Remembering Dodge Street
What makes you feel nostalgic? The most nostalgia I have in my life is living on my own in the center of town on the edge of society. The house on Dodge Street was divided into three rental units and I had the one on the ground floor to the front. I was very free…

Defending the Constitution
Today I am thinking of the oath I took when I joined the Army. I vowed to defend the Constitution of the United States against its enemies both foreign and domestic. I specifically consented to the power of the Congress to raise and support armies. I was trained to kill in that cause. I am…

What is your all time favorite automobile? There’s a song by Audio Adrenaline called, “My Chevette.” It’s about a little car that his dad owned that got thirty miles to the gallon and did 0 to 60 sometimes.

Renaissance Man
How are you creative? I am obviously working on my writing. This year I have made a little over 500 blog posts. It should come as no surprise to anyone paying attention to this blog that I have been doing digital art for many years. I occasionally break out into song and do other spontaneous…
