On Fear, Anger and….Forgiveness?

An unpleasant truth is that human civilization has not progressed very much from the prehistoric times of roaming groups of hunters and gatherers. How warring tribes of humans went from great discoveries like fire and the wheel through to the iron ages and various industrial and technical revolutions and then progressed to this latest mess Read More

And When I Die

From the day I died, things started to get strange, but eerily familiar…but in a good way. The sky was blue as it once was, the clouds formed in natural white shapes. The air was warm and clean and fresh as if it had just rained on apple trees and fresh cut grass. The trees, Read More

When Soul Leaves Body (That Thing We Hope Never To See)

Most humans have an essence, an essential energy that keeps their body moving, their brain working with their body to find a use for itself and to somehow find meaning, joy, and purpose.

To some, he was the father of the American folk song Read More

Jarbidge, Nevada – I Don’t Know How Or Why…But Yet…

After six years and roughly 94,000 kilometers of accident-free, mostly liberating, healing, and blissful cancer-riddled motorcycle riding, I am convinced that heightened situational awareness, resilience, myopic vision quests, haphazard planning and action, as well as the healing vapors of motorcycle exhaust, are only some of the things that are proving the prognoses of experts and Read More

I was aware of their place in quintessential indie, DIY roots and college radio play but I never really got into their ever expanding catalogue of innovative and sometimes garage, LO-FI, sub four minute, odd pop rock sound. I stumbled on GBV while tune cruising on YouTube and Read More

I Just Can’t Shake It

The uneasy feeling persists. Every time I hit the road, and travel 6000 kms or more without incident, no matter how detailed my preparations, physical and mental, nagging questions work to niggling effect. “Where to now?” “Am I being sensible?” “By whose standards?” “Do I have my wallet?” “Keys?” “Where the hell are my keys?!” Read More
