The World, Famously Yours.

About Me

My mind is a conduit to the writer's pen. I admit a certain curiousity about Life and people and events, and I am always in search of a new "something" to learn. Share a laugh with me and I will love you forever. Experience a moment of genuine human contact with me and I will make an impression on you that lasts forever.My heart is the wind. body { position:relative; left:0px; top:0px; z-index:0; background-color:003366;}a:link, a:visited, .redtext, .redbtext, a.redlink:link, a.redlink:hover { color:003366; } a:link:hover, a:visited:hover { color:CCCCCC; }.blacktext10, .orangetext15, .whitetext12, .nametext, .btext, table.friendsComments tr td { color:000000; }object, embed { visibility:visible; position:absolute; top:788px; left:50%; right:50%; margin-left:-385px; }.comments embed, .comments object { display:inline; visibility:visible; position:relative; top:0px; margin-left:0px; left:0px; right:0px; }.navbar{visibility:visible;} .navigationBar font {visibility:hidden;} table,tr,td{background-color: transparent;border-style: none;} .navigationBar tr td { background-color:transparent; } .interestsAndDetails, .userProfileDetail, .userProfileURL, .contactTable, .profileInfo, .latestBlogEntry, .extendedNetwork, .orangetext15 { display:none; }table.friendsComments img {max-width:300px; height:auto;} .friendsComments font {visibility:visible;} table tr tr td img { border-color:4e607b; } table tr td div div a.text {visibility:hidden; border:0px!important; background-color:transparent;}

My Interests

Writing and photography. There is a sweet serenity in observing the world one word and one moment at a time.

The Coolest Groups in MySpace:

The MySpace Men's Club

Hidden Garden of the Raven Goddess

I'd like to meet:

Cole Porter, to experience his vision; Nat Cole, for his music and his optimism; Lewis Carroll, to appreciate his definition of Love. And the Hypno-Toad. View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment

..

Music:

Jazz, soft and sweet, is my thing. Nat Cole, Billie Holliday, Vanessa Daou cover the distance. Neil Diamond, Barry Manilow and The Stylistics on the pop side. Trance is King, especially remixes of Depeche Mode. The Beatles make make my mind take flight.

Movies:

Death of a Salemsan (far and away the best ever); Summer of '42, Somewhere in Time, Myra Breckinridge, Vanilla Sky and most assuredly Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolfe.

Television:

The Twilight Zone, Madmen, The L Word, Washington Journal, Curb Your Enthusiam, Entourage and Real Time with Bill Maher.

Books:

Winesburg, Ohio, Where The Wild Things Are, Pet Sematary, Ghost Story and The Shining.

Heroes:

My mother, Cassanova and man who discovered fire.

And so it goes, ladies and gentlemen.  A place to hybernate, decompensate,  commissurate and evaluate has now become an object of hate.  Not mine, of course.  I'm referring to...

Meet Willie the Stalker

Love is a powerful thing.  Love is a drug, in the purest sense of the word; it moves our emotions in ways that we don't anticipate---couldn't have anticipated.  Love sometimes leads to obses...

The Politics of Duplicity

Sen. Obama’s campaign will survive the Wright "scandal," as well as surviving any of the thinly-veiled race-based attacks.  And before anyone says it, I am suggesting that attempting to pa...

Agnosticism, in the present sense.

I am the fallen hero; the side of the story not ending in salvation and applause.  I am the consequence of unrewarded faith; the absence of reward in light of virtue.  This consequence, I re...

The Last Beautiful Woman

And she was there, a whisper of a memory of a moment long ago. A reminder of what was, and of how I felt as a younger man in more innocent times. The room's light cast golden across her troubled brow,...

Is MySpace Anti-Family?

I'm sitting at the computer ready to write a draft of a blog about my mother, and I go to select for the blog subject category "FAMILY," when I notice there ain't any.  You can't select "FAMILY" ...

A Good Tongue-Lashing.

I must confess, dear Reader mine, this poem is not of my mind. It was, entirely by chance, a byproduct of happenstance. An errant wish, as you will see, escaped from archived memory. So tell me t...
