Goofs and Gadflies: December 2005
http://ryestar.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 11, 2005. The only constant is change. It's the pace of change that can be unnerving. I have lost a lot of my definition. I have found that the undefined have a definite difficulty with definition. Since a lot of what I do here is the definitive "me", I definitely have defaulted to desolation and blog dereliction. This ain't au revoir, it's goodbye." - Roger Waters, Radio KAOS. Be back in a few to continue being a gadfly. Posted by Rye at 7:18 AM. I write, so you don't have to.

Goofs and Gadflies: August 2005
http://ryestar.blogspot.com/2005_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 25, 2005. Sweet, sweet burn. Of sun and summer wind. And you my friend. My new fun thing. What can't be discerned from our winged wonders of the hinterland is the emotional cost of this surreal life. Penguins are compelled to do what they must to survive. Humanity is often the other way around. Humanity revels in the drama of life. It diffuses the focus of reality and allows us a momentary reprieve from the responsibilities of like, say, sanity?

Goofs and Gadflies: October 2005
http://ryestar.blogspot.com/2005_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 24, 2005. There's so much I need to say to you,. So many reasons why;. You're the only one who really knew me at all" - Phil Collins. How can I be so content, so happy, and yet so sad, all at the same time? What causes this caustic conflagration of comical calamity to incite such a multiplicity of emotion? Why do I have to feel all of it? Can I just not be swayed by one predominant set of reactions? Something to cloud my judgment and objectivity? Back to square one. No, it does not. I...

Goofs and Gadflies: What you Get.
http://ryestar.blogspot.com/2006/05/what-you-get.html
Wednesday, May 24, 2006. So how do we maintain our connections? And by we, I mean "I". But this blog isn't about me, at least not in the sense that I write about things exclusive to my life. I hope that the subjects in these missives are as universal as the floppy breasts on the centerfold of National Geographic. Posted by Rye at 5:37 PM. Time to quit your job and go backpacking around europe. I'm just glad to have the chance to read your writing again. Glad you are well. Im just glad your nuts are OK.

Goofs and Gadflies: A Post on Censorship
http://ryestar.blogspot.com/2011/02/post-on-censorship.html
Wednesday, February 16, 2011. A Post on Censorship. This is a joint statement by many bloggers about the recent ban on VIN and the actions taken against VIN and the companies that advertise on the site. Kudos to R. Gil Student for drafting this statement and to the other bloggers who were primarily responsible for pushing the effort forward. To the best of our understanding, this activity is illegal. One individual told us he reported that harassment to the police. If he calls or e-mails you or your orga...

Goofs and Gadflies: April 2005
http://ryestar.blogspot.com/2005_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 23, 2005. Getting Your Ducks in a Line. As Jews all over the world once again start packing for their week long exodus from Egypt (and bagels, for that matter), my thoughts fall esoterically towards the nature of progress. We all have that friend, the one who's day-timer is more rigidly structured than the Eiffel Tower, right? Is progress achieved through the taking of steps, or through the measuring of those steps? On the other hand, we have those people who fly by the seat of their pant...

Goofs and Gadflies: May 2005
http://ryestar.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 30, 2005. If there is one notion to cling to, and only one, it is that life is precious. "Don't Panic" comes a close second. (tm Douglas Adams. While it's true that Life is Beautiful ( tm Benigni. Holding forth the primacy that life is precious instills a greater sense of personal responsibility to look both ways before crossing the street. But I have always been more of a merlot fan (especially Pomerol). I think that all things work out over time. The trick is, they just might not work o...

Tuesday, May 14, 2013. She wanted me to write a eulogy. I spoke recently to observe the yahrzeit of my Mother. Many people expressed their appreciation and wanted to share with people who couldn't make it. I figure I would throw it up here so this place doesnt look as abandoned as. What is wrong with Christianity, Buddhism or any other religion for that matter? Posted by Rye at 4:50 PM. Subscribe to Post Comments [ Atom. I write, so you don't have to. View my complete profile.
