Yes, that whole thing is the actual title. I have a frisky editor. (Spoiler alert: it’s me.) Written in my ’97 Buick LeSabre, at an intersection near Palm Springs, CA. Original copy here. Read more poems at my Poems page. Intersection (editor’s note: pretentious title?) We all watch as the hobo crosses All of us […]
New Song – “Relentless”
This new song isn’t for everyone–in fact, it may be just for me. :-) It’s a noisy, semi-heavy, mostly-instrumental track that I’m calling “Relentless”. (Technically “Relentless 7” because this is version #7 of the song.) Hope you enjoy it! (Though I’m not making any promises. ;-))
Song lyrics – “Scully”
Now that The X-Files was revived for a special season, I realized my punk-ish just-for-fun song “Scully” might need to be slightly updated. I also realized it has a bunch of funny lines, but will probably never manifest into an actual finished song, at least under my non-musically-talented oversight. So I figured I’d just post it, so […]
Gary Johnson for President graphics
I need to get back into the flow here, so I’m going to stop overthinking things and just start posting some stuff I’ve made. Here’s a couple graphics I made to promote Gary Johnson’s presidential campaign. Feel free to use or distribute them at will without attribution!
A Seriously Amusing ‘Hallelujah’
One thing I often say to describe myself to new people is “I take everything very seriously, and not seriously at all.” (That implies that I meet new people frequently enough to say it “often”. Let’s just let it slide.) This video of sad clown Puddles Pity Party singing Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” feels like it evokes that […]
If a tree gets played like a record, does it make a sound? (Yes)
“Dude…you ever notice that tree rings kinda look like grooves in a record?” “Dude! Whoa…totally!” (bong hit) “Dude…what if we built a thing that would play slices of trees like they were records?” “Man…’slices of trees’…that’s wild. Slices. Sliiicesss. Slices is a weird word, man! Slices!” “Dude! The tree thing—the record player. Focus!” “Oh yeah…yeah, […]
High hopes for my new mic
Finally got what is probably the second-most anticipated and wished-for item I’ve ever bought*, the Blue Yeti USB microphone. It is genuinely a thing of beauty: As you can gather from the “lyrics” of my first test recording, I have pretty high hopes for it: First Yeti test recording – microphone song *top prize has […]
Hulk and Xena and Arrow playing (animated gif)
Here’s a gif of Lake LA Porch Puppies Hulk, Xena, and Arrow, doing what they do…being adorable. See also: Hulk, Arrow, and Xena being cute together (17-second YouTube video taken moments after these photos)
Lucky Near-Misses Compilation Video (a.k.a. “Yikes!” x 50), or a Thought on Thankfulness
This is a fun/scary compilation of people barely avoiding catastrophic accidents. Aside from just being a rush to watch, I feel like it must be carrying a message about life in there too. I’ve had a few moments like these in the video–including one where I was sliding backwards at 50 MPH on a snow-packed […]

2012-13 Wrap-up, Part 2: Creative Stuff
Apparently 2013 wasn’t quite the total zero that my reflex memory says it was. Because when I went to tally some of my tangible creative accomplishments, I came up with all the stuff below….
