BLOGRIZZARD: Places I Miss: Quincy Park, Parkersburg, WV
http://blogrizzard.blogspot.com/2010/03/places-i-miss-quincy-park-parkersburg.html
Tuesday, March 9, 2010. Places I Miss: Quincy Park, Parkersburg, WV. I'd spent an entire year in Parkersburg before discovering this jewel of a park. It's a bit off the beaten track, not that easy to find (if you're not a local), but the view is glorious. The park overlooks downtown Parkersburg, the Ohio River, and Belpre, Ohio, just across the river. The view from Quincy Park inspires me to seek out the most stunning, panoramic views of any city I visit. These photographs, found on Flickr,.

BLOGRIZZARD: Arcade Fire: Are They The New U2?
http://blogrizzard.blogspot.com/2010/08/arcade-fire-are-they-new-u2.html
Tuesday, August 24, 2010. Arcade Fire: Are They The New U2? It took me a while to discover Arcade Fire. They seemed kind of pretentious, and way overblown. I wondered why their live performances required nearly a dozen people. I wondered why so many people loved them (they've played high profile gigs at Coachella and Lollapolooza, not to mention TV appearances on Letterman, SNL, and The Daily Show). So, I ignored them. Some more things to like:. 8226; Dave Grohl of Nirvana and Foo Fighters once said he l...

BLOGRIZZARD: What Is "Indie" Rock
http://blogrizzard.blogspot.com/2010/08/what-is-indie-rock.html
Monday, August 23, 2010. What Is "Indie" Rock. I'm 42 years old. Over the years I've listened to a lot of music. I've seen a lot of bands. I've attempted to write and record rudimentary songs. A couple of them aren't half bad! As a moderately educated white man, my musical tastes lean toward Indie Rock. If you're not sure what I mean by "Indie Rock," well, I'm thinking about bands like The Smiths, early R.E.M., The Replacements, and more recently, Arcade Fire. Here's my take on "Indie" Rock. Basically, M...

BLOGRIZZARD: A Poetic Wall
http://blogrizzard.blogspot.com/2010/05/poetic-wall.html
Monday, May 3, 2010. The design, the photography - "lyrical" is the best way to describe it. A wall is just a wall. But with some creativity, it can become a poem. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

BLOGRIZZARD: Why The Arizona Immigration Law Is Unconstitutional
http://blogrizzard.blogspot.com/2010/05/why-arizona-law-is-unconstitutional.html
Thursday, May 6, 2010. Why The Arizona Immigration Law Is Unconstitutional. As a White man, I won't enjoy equal protection. Under Arizona SB 1070 — I'll enjoy enhanced protection. Super-sized protection. Protection that violates the 14th Amendment. 8226; If I am attacked and beaten in a random act of violence, I won't hesitate to report the crime to the police, because I know that, as a White man, I won't be asked to "show my papers.". While driving through Arizona, we're pulled over for a traffic violat...

BLOGRIZZARD: Conan: Take a Reality Check
http://blogrizzard.blogspot.com/2010/05/conan-take-reality-check.html
Monday, May 3, 2010. Conan: Take a Reality Check. Conan O'Brien didn't get to be Johnny Carson, so he's very sad and depressed. If you don't believe me, check out his beard. As every White American Man knows, when we're sad and depressed we grow a beard. We just can't be bothered with shaving. I sort of felt sorry for him, until I remembered a few facts:. 8226; He was paid $32 million to walk away from his contract. When most of us lose our jobs, we're lucky to get 2 weeks' severance pay.

BLOGRIZZARD: Get Ready For Green Walls
http://blogrizzard.blogspot.com/2010/05/get-ready-for-green-walls.html
Thursday, May 20, 2010. Get Ready For Green Walls. We live and work in environments that separate us from nature. Why? I suppose there's a reason for this — our natural world is beautiful, but it can be a dangerous and deadly place. When we hang a painting of a nature scene on a wall, we're trying to bring a bit of the natural world inside. We're trying to make the wall seem a bit less lifeless. We're trying to reconnect with our natural spirit. Brentus Woodus Maximus Flavius said. I have been tracking t...
