I’m mad that Harrison Ford and Steve Martin didn’t play brothers in a movie that only exists in my head. My point is that every day thousands of things don’t get made or started. Some of them could have been masterpieces. All the elements t

Would you like to meet my personal CD player collection? I'm heading to Mexico in a few days and I'm debating which of my players to bring. I have a modular bluetooth transmitter that works with all of them, but typically I'm

People in my social circle know I like cassettes and often funnel old collections my way. I just received a box with 85 vintage cassettes. Probably 50% will be unplayable from warping of the outer shell (these are often pulled out of an att

Cassettes are also ticking up in sales and major artists like Taylor Swift are releasing new material on cassette. Obviously this is a very niche market but I find it fascinating that physical formats are being appreciated again. I'm k

I’m curious what the generational divide is for this. I’m 57, love tech and enjoy the positive side of the internet in limited doses. But I find most social media boring. There is incredible and AMAZING art, accidental moments, serious disc

There is a dark strand in many fundamentalist Christian and Islamic beliefs that portend a judgement day brought on by world destroying calamity. There are evangelical Christian’s who cheer on for a nuclear conflict between Israel and their

Having been around wild leopards in Africa, and worked around nearly all the big cats - leopards scare me the most. A tiger or lion can be confused by unexpected behavior which can delay or slow an attack. Leopards are the most single-minde

I’m a relative newcomer to a comfortable, middle class life in the U.S. One of my biggest terrors is falling back into poverty. However, most of my friends and colleagues are all too happy to live beyond their means. People I know who have

As someone who makes decent income via royalties from my copyrighted work, I object to this proposal. Purely from a record keeping perspective, the additional work required for my small business would add a considerable burden. And my accou

I've always been fascinated by the idea that intelligence lies within a spectrum. Someone might be incredibly smart about a narrow topic or field, yet be blind to their own stupidity within another realm. To me, this seems like a class

This strikes home for me. I come from an extended family of laborers and addicts. All of us had the same future: miserable work, low wages, multiple bankruptcies, and early death. I’m 57. I’ve worked as a photographer for 32 years, made a g

My idiot brother shot a county Sheriff during a traffic stop many years ago. The entire thing was captured on a dash cam so there was no doubt who did it. He immediately ran and was never captured . These camera types were placed around his
