, world events have been hidden in a shroud of blackness beyond your ability to learn about them. Between work and little league playoffs and car shopping and combing my hair and publicity for my upcoming album, I’ve just been stretched pretty thin. We had a photo […]

Delay
2 long personal days in a row. Hopefully I will post tonight. Thanks to all for your dedication to following the site.
Creek Don’t Rise
Towns in the midwest and south are being ravaged by the rising flood waters of the Mississippi river pushed over its basin. Livelihoods in the short and long term will be lost. The event threatens to revisit additional water damage on a Louisiana that’s had her share. In today’s song blog, I’ve reprised both a […]

Prince With A Thousand Enemies. That is all.
A Food Experiment
It’s been a fairly big week for the ipoet. First, and I say this as respectfully as possible, I called the Osama “capture” at year’s start. And, now, just days later, my specific prediction that the Mavericks would defeat the Lakers in the second round has transpired, and I’m one round closer to the fulfillment […]

I was about an hour from any major city and I was panning the Amplitude Modulation frequency in a panic for detail. I would get 30 seconds of information that would rapidly […]
Under Construction
Obviously a hugely important day. I’m traveling. Tried to write the song as I drove, scanning the radio stations coming in and out for information about it. Didn’t get in until midnight and just couldn’t finish. I am working to get the song right. I’ll get it up as soon as I can.
Press Junket Series No. 5
Haven’t done one in a while. Thought I’d roundup the news. Stories include Easter in China; Judge Nelson’s NFL lockout decision and tonight’s Draft; NBA playoffs (late breaking Spur’s result); Mel Kiper’s hair; Obama’s long-form birth certificate and dubious citizenship; storms in the South; continued unrest in Syria, Yemen, and Libya; and the Royal Wedding. […]
To Keep Watch
There are a lot of reasons not to believe Christianity. And, there are a lot of reasons to prefer deism, agnosticism, and/or atheism. I constantly entertain them. The position without almost any colorable basis is the one that eliminates the right to consider it all, as a person of conscience b]]><![CDATA[efore the Creator/universe. Apparently, even […]
