Except perhaps the vacation part. (Too bad there is so little of that.) Even as a child i wasn’t the biggest fan of the summer months. It isn’t as though I wanted to be in school, but it may have been a bit about the way the world around me changed into a different place [...]

Granted it isn’t as though I am doing a one-man show at the Hollywood Bowl… Tomorrow I am going to do my second stint as the co-anchor for the a news program for our division at work. It is a slightly campy, quirky and simple turn as an anchor with a lovely young lady named [...]

Well… writing and music…. and dancing. But today I will just talk about writing. How many times has it healed my soul in my years on this planet? How many times has it talked me out of something or into something else? How many times have I been able to spew venom and tears through [...]

Today was Gay Pride day in West Hollywood, California. This is a yearly event that happens in many cities and towns all around the country and the world.

Although I can think of better ways to do it. I have been below par in the health department for about a week or so now, perhaps longer. At first I thought that the problem was too much salt in my diet (see “…That Salt is not my friend”) Come to find by the end [...]

There are two sides to every coin. I an solution oriented. I like to see the positive side of things. My glass is half full. BUT… every ZEN mind must create that humorous foible in life to balance the seriousness that surrounds us (whether we look at it positively or negatively.) To that end I [...]

I’m too young to die. May was not the best month I’ve had in my meager existence on the planet. In it I worked FAR too much and absorbed an enormous amount of potentially damaging stress. On top of that my schedule and personal life was sent off kilter and along with them my eating [...]

A long time ago I experienced one of the most incredible therapy periods of my life. As a sober man I have learned that life is a process of making mistakes and learning from them.
