The arc of circling bodies is determined by the length of their tether. Moons, coins, men." - Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian. Saturday, November 9, 2013. Intentional anonymity, or Un? This post is not about the amusing/appalling mayor of Toronto, I swear; but for reasons you'll understand shortly, I have to open with a quote from a story about him in this week's Newsweek. The icky conclusion I've come to is that Ford chose the perfect drug to abuse. Opinion is this, really? Period. Again, not, "Who ...

The arc of circling bodies is determined by the length of their tether. Moons, coins, men." - Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian. Wednesday, July 6, 2011. The summer of 1971, I was 11 years old. Sixth grade was behind me. "Middle school" loomed ahead. Both parents worked. I and my two sisters were tended to by a nanny. Her name was Mary. Her son's, John and Jerry had been my playmates on and off for years. I lived To Kill a Mockingbird. And I'll Fly Away. And The Martian Chronicles. Fast forward forty years.

The arc of circling bodies is determined by the length of their tether. Moons, coins, men." - Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian. Thursday, September 15, 2011. Shem Creek and Sydni. Update: Okay, the original post is still below, but I find I need to apologize to those who know me and know my dog. I am so sorry for scaring everyone. Especially. Both my oldest daughters, my sister, and my former spouse. Sydni is still with us and doing great for a 13 year old dog. Especially when she's sleeping, which is most.

The arc of circling bodies is determined by the length of their tether. Moons, coins, men." - Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian. Tuesday, May 3, 2011. Bring out the Lollipops. Funny how I get my news these days. I was skydiving all day Saturday and Sunday (eleven jumps, all with people new to the sport), so my first inkling of the biggest news of the last few days came in the form of a text from one of my daughters: "Good morning! Happy bin Laden is dead day! Subscribe to: Comment Feed (RSS). The thoughts,...

The arc of circling bodies is determined by the length of their tether. Moons, coins, men." - Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian. Friday, May 20, 2011. When did that happen? I played golf last week. First round I've played in Richmond, after living here almost two years. Rotary Club tournament. Captain's choice format. We finished four under par. Had a great time. Why blog about it? Which of the two choices would most people not. Not that I seek to shock. I don't really. I simply seek to be anything...Aware...

The arc of circling bodies is determined by the length of their tether. Moons, coins, men." - Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian. Tuesday, May 1, 2012. Back in 1977, one fine Friday night before a SAMI (Saturday Morning Inspection), having finished polishing the floor, making the quarter-bouncing beds that we dared not sleep in. While the can was in my hand, kinetic. During the trip to floor, and now, explosive. All things considered, it's a wonder I survived that night and the ire of my roommates. I was pu...
