Picasso Art Overwhelms
I LOVE PABLO PICASSO AND HIS ART. The world of art was ah so blessed when Pablo Picasso came along. His vibrant and so exuberant modernism has a grand flair. His art reminds one of reading the clever Patricia Highsmith or the sleek Oscar Wilde.

The Art of J, Miro Is Fabulous
MIRO ART SO CAPTIVATING. I thoroughly enjoy the rather minimalist art of shrewd J. Miro. Like the odd writing of the slick one, Julian Barnes..el Miro is cunning and a man who focuses on fervent emotions. This happens to be an uncanny state of affairs.

Delightful Internet Films
I LOVE FINE FILMS. As long as I can remember movies have tickled my fancy. Clever films like Orson Welles works and Billy Wilder big films are quite thrilling indeed. I also enjoy the sleek work of Bogart. 'Maltese Falcon' is a sly 1944 work. The fab lady Natalie Wood was so fine in 'Gypsy.' One more thing recently Amazon Prime and Hulu have had terrific content. The grand Emma Watson was great in 'Colonia' for example.

The Importance of Connections
LATELY, I have realized the poignant importance of making better connections in our daily lives. Our culture is weird so we need to get back to primitive high-flung emotionalism. I now connect more with my son and my two granddaughters and I feel much more satisfaction in my inner soul. The culture of reading good thriller writers and listening to profound super-mod composers has helped me in a huge sense of the word, Also, reading bizarre writers like Julian Barnes and the elegant Italian, Umberto Eco has helped me a lot. Let us have more cultural fun everybody. I watched a grand film on Amazon Prime the other night and one of the female characters suddenly said, "I am not afraid anymore." What a beautiful, meaningful statement that was. I am trying to get more zip and shiny wit into my thinking. I am scurrying away from the insipid lunancy of negativism and My God,,,I feel much better.

New Philosophy Modes
PRAGMATIC RELAXED CULTURAL ETHOS seems a rather more grand not too wordy concept to insert into our quite odd psyches. Absolutely, it feels better for one's inner being to go with a mindset of "don't think too much." Vigorous sly overthinking proves often too debilitating.

Blues Men Oddly Make Us Happy
BLUES GIANTS like Buddy Guy and Luther Allison have strong, visceral vocal stylings that are rich with meaning. Culturally speaking one would think raw blues music would make us crazily sad. But life is odd because the wild, savage blues beats often can stir up a huge pot of emotion so naked in us and we can derive more enjoyment out of our oftentimes topsy-turvy lives.

HORROR ...that epitomizes the Vegas early this week. it shows me wretched insanity prevails in our heinous culture. The religious leaders and philosophers need to show leadership. No affection and no empathy appears a wretched characteristic of our negative misguided culture now.

Mean Thinking Reeks Of A Strong Stench
JUST SMILE. Get thrilled you have living going on inside of you. So many "mean" people populate our turgid society today. Destroy the acrid aroma i.e. the stench. We have had rigorous morons trying passionately to inject the horrors of skeptic thinking into us. Desperately, we need to learn how to appreciate what we have, namely us males and females have good living tissue at the present time.

Our U.S. Culture Needs Changing
OUR AMERICAN CULTURE desperately needs a change. This edgy, harsh and very cynical dry rot should go away fast. The hearts of all citizens need to focus on the Texas people now. Let's have gigantic kindness toward the citizens of South Texas especially. Also, I am sickened by the gross and crappy bigotry in our country now. Listen all....Banish Racism.

HAPPY feels like my favorite mood at this time in my life. I appreciate good scenes of nature. I know why Henry David Thoreau loved fine lovely things. I find the clear thoughts of Albert Camus and Jean Luc Godard so grand. I am thrilled I am alive.

Dealing With Offspring
LET US LISTEN to our sons and of course our daughters. We have such an horrendous amount of insane crap going on in our culture...as old guys we need to shut up and listen to our adult kids. It is hard to make money and pay bills. We need to let our bunch roll out their inner feelings. Our kooky culture needs to foster more calm. Rejection is too strong in our horrid society. Let us get back to real life. Like Thoreau we need to get focused on things in a back to nature sense. The brutal, non-caring mean folks in our world need to stop tormenting us struggling people. Let us have happy thoughts and lots of huge laughs.

Feisty Jazz Sounds of Nancy Wilson
NANCY WILSON has a dramatic, very meaningful beautiful jazz voice. It is difficult for some singers to wrap themselves around some highly complex forms of musicality. But for Nancy Wilson that scenario is no problem at all. The haunting Wilson voice on 'Guess Who I Saw Today?' is so eery and intensely vibrant. It sticks in my memory much like the Picasso art masterpiece, 'The Lovers.'

American Journalists
THE FINE U.S.A. is a grand place. One reason for this happiness is the fact our American Journalists do a fantastic job. The passionate Brian Williams and the terrific Lawrence O'Donnell are superb humans in the word business. The Washington Post souls are superior writers and editors, also. The super spirit of Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward lives on.

Michael Connelly....A Super Thriller Novelist
MR. MICHAEL CONNELLY is a fine, grand writer. His thriller novels are packed with clever characters and plenty of fun for the reading souls of the world. His recent book, 'The Wrong Side of Goodbye' is memorable because it gives sleek new machinations for the sophisticated protagonist Harry Bosch.
Renoir....The Sophisticated Impressionist
AUGUSTE RENOIR was a masterful innovator in the art world. He led the fervent development of Impressionism. His paintings with all their shimmering use of paints overwhelm us in a terrific sense of the word. The French culture feels dramatically incredible with chic innovative art minds like Auguste Renoir.
Like the vivid North Carolina naturalism shown (in number 2 position) here the art of Auguste Renoir provides wonderful emotional enjoyment for each and everyone of us. His 'Dance at Moulin De La Galette' (number 1 position) is one of my favorites.

ARIANA awesome today. I watched her Manchester show on the mighty Freeform channel today. Oh Wow, it was so terrific. The beautiful lady hit a tremendous cultural home run with this one. I cried like a child watching Ariana perform. This kind of passionate show
was super inspiring. The gigantic love like this angelic art {portrayed here} is tremendously exemplified by the grand artistry of Ariana Grande.

Europe Rocks...Oh Yes!
TRAVELED TO EUROPE recently. The trip proved wild and vivid. I loved the passion of France and Italy. And Barcelona Spain was terrific also. Grand travel times indicate more vigor in our souls. I feel good when I get intellectual. Like the picture below all of you can see that I am a complex man.
The Deep South U.S.A. Experience
SOUTHERN PEOPLE like me feel so intellectually hard to explain. I know our ersatz culture seems thick and at times absurd. Yet, we have plenty of passions. My books show my bizarre modes.
. Unusual writers like Erskine Caldwell and William Faulkner proved that long ago. I believe I am blessed to have sprung from the feisty state of Georgia, a rip-roaring cultural and so terrific place.

The Impact of The Japanese
GOING TO OKINAWA JAPAN really changed me. The grand world of Japan is so culturally exciting. Very little in American education prepares one for the massive impact of being there every day with the Okinawans and also for being with the incredible people of all Japan. The vibrant art of the Japanese warrior can make us feel the tremendous passion of the dynamism of Japan's people. This art piece of mine gives me great joy.
Frederic March Old Guy Greatness
THE SHREWD ONE, Frederic March was such an engaging actor. His dramatic work in films had so many levels. The man reminded me of the superman, Stanley Kubrick. His moves were so calculating and full of resplendent style. Recently I watched Mr. March in the unusual movie 'Middle of the Night' a great cinematic jewel he did with the superb lady of films, the serene Kim Novak. Like the wild Kandinsky art below. Mr. March overwhelms with his vibrant emotionalism. Such an artist!
Tennessee Williams Grand Artistry
A NEW FILM based on a Tennessee Williams screenplay puts a crafty focus so passionate on Deep South life so many moons ago. This grand film talking about the loss of a lady's diamond earring stirs the cognitive creative juices in all of us. The marvelous and so talented line producer Molly Mayeux did a marvelous modicum of work on this one.
This good Williams-oriented film has a poignant jazz feel; like the super-expressive saxophone sounds of me on my marvelous and so fun alto saxophone. Yes Jazz is Good and Culturally enriched films are such a vibrant expressive mode for us all to enjoy.

Paris accord concepts
THE NEWS ON PARIS is so weird. Clever decisionmaking or basic oddity 101. What is really going on now? Most of us cretins are confused with this dissonant verbiage going on. We long for clear concise geopolitical thinking. We need sleek Asiatic art like that shown below. Our wily brains need to be refreshed.

Mailer the Strong Man
NORMAN MAILER works are passionate...his Miami Siege of Chicago and 'Armies of the Night' prove culturally picaresque over and over.
Mark Rothko
COLORFUL AND AMUSING Mark Rothko has an art styled that hits home in a resounding way. Like Georges Roualt. Rothko seems shrewd, indeed.
Mr. Saul Bellow
CHICAGO GUY Saul Bellow Gets it. His sly works of social poignancy like 'Augie March' and 'Henderson have big dollops of sleekness.

John O'Hara Was A Divine Social Critic
HEMINGWAY liked John O'Hara and that goes for me too. His social constructs on the harsh aspects of high society are valid depictions pouncing on the brusque variables of American life. His 'Appointment in Samarra' and 'Ten North Frederick' rocked along like a an absurd Benny Goodman riff. I loved the crazy book called 'Butterfield 8' because it had so much zing.

Sylvia Plath the Enigma
POETRY is a profound business. The weird poems of the tragic American poet, Sylvia Plath overwhelm us. Her words in the poem 'Child' and the odd story 'Bell Jar' so movingly engage us. This woman who did suicide was disturbing and so unusual and so passionate.
The Sleek and So Imaginative Man of Barcelona
Joan Miró i Ferrà (Catalan: [ʒuˈan miˈɾo]; 20 April 1893 – 25 December 1983) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, and ceramicist born in Barcelona.This fierce man of the incredible powerhouse arts was a vibrant soul of the surrealist genre. His electrifying art scenarios were daring and rich with an explosive dialectic of their own. When one looks at one of this master's painting then one is instantly overwhelmed. His vision like that of the raging Wassily Kandinsky jumps right off the painting's surface and slashes into your consciousness in a brazen, breakthrough way. Like the crashing and so irreverent jazz musical art of the provocative jazz alto saxophonist Charlie Parker this individual, the merry Senor M. the Catalan is stupendous in his crackling and strong passionate art message. I enjoy the vigorous surrealism of the explosive grand one, Joan Miró i Ferrà. He is a massive man of art.....A TRULY GREAT ONE!

Southwest Georgia Passionate People
THE SPIRITED people of Southwest Georgia are fascinating. People all over the Deep South [including the bizarre Atlanta area] have very little awareness of the remarkable denizens of sw ga. These wild and tough culture real Georgia men and women have an artistic emotionalism that is hard to figure. My town of Cairo had many feisty art souls, We did plays like 'The Boor' By Chekov and many moons ago there was a poignant and good interpretation of the Tennessee Williams classic 'The Glass Menagerie.' It has always amused me how some arty clever personas all want to look down on my people as looney 'Mencken-Style' 'Sahara of the Bozart People. The truth is...the folks of Southwest Georgia are marvelous individualists who know how to have energetic, good lives.

Mr. James M. Cain....The Wild One
'SERENADE' is a powerful and so ribald work by that crafty guy by the name of James M Cain. This sinewy story of the opera human being and his sleek lady friend remains a brutal, hustling and so ironic tough guy hunk of prose. Mr. Cain remains a badnik if ever there was one. His rippling badness feels like fun. The mean one named Cain can conjure up a fine story. Yes, Cain you're fine. You're fine. Perfect as a friend of mine used to say.

RED LIGHT shiny as a buoyant film noir classic. This jewel with the mighty George Raft and Virginia Mayo is a winner!
Anime and Cartoons Perfect Times

Kandinsky, the Astounding Abstract Enigmatic One
WASSILY KANDINSKY, overwhelms with his shiny abstract explosions that are the engaging aspects of his paintings. This man of Russia was a potent firebrand of an artistic individualist. He had works that were unbelievable. When you walk in a room and see a work by Kandinsky it overcomes you for its tones and its incredible, sinewy style surpasses so many of the rather dull impressionists. Indeed, Wassily Kandinsky remains a man in another sphere.
