Loud or Not
Been a bit of a, I won’t say weird, but weird week (Jesus, those pipes doing pipe things in old houses sound like someone was just finishing up a shower upstairs) though I’ve surely heard weirder in other times, the usual solitary ones, in other old houses, but I have been in this one alone… Continue reading

God Made Trump (yeah, that was in error): A Song Revisit Plus “The Out Loud” Songs
Only mere days now until the coronation of a new and future King (and a protege too, a right hand millioned, billioned dollar money man). Imagine our luck!? It’s kind of invigorating really in these doldrums of post holiday blues, to be able to re-imagine our democracy in a new non-democratic light, almost like a… Continue reading
