Are you sick of all the reminders of Hurricane Katrina flashing on your TV screen as we approach the one-year anniversary of this horrific event? Just wait until the 5th anniversary of 9/11, waiting just around the corner. Have you grown numb to human suffering? Do you utter the empty words of...

Diets suck. I rarely get on one. Oh sure, I've tried one or two of those fad diets. But I have never lasted longer than ummm a DAY! I love food.  I love veggies, fruits, dark leafy greens. I love juice. I love all the stuff that is good for me, so then WHY diet? Actually, I think...

Usually I blog about my daily life here - today, I decided to share some of my internal life... which blossoms into my profession as a Life and Creativity Coach. We live in microwave oven-Veruca Salt society that screams, “I want it NOW!” without regard for the precious pace that...

For one B-town rock band, the 90s in Bakersfield meant the 60s revisited. That band was Brian Jones was Murdered. Their name read like an unequivocal news headline, and the name pretty much summarized the band and what they represented. They were a bold back-to-basics retro act with a...

Yes, I took the plunge, and faced the challenge...TO AUDITION FOR A LOCAL PLAY!! (Not as bad as the one portrayed in one of my favorite horror flicks) I was pretty tired from my gig the night before with my band at Fishlips, but I don't like to flake, and I was getting some pretty good...

If you haven't heard of KERN COUNTY CHRISTIAN POP KING, then my question is: Where have you been? It started today, Saturday, August 19, 2006. It never ends. So far, we have one contestant who wins by default until another Kern County Christian Pop King contestant steals his crown....

SOB

I just posted my follow up (where I explain my personal view on spirituality) and it ran a long while.   Then it signed me out and I lost everything I wrote.  I'm not doing it again, so, you'll have to wait (I know you're all upset)

No, I'm not ready to impeach him. Besides, how do you impeach a rock star? I'm a big fan and have been for many years. But I did recently challenge him with a song of mine (recently added to the playlist at WFMU in New York City), and at least one critic dared to stand up and take notice. See...
