I’m talking to a bartender with such a hoarse voice that she makes me feel very pleased that I never took up smoking cigarettes long-term.

I know, it sounds awful, but these days I’ll get my little victories wherever I can get them.

Peace.

10 years gone

I love David Bowie's music so much that I named my dog after Ziggy Stardust, and our wedding song was the Diamond Dogs cut, "Rock 'n' Roll With Me."

Without a doubt, he was and remains the most creative mind of our times.

"I'm in tears again when you rock and roll with me..." 🎶

Listening to a lot of Beck today.

Seems appropriate as I look toward the new year with an optimistic mindset.

Eyes forward, let’s go!

I hope everyone is having a great time tonight. I wish I weren't so busy, but the alternative is even worse.

You guys take care! I'll see you soon.

This is the best testimonial I've ever received. It's proudly displayed on my website.

And yes, it's somewhat accurate.

Musicians John Lennon and Dimebag Darrell were both assassinated today in 1980 and 2004, respectively.

Today, I remember them and their music 🎵

A heartfelt 'Fuck You' to the baggage handlers at American Airlines.

You make me check my carry-on, and then you fuck it up. Airport staff didn't give a shit, either.

A plague on both your houses 😠

My Friday morning walk didn’t make me feel any better but I got this shot. And for that, I’m grateful. 📷
