Old Man

I’m not yet able to write the sort of post I want. There’s a lot information about Israel and Russia that needs to be disseminated, but I’m not up to it. Also, a huge Middle Eastern media outlet is expressing interest in my posts about Yemen. I spoke to the reporter, and he said that…

Twisted

I’ve had a flu relapse. As my Dutch friend said, I have the “fluw,” which I pronounce—Netherlands style—as fluhv. That’s just how I feel. Fluhv. Physically and emotionally, I can’t muster the energy to post, so here’s one my favorite songs by one of my favorite singers, “Twisted” by Stan Ridgway. Today I came to…

About these Mohammed cartoon contests…

Today a protest called “Freedom of Speech Rally Round II” is being held in Phoenix, Arizona, as I write this post. The protest is taking place in front of the Islamic Community Center. This is where two jihadists worshiped before they were killed by police on May 3, 2015, as they attacked the Muhammad Art…

The first step is the hardest

Today is a milestone. I took the first step in my recovery from the past two years. Finally I went on a long walk. A physical-exercise walk, up steep hills. I’ll do this six days a week, the way I did before January 16, 2013, the day my parents told me that they had cancer….

Signs. Or not.

Since my parents died in 2013, a lot of really bizarre stuff has happened to me. Being in such close proximity to death for such a long time changed my perceptions. At least, that’s what I tell myself. What I used to think was weirdness I now accept as perfectly natural. In fact I no…

No post, but an announcement

First, a clarification. In “Withdraw, but don’t be upset,” I wrote the following. This is the secret about…

The main difference between us and animals

There are lots of differences between us and animals. We humans wear clothes, even if it’s just a penis sheath. Almost every group of us has a written language. We manufacture conveyances that defy the laws of nature, just so we can hurry from Point A to Point B. Last night it hit me that…

A recycled post

I’m too tired to write a new post, so here’s a recycled one from my old Website. I spent the day gathering video and photos in preparation for the Pierre Rehov interview. My swinish neighbors are having their weekly deafening party. Also, in two weeks Brother Cat has gone from a creature afraid of his…

Romance, rescue, and revenge

As far back as I can remember, I’ve been deeply affected by tales of romance, rescue, and revenge. It’s not a mystery why: We yearn for that which eludes us. I experienced true romance just once. It was only three years, and it ended more than two decades ago, but it still visits me in…

Leitmotifs

I must apologize for not keeping up on the e-mail correspondence and Facebook postings. This is a very difficult time for me, and it’s all because of a cat! Actually, Brother Cat is just symbolic of the leitmotifs that have defined me. A lot more is going on, but the damn cat is at the…
