I can’t believe he’s gone, and just before he was due to receive the Mark Twain comedy award. We’ll miss you, George.

New site

Thursday, June 12, 2008 at 10:56 am

I’m still considering the photoblog angle on here, but in the meantime, I’ve finally decided on a name for my photography endeavours (such as they are): Synesthesia Photography.

Synesthesia (or synaesthesia) is loosely defined as “senses coming together,” which is just a translation of the Greek (etymology: syn - together, esthesia from aesthesis - sensation). At its simplest level, synesthesia means that when a certain sense or part of a sense is activated, another unrelated sense or part of a sense is activated concurrently. For example, when someone hears a sound, he or she immediately sees a color or shape in his or her “mind’s eye.”

from the Synesthesia Project

That last sentence aptly describes concert photography to me. So there you are.

Seventeen on

Friday, May 2, 2008 at 2:30 pm

My youngest, my little boy who is no longer anywhere near little (6′2″ and growing, size 14 feet) turns 17 years old today. Since he doesn’t use Facebook (I KNOW!) or Twitter, my online birthday wishes will have to be posted here on my rarely-used blog.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIEFER!

Once again, as I did for my daughter two years ago, I’ll dedicate a 54-40 song to him:

And as for seventeen on
You think that, you know everything but you’ll fall, sometimes
Your life’s about a ton of choices and all emotions that turn and go
I believe there’s something that is coming, that we do not know

Seventeen on
Go you, where feeling is strong
Work your heart easy, set your love free
And if you get lost you can always come back, to me

You’ll worry about the future, sometimes deny your past
Waiting for an answer, too afraid to ask
You won’t sleep some nights, you won’t breathe some nights
You won’t ever find any peace some nights, and you’ll say “why me,
why me, oh why me?”

Seventeen on
Go you, where feeling is strong
Work your heart easy, set your love free
And if you get lost you can always come back, to me
To me

You’ll jump in the fire, jump in the sea
Sometimes you’ll think, how bad can it be
Don’t let it fool you, don’t let it move you
Don’t let it change, who you are
You are young, you are loved, you are all on

Seventeen on
Go you, where feeling is strong
Work your heart easy, set your love free
And if you get lost you can always come back, can always come
back, to me

I’m going to turn this site into a photoblog. My motivation to write has dwindled to nonexistent levels. Stay tuned.

Hollywood legend Charlton Heston dead at 84

Say what you will about his rabid support of the NRA, he was a screen legend. “Get your hands off me, you damn dirty ape!”

Actually, just this minute. The brutal winter we were subjected to is over!

Oh, wait, that wasn’t us.
