• Kind of Blue

    What music fits depending on day?

    Right about now I think I need some classical music.

    When my head is filled with endorphins, especially after a run, give me something a little more upbeat likeThe Tragically Hip

    If I’m cooking, I like something full or out of the 70s.

    Painting at night it’s jazz or something a little multi layered.

    In the car, I rarely listen to music, which is a change for me. Then again, I don’t drive all that much.

    I used to have six stations in my car pre-plays and they haven’t changed much. I have a jazz station, classical station, NPR and the college radio station.

    Of course there are no rules when it comes to listen to music only overwriting generalities.

    In the words of Peter Shickley, if it sounds good, it is good.

    This is probably the most played album in my entire collection.

  • The United States is not the land of equal opportunity. We worship celebrities and they are above due process.

    Wrexham, a second division soccer team gets all the headlines because they have rich celebrity owners. I personally don’t care and I don’t go out of my way to root against them. I certainly don’t root for them.

    Fucking Katy Perry goes to space. What a waste of resources and a display of privilege. All she can do is sing a few bad songs really well.

    The big orange blob can walk down the middle of Broadway and kill somebody and he’s above the law. The bankruptcy laws were made for him, and he commits a felony he doesn’t go to jail.

    And we have people sitting in jail for having a joint in their pocket.

    Or for Simply being in black.

  • My Favorite Restaurant

    What is your favorite restaurant?

    Is this restaurant on 32nd and Aberdeen. It is all vegan and no animal products are used in their food..

    All the food that is left over gets donated to a food bank.

    You pay as much as you’re able to pay and those who can pay more pay more.

    There’s a juke box at each table you can play whatever song you so desire.

    And the featured dish is my homemade vegan macaroni and cheese.

    And they have really cool, bumper stickers.

    I made this up, but it sounds nice. I would eat there.
