Signs in Life and The Jacket
Signs in Life and the Jacket. Life has a crazy flow and vibe, and things happen that are incomprehensible to us humans. But there is certainly an underlying layer the threads the eyes of the needles of life. There is just no other way to explain why and how things happen that are just too much of a coincidence to be just that. I call them the ‘Signs in Life.’ Actually, Bob Dylan called them the signs in life and...
Musical Candy – The Camden Monarch
May 1 I had flown across two continents for it, just to be a part of this night… England. London. Camden. The Monarch. Metalworks. It would be old bag of tricks in a new shirt. *In retrospect, I can say for sure from the evening that my lifestyle does not permit me to own a white shirt. I met Mike just after 18:00 and we went to a small establishment called Spiritual Bar to drink beer and catch up. Justin...
Michamvi Zanzibar: Empty Santa’s Sack
Michamvi Zanzibar: Empty Santa’s Sack. Dec 24 Christmas already? The Earth gets around the sun in a hurry! Spending Christmas day swimming in bathtub-warm turquoise blue waters is not such a bad way to spent the festive season. In the later afternoon I went to hang around with Ms. Tanzanian Pageant at her restaurant/bar where I helped her to blow up balloons and hang Christmas decorations. It is a white Christmas for me with perfect powder sand that makes everyone...
Coronach: Old Boys Club
Coronach: Old Boys Club. August 29. It was quite a day as a farmer. I walked over the hills through the pasture with a .22 rifle in search of gophers to hunt, but there are none around. I walked for a mile and a half through the pasture to the field where my brother and my father are working and I never shot a bullet. I collected a cow-skull though, so the walk was not futile. My brother Matt...
Big Beaver: Slipping into my Old Self
Big Beaver: Slipping into my Old Self. August 21. I got up this morning to a stack of mail on my dresser old. I am probably the only person may age in Canada with his high school bedroom basically untouched. I went through my mail and thanked people for Christmas cards that I just received now. My plan was to only be home for a few days but I will likely be home for a couple of weeks. There are...
Regina to Big Beaver: Home, Home on the Range
Regina to Big Beaver: Home, Home on the Range. August 20. When I woke up this morning I had no idea where I was initially. Then I realized I was in Bean’s bed. I heard Steve moving around. I remembered Kelly saying last night that she was going to cook us waffles in the morning. Steve sent her a message and we went over for an awesome breakfast. It is really nice to be home. I had no idea how...
La Paz: How Did it Get to This?
La Paz: How Did it Get to This? May 12 Well, it got ugly last night in La Paz. I had altitude sickness all day after we got down from Huayna Potosi, but my night time I was feeling quite celebratory. The English boys and I got at the booze, and I decided to drink hard liquor, which never works out well for me. But it was my birthday at midnight. I blacked out most of the night, but I...
