Cecil, that was fascinating. Thanks for posting it. I, too, had never even heard of this man, though I had heard the term "Clark's Folly." Two things that really made me perk up, even gave me chills a little bit...On slide 14 it says Clark's second wife Anna's maiden name was La Chapelle. I dated a ...

This little valkyrie by my side You don’t even want to try. She’s not my woman, though I’m her man. So come on if you think you can. See the broadsword on her back, The way she holds her arms relaxed? Is that a smile on her lips, Dirk and dagger on her hips? Can’t you see by the fire in her eyes She...

Many years ago I was strolling through the South Park Blocks, near the PSU campus, tripping with a buddy late one night. I found this thing, a poster, stuck to the side of a mailbox with rice paste or something, and it was fresh, still wet and easily peeled off, like it had just been done, and I was...

Thanks for all the time.

Peace,

Something I forgot to mention about that year, 1999...Skip Snyder, the best boss I ever had, died that year...on my birthday, the same night I tried to kill myself, if I must be brutally honest. He was 52. He'd been struck by a car two weeks before. He was home from the hospital and said to be okay....

Dedicated to my little lady, the Little Valkyrie by my side, who isn't really my lady; she's her won woman. But she's my little lady, too. Amen.

Peace,

The Taliban is a minority group of Afghani citizens. So, yes, it is both. The soldiers you saw shooting were likely shoot...

I've written many letters in my life, many of which were never sent. I wrote once to the Dalai Lama, when I heard he would be coming to Portland the following year. That's in the never sent category. I decided, who was I to be sending a letter to the Dalai Lama. As it turned out, my mother bought me...

Non Sum, going back to my earlier question to you regarding government regulation of business and industry, how do you think the situation surrounding Toyota should be (have been) handled? What I'm asking is, should we, the people, and our elected and appointed government representatives wait for po...

I saw a report last night detailing the rules of engagement. If you're an American or NATO soldier in Afghanistan and someone shoots at you from behind, if you turn around and see someone with a gun, you may shoot back. If you see someone but see no gun, you may not. If you are an American or NATO s...

Gay is literally my mother's middle name.

And my little brother is retarded.

The misappropriation of these two words has long pissed me off.

People who use them inapprpriately are dicks.

Indeed, dude. Ten years of pain and magic.

Five years getting there,
One year in hell,
Four years climbing back out.

Thanks.

Very much enjoyed the trip. Thanks.
