To be one's self, and unafraid whether right or wrong, is more admirable than the easy cowardice of

About Me

Creator of confusion, chaos, and bad Kharma for those who cross me. A storyteller, writer, horticulturist, crisis specialist and general n'er do well. Excellent cook, terrible musician, potential AVN nominee.

My Interests

Music, food, growing roses and trees and being a good husband and father

I'd like to meet:

Writers, artists, cooks, those who walk on societies darker side, people of true faith and those who travel, like myself, in so many circles they forget sometimes who they were.

Music:

We do all kinds round here...

Movies:

I watch all kinds, except horror. If I want to see monsters, I know where to go.

Television:

CSI, all flavors.

Books:

I read three or four a month. I highly recommend Anne Rice's newest.

Heroes:

firefighters, good teachers, soilders

Yeah, still alive...

But not for lack of trying otherwise. I sit here trying to organize a few months worth of back paperwork of my own, an attempt in futility at its finest. I know when my bills are due, I do ...

Its not me, the mojitos are talking

God bless the poor Cuban people. Not only have they been hammer slapped by hurricanes in the past month, but they never get credit due for creating such perfect things. The Mojito - a mixture of lime ...

Trying to reason with hurricane season

It just turned 11 pm. To the far south of me friends, family and Galveston are getting the hell beat out of them by Hurricane Ike. The Weather Channel is doing their usual live coverage, the reporter...

Later days...

I got nothing. Nothing in the pipeline as some would say.No words worth typing, no stories of my own worth telling. Only thing I'm writing until otherwise advertised is my novels. I've tried three tim...

Rolling hard, rolling fast, rolling by...

Respect to REK for the title theft. That song talked about a small town in west Texas that was dead and didn't know it. Much like any number of small towns anywhere in rural America. Towns that ...

Last look.....a short story

The view from the window never changes. The colors of the grass vary of course, season to season, month to month. As do the flowers that grow along the edge of the woods. Occasionally a bird or rabbit...

Viva la Vida..a short story inspired by the song of the same name..

"I used to rule the worldSeas would rise when I gave the word.Now in the morning I sleep alone,Sweep the streets I used to own." He was an old man that liked to sit outside of the local feed store whe...

Wreck

It happens fast. You look down at the radio, a glance at the station number. One hand on the wheel, one holding your morning Dr. Pepper. Suddenly, no warning, no sound, the car skids. The back end kic...

By the numbers...

35 - how old I'll be in 13 days. No happy birthday needed, save them for my soul brother Fidel Castro, born the same day. 235 - a number that is pissing me off....see earlier blog for details 200 - n...
