THERAPEUTIC SWEARING, MEDICAL MARIJUANA, CANCER

      Swearing, done in the right spirit, communicates so much more than long, drawn out, explanations. Besides, how often do you need the long version? I’ve investigated both swearing and medical marijuana and come to a few helpful conclusions for cancer patients. Instead of getting all macho and shocker, I’ve amended my profanity […]

WATERFRONT BLUES FESTIVAL OR BOOT CAMP

Five days of blues is a commitment. I signed to defend the blues by water. The Waterfront Blues Festival has nice river seating. For boats. The rest of us land locked fans see the blues flotilla as background, a tangled background combined with the Tillicum, Marquam, and Ross Island Bridges crossing their lines. When the […]

NOT A LOVE PRIORITY? HOW TO KNOW

A love priority changes your life. It also gives you the best excuse invented to dodge hard decisions. If you can’t do it with love, then you don’t do it? “I can’t do what you ask with love.

That’s you and me and every hair-dyed, botoxed, Elvis-girdle-wearing-but-calls-it-a-weight-belt boomer man and woman alive. Millennials aren’t turning on you, so relax. But they are persistent about […]

BABY BOOMER MUSEUM

The take away from a Baby Boomer Museum is awareness. A visit to a big museum should make you ask, “How do they decide what to keep?” It’s the same question you’ll ask later, wondering why you bought anything in the gift store. Unless you say, “I needed another tea towel,” you need a better […]

VICELAND, EMERALD TRIANGLE, FARMERS

Weed farmers vs corporate cannabis.   Farmers are the backbone of society. No farmer = no food is the usual view. No food means no happy people, no matter what North Korea says. Unhappy people means street fighting man comes out swinging. Then it’s taser, water cannon, arrests, trials, jail. Not a pretty picture anywhere. […]
