About Me


“The hottest places in hell are reserved for those who, in times of great moral crisis, maintain their neutrality” – Dante Alighieri
“I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it” – author Evelyn Beatrice Hall, paraphrasing Voltaire
“You’re thrown the worst fear that can ever be hurled, the fear to bring children into the world. For threatening my baby unborn and unnamed, you ain’t worth the blood that runs in your veins” – Bob Dylan, from "Masters of War"
"That until the philosophy which holds one race superior and another inferior is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned; That until there are no longer first-class and second class citizens of any nation; That until the color of a man's skin is of no more significance than the color of his eyes; That until the basic human rights are equally guaranteed to all without regard to race; That until that day, the dream of lasting peace and world citizenship and the rule of international morality will remain but a fleeting illusion, to be pursued but never attained" - Haile Selassie I .. .. ..

Music is my Girlfriend

It's truly amazing how, when you're feeling down about certain things, one song can pick you back up in a heartbeat. And every time it happens, it validates for me my belief that true divinity that ca...

New Alcohol Policy

So, I have a new policy concerning my alcohol consumption. This probably isn't going to surprise anyone greatly, but I figured I will make myself as clear as I can with regards to this. Don't take the...

Robert Kennedy

For whatever reason, I've been thinking a lot about Robert Kennedy lately. Maybe because the anniversary of his assassination passed earlier this month, or maybe because of the unfortunate remark Hil...

Pabst Blue Ribbon

Several weeks ago, I had seen the David Lynch movie "Blue Velvet" for the first time. Excellent film. However, there was one line in the movie that - as I remembered it - was particularly iconic and r...

No Future for You

I don't know how most of you feel about this, but I had been very proud of my home state the past few years. Being the only state in the United States to legally allow gay marriage, I really thought i...
