About Me

On my worst days I can out crazy Daniel Johnston. I've fallen into depressions so deep I'd sleep for twenty-two hours a day for weeks straight, and I have such severe Tourette's Syndrome that a number of doctors thought it was Epilepsy. Our living room could double as a psychiatric hospitals dispensary.
We're currently working on recording a second side to our first album. The idea for the new songs was originally to be based on broken translations of English phrases, either found in books (like River Town), or seen on t-shirts in foreign subway stations. They evolved, and will hopefully be posted in changing forms soon.

We're long time vegetarians and completely in love with our dog, Ramona, and cats Tricky and Woo - named for the Dylan song and Mrs. Pumphrey's dog in All Creatures Great and Small.
Handmade by Danielle, with international shipping available, and proceeds often going to what we hope you'll agree with us are worthy causes:

A bunch of Anniversary

We celebrated our 4th anniversary a few days ago. So yes, we're older looking than in our picture. I have a beard, circles under my eyes, probably less hair, but I've thought I've been losing that s...

Poverty is sort of the new theme. I started a photo album about it, but it's going to take some time.Cleveland has been named America's poorest major city of the year several times already this centu...

Drums and bass

We finished tracking, and are a good ways into mixing things. I woke up to some of Tim Luntzel's playing almost every day without realizing it for the longest time. He played on a lot of Bright Ey...

A petition to set up a "Do Not Mail" list

The idea is pretty much just like the Do Not Call list, but for junk mail. Recycling paper is still very energy intensive, it's far better for the environment to snip junk mail in the bud. I read so...

A little piece of nonfiction (for Pennsylvania Democrats)

Should you find yourself thinking about oinking like a pig

I think I read something once about how of all the senses, smells makes the most lasting impressions on people. I believe most people fall into certain categories, me included. I drive a VW wagon, a...

Its like a Rube Goldberg contraption for Democratic Senators

This is for those of you who also lean to the left. Regardless of how this business with the Super Delegates plays out, Barack or Hillary will be able to do much more with a stronger Democratic major...

My dream is for Andre Rieu to join the Trans-Siberian Orchestra

Imagine the fund-raising possibilities for PBS. I can’t wait for the pledge drive to be over.
