Hey, Folks. I was doing fine. Really. Then I boarded a plane in Toronto to Burlington and realized I left my computer at TSA in Toronto. Now I’m not fine. Not at all. Now I’m beating the shit ...

Jamming, People. A couple of things. First, Charlie seems to have returned to his former self. It feels like a miracle.  Second, I went to a Phish show. It was good. Sadly, I was not converted. ...

Taking it easy, People I know I have been a bit dire lately. Dire times. It’s hard for me to compartmentalize almost anything. Once it’s in my mind I can sometimes sort it out. My perception is the ...
