Fantastic Day
OH MY....This exuberant Georgian is having a marvelous, thrilling day. Reading Joyce's 'Portrait of The Artist' and digging sleek sounds of Mr. Duke Ellington.
The People of Georgia U.S.A.
GEORGIA PEOPLE are very strong. There is a tremendous cultural passion deep in the souls of this state. Fine writers have come from here.

Political Arena
POLITICS is so truly wild now. The MSNBC people have done very nice work on the panoramic political ethos lately.

Tough Guy Writers
THIS POST PRODUCES STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS VIBES: I believe the tough guy writers like Elmore Leonard, James M. Cain and Dashiel Hammett are extremely invigorating. Their rough descriptions snare us and rocket us to stratospheric levels of readers' delight. The potent crackle of James M. Cain's little novel 'Serenade' is a prime example of this fiery prose vibrancy. It is a need...a big one...in our culture...that we should possess strong prose artists. Get us some writers who can develop seething, mean guys, folks who dig deep into the at times blah aspects of our weird American cultural life. If a person reads Cain, he or she will be overcome with a brand of literary sensualism that is ideological and almost hits the Leo Tolstoy plane of psychic wildness. Listen to Patsy C. and Charlie Parker and Coltrane and Vivaldi. Go passionately into a gigantic, multi-level lifestyle.

Modern Journalism Needs
UNIVERSITIES TEACHING MEDIA STUFF NEED TO BE CHANGED. It is high time colleges started teaching men and women the concept of journalism that has a dose of reality. Get away from philosophical clap-trap. The abhorrent nature of gross big-ego thinking pounded into the brains of young people is absurd. If you get courses in how to deal with regular folks it is better for our contemporary culture. Stop the visceral garbage of moronic elitist media thinking.

Valentine's Day 2016
A TERRIFIC Valentine's Day to all. This cultural mainstay can overwhelm us with memories. When I was a little kid we gave little valentines to classmates...and it was a cultural amalgam of chaos...because some people didn't want to play this game. V Day is weird....some like it and some do not. There are so many oddball variables in American life. It appears more and more difficult as we age...this keeping things socially smooth is often difficult.

Nerds, Eggheads and of course Squares
IT IS MORONIC how so many put labels on many of us. One time years ago I was called a square....then they said egghead. And now they say nerd. It is absurd the way other mean and selfish ones want to demean us and humiliate us and say disgusting phrases like "don't have a pity party for yourself." Tired of mean, nasty and selfish idiots.
