Audio Demo

Please excuse the vocals in the clip below… and please don’t laugh. I admit that I’m not a terrific singer… terrifying, maybe. You be the judge And NO… emphatically… I was NOT drunk.

Ok… Update on why this was posted earlier without any meaningful notes. First, the obvious. It was done [...]

Shakespeare - in the 21st Century?

On 01 September, 2008, just one week after Myrna’s return from the “lost weekend” mentioned in my previous post… and with me still caught up in the euphoria of our relationship having revived for one month (after I thought I’d ended it at the end of April)… I had a writing spasm late that night.
The [...]

Meditation Basics From The Beach
