  • ENOUGH!

    By on • ( 0 )

    I’m overdue.  I haven’t ranted in a while. I tried to take a more live and let live stance;  water rolling down my back, so to speak, but now… I can’t hold it in any longer. To all media.  Print,… Read More ›

  • I don’t wanna

    By on • ( 0 )

    I don’t want to write today. What I’d really like to do is fly. Not in a plane but with wings or on a magic carpet or something. I could be like the kid in the children’s story, The Little… Read More ›
