I want to be this bird.
I took this photo a few years ago. Back in Southampton, Ontario, while on one of my endless morning walks along the beach. I could walk forever along that lake’s shore.
Now, in the picture, had I the option of setting the bird in the position [...]

No time to write anything but I did want to tap this out … I saw Donald Sutherland interviewed on some show earlier this week. At one point, he said:
“Passion alone is a remedy against boredom.”
Yes.

There are so many things I don’t understand it would probably knock the Blogger servers offline if I were to try and list them all. So I’ll stick to just one:Why is my beard gray?
I would understand it if my hair was gray, but it’s not. Only the beard (or goatee, if you prefer). [...]

Most of you can ignore this post. Normally, I would ignore it too - I certainly wouldn’t be making posts like this. But, it needs saying …
Although essentially a pansy, an artsy kind of geek who prefers books and films, my inner barbarian insists on having his voice every so often.
In the midst of [...]

Or perhaps you don’t. You probably need to understand that this is something like 8:20 or 8:30 in the morning. The sun, in other words, is just not entering my place early enough anymore. I require light to wake up - I don’t believe in loud noises, especially radio [...]

Fear not. That grim sky has [...]

This is an odd one. It’s my contribution to Flash Fiction Friday #10 over at Purgatorian. It’s odd because it’s not so much a story as a story about a story. This one really had me buggered up which is why it probably feels a bit disatisfying. Anyway, it seems to me to be more [...]

Well, I’ll be … No sooner did a post my whine (see post below) about the weather and how I was feeling today than damned if the sun didn’t come out!
Does this mean God gets RSS feeds? Does he have a Bloglines account? Does he visit Crazy Ass Planet on an ongoing basis?
I am humbled. [...]

You might think that autumn and fall are the same thing but they are not. Autumn is russet and gold and roughly three days long. Fall is winter without snow and goes on interminably.
Today, while not as wet as yesterday, is just as gray and indolent. It also has [...]

It is one of those days. Not as cool as I thought it would be. But it’s wet. The rain drowns all my great intentions, whatever they were. Most were related to actually doing something constructive.
The cat is curled and sleeping after having stuck out her tongue at me in a disdainful gesture of [...]
