Hello everyone, I know it’s Labor Day weekend, which means we all must labor, right? 😀 No, seriously, it’s Saturday, and I’m getting ready for yet another run through the blogroll, seeing what my fellow bloggers and photographers and YouTubers are up to, and posting what they do in my weekly blog recap. It’s Saturday,…
Read MoreYes, I wear a mask when I drive. You got a problem with that?
Let’s get things straight right now. The condescending attitude of people like Breanna Morello just pisses me off.

Read MoreK-Chuck Radio: Wait, there’s a new Midnight Oil song? For reals?
Ah, the days of college radio. Playing imported records from all over the world. Fun times. And one of the artists I played on college radio, way back in the day, was the power-rock group Midnight Oil. You know them. At least you know their one hit, “Beds are Burning,” right? Yeah, the song where…

Read MoreCan 2020 get any worse? You gotta be jokin’ me!
This has been a tormented year. Wildfires. COVID-19. Kobe Bryant dead. Chadwick Boseman dead. Can it get any worse?? Well, apparently, last night, it did. During this pandemic, I have allowed myself very few pleasures, and one of them is the enjoyment of professional wrestling. And the squad that catches my attention more often than…

I had plenty of chores for yesterday … a big bag of soda bottles to drop off at the humane society (they get 8 cents/bottle don’tcha know), pick up some chicken breasts at Primal, all that stuff. So as I’m driving out of my neighborhood, I happened to spot a young man who was trying…

I almost pulled a Photo Regionals “audible.”
Well, it was delayed because of COVID-19, but the 42nd annual Photo Regionals will actually take place this fall. In fact, tomorrow I drop off my three entries at Albany Center Gallery. All submissions will be shown in a salon setting, then the best of the best will be selected for the regular Photo Regionals…
