Clearing out the cobwebs from the attics of my mind
Sweeping off the dust from all the memories that I find
Hold them to the light and reminisce — but not too long
I have to go
To move along
Turning back the pages in the diary of my …

Well, the Congresswoman tells her citizens,
“You know I feel the pain that you feel.”
And then she climbs into her limousine
To go eat a thousand-dollar meal.

One fine day.
If they both ran into Moses
Hangin’ out …

They’re taking me away
Because they didn’t like the things I had to say

They’re pounding at the door
My brain is frozen, I’m just staring at the floor
With scriptures in their hand (weapons!)
They …
If I am remembering correctly (and I think I am), my Dad took me to my first big-league baseball game in 1964. It occurred to me the other day that means this year will be 50 years since I went to my first ballgame.
The ballgame was at Connie Mack Stadium in Philadelphia. It was actually a twi-night double-header between the Phillies and the Mets. We only stayed for the first game, though. The Phillies …

Okay, I admit it. The main reason I bought this guitar was because it was dirt cheap. And also because it had a whammy bar. I’d never really worked with a whammy much, and I wanted something cheap and “expendable” to experiment on.
I ended up getting more than I bargained for (as I’ve found you often do with these inexpensive and/or old guitars). In addition to a …
