I’m sick as a dog so I won’t be doing any partying on New Year’s Eve. But that won’t stop me from having a little fun.
Happy New Year!
btw, I’m blogging from TextMate again. I can tell you that it won’t be replacing Ecto because I can’t create excerpts. Bummer. But if I can [...]
This is a moving post from Ken Wilber. He went through a lot and I’m so glad that he pulled through.

It’s not the news you want to wake up to on Christmas day. But the Godfather of Soul, James Brown, has died.
My first post on this blog was over a year ago. I was hoping to make a bigger deal of it but I caught a really nasty cold and the last thing that I wanted to do was be creative and write. I’m starting to feel better and as I look back over the year, [...]

12-08-06: Update here.
12-11-06: Ken sent an email to staff today. He’s a tough dude and he’ll heal. Really great news.
I had forgoten all about this alien clone sex cult leader until Boing Boing hipped me to his new “Clitoraid” campaign. It seems to me that he could be a serious James Bond-worthy adversary. You know what I’m talking about, the absolute maniacal freak who has so much money he can build an enormous armed [...]

I’m still deep in the unpacking of it all but I’m home.
I have arrived
I have not moved
This is my TRUE HOME
Tomorrow I leave for my new home in Somerville, MA. I’ve lived in Boulder, CO for 11 years, 8 months, and 26 days.
Katie and I had a beautiful send-off with our friends tonight and we got to say goodbye to Ken earlier today. I feel complete — and I feel new.
Blogging and email will probably [...]
I’ll be on the road from August 27-30. I move into my new home in Somerville, MA on September 1. Blogging and email will be light if any during that time.
It’s a new era for me. Expect changes.

This is an amazing collection of photographs put into a slide show with audio explaining the meaning of music to New Orleans natives and how musicians are still trying to keep the city’s cultural heart beating. It’s such a shame what happened to our most precious musical resource! read more.
How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.
