1,000 Miles Wide

The HMS Bounty, a recreation of the original HMS Bounty just sunk off the North Carolina coast. It was a 180-foot, three-mast tall ship which was 90 miles off Cape Hatteras when it went down. I have no idea what it was doing out in this mess. I do know one thing, someone was not [...]

Falling Early Apples

We took Stretch to an apple orchard in northern Virginia yesterday. He was all like, “WTF is falling from the trees? Did he eat one? Yeap. Anyway, I see a Juju Woman Himalayan Apple Pie in our immediate future. She bakes the best apple pies in the solar system. Make you weak in the knees, they [...]

Yabu And Domino

We’ve got each others backs…so to speak. My friend, John Cox, can knock the back out of it…ya think?

Smart Women

Domino and I were on St.Croix in the US Virgin Islands once upon a time. She was running…I was hiding. We were cruising the rain forest on the west end of the island looking for a place to sync our thoughts, when we happened upon the Mt. Pellier Domino Club. Dirt floors and a [...]

Merced Recibida, Libertad Vendida…

…is not always true. Dominique was dreaming of Simone, and I was dreaming of Dominique. Guess who showed up at my door today? That’s right, Simone. Simone has the voice of an angel, and the disposition of a thermonuclear warhead. She is my kind of woman, but arriving on the last day of the [...]

Simone

She is light and grace from the sparkle of her eyes to the dulce tones of her voice when she speaks as when she sings. Unlike Yabu or me, she came from a family, a large family with siblings and all that they entail. She visited me in my dreams last night. After I have indulged [...]

Child of Darkness

Just before dawn on December 3, 1960 I made my appearance in this world at Nashville’s own St. Thomas hospital. I was the first and only child born to an unlikely pair, particularly in the South, most especially in the South during the late fifties and sixties.

The Real Story

When Yabu and I first really “met,â€? I was working undercover for the NOPD. There is a long and varied story behind how I came to choose that path that I may or may not one day share. Through a series of events orchestrated by all that is vile and corrupt in Louisiana, particularly New [...]
