I was born in 1954, the year of rock & roll and Brown v. Board. I retired from 25 years as a Spanish teacher in 2019. I now spend my days and nights reading, hiking, playing chaotic electronic music, and chasing deep sky objects with my telescope.

Of course one can avoid that whole hornets nest by not applauding in the first place.

Water Remembers played at B-Side Records & Vintage (Milwaukie, Oregon) tonight. That's Vic Sabula on the right, me on the left. Weird improvised ambient/noise guitar. We have stuff at YouTube if you want to know what we sound like.

Here's a riddle: Ivanka, Eric, Junior & 47 are all stranded in a lifeboat with little hope of rescue any time soon. They discover that there is only enough food & water onboard for one person. Which one kills the other three, and how does she do it?

But what about the other inmates? Won't someone PLEASE think about them?!?!

Every time he refers to Greene as "Brown" he explains it in parentheses. If you feel the need to explain a "joke" every time you tell it, maybe comedy is not your calling.

They were saying the same thing about German immigrants in the 1800s. If your surname was, well, just to pick a random example, Drumpf, there were a lot of people who said you should be deported back to Germany.

Yeah, like when he says he’s going to lower drug prices by 1500% and all the people around him remind him that it’s not mathematically possible.

“Because I just don’t know enough about it.”

Wow, his first-ever moment of honesty!

Hey, white men really REALLY wanted those plastic straws. I mean peace is nice and all, but not when you have to use paper straws.

Yeah, and a lot of people knew that, but they really wanted those plastic straws.

It's all over except for the shooting part & the blowing stuff up part & and the grieving parents wailing in the streets over the dead bodies of their children part. All done!

I have been the target of religiously-motivated violence on several occasions. In every one of those instances, the perpetrators identified as Christian.

He should have just blamed Biden & the Deep State. Then the NYT would have been happy and they'd have left him alone.

"Give me Your Face" by Young Snakes. They were an early '80s Boston band, featuring Aimee Mann. The guitar player and drummer were friends of mine, but Aimee disliked me rather intensely, I think because I smoked weed. She was very anti-drug. That said, great band.

Do you mean that you NEVER listen to music, or that you don't listen to the music you use in your videos?

Those are all great things, but if 47 hadn’t spent that money on his war of choice, he’d have just used it to buy more of that gaudy gold leaf that he thinks will fill the vacuum where his soul should be.

I thought Branson, Missouri was the white homeland.
