I can’t handle heavy right now. Trips to the bookstore focus on history (where we know the final act), and art. Lots of photos and quiet reflection. In the car classical music has suddenly made an appearance. It feels that sanity can only be found in what happened before. Clarity or maybe even hope is too foreign in the news of the day. The adoration of the horrible. The obsession with the obscene. Look, no one is perfect. But they can at least be decent. Honorable. And just. But even that low bar seems too much to ask. So here we go. To a place unknown. Consequences unsure. Future— questionable. Thats the same way the great ones have all felt too. You can hear it in their words. It lives in the background of their images. It’s all just questions. What next? They are not here to hear the latest version of the answer. But what they did, that does remain. The greatest hits of 1645 provided by Spotify thank you very much. The modern gallery with gardens from 150 years before I was born. Still here. Still calling. Still saying. This will not be the end. It was not for them. Will not be for us.

And Now a Word From The Sponsor
Welcome to my site and thank you for reading. After many times thinking, if only I had a blog, well-- here we are. This blog will feature writings on a variety of topics from roadside food, to leadership in the fire service; politics; culture- gay, straight, and indifferent, my experiences in Ohio, New York and beyond; and much much more. It's my hope that you will find it interesting and that it stirs at least some thought and discussion. I am certain you wont always agree, but that is what its all about right? Oh and one more thing:
