NEW VACUUM SHOWS DIRT, OLD VACUUMS KEEP IT IN THE BAG

Old vaccums didn’t show dirt like new vacuum cleaners. They hid it all in a bag. And that bag filled up tighter than a old feather pillow compressed by years of thrashing sweat and bad dreams. Some dirt bags even look like pillows, but don’t substitute. You’d end up resting your head on […]

NW LIFESTYLE WRITER? WHAT’S A NW LIFESTYLE WRITER?

So glad you asked about a NW lifestyle writer, but what is it? What’s it mean to be a NW lifestyle writer? I suppose you could rent a room and look out the window and describe rain as a NW lifestyle writer, but that ain’t living. Like Red said in Shawshank Redemption, […]

Male Abuse Handled The Man Way Works For Women

Sports talk star Jim Rome has the sort of face that asks to be punched. He’s that good, my favorite sports personality. And he talks the best smack on radio, hands down. Even his respectful interviews even sound like verbal male abuse. I grew up during the reign of Howard Cosell, […]

ABIQUA FALLS DREAMSCAPE, OREGON TREASURE

CIGARETTE SMOKE ‘EM IF YOU GOT ‘EM? DON’T DO IT

Tobacco and cigarette smoke, the stuff of dreams and nightmares. The dream part comes first. Light a stick and enjoy. All you’ve got to do is breath in, breath out, and watch the cigarette smoke curl into shapes. Later comes the nightmare part, the regret, the tubes, the hospital smell, the faces […]
