Ivory Wheels on a Rosewood Track....
Quote of the Whenever I Feel Like It
Ivory wheels on a rosewood track
Half a Wit
I fell from the side of a semi today. Not sure if you've ever climbed up to the door of one, but the doors are six feet up. It requires three steps to get all the way up, and stepping down, I forgot about the other two. So basically, a six-foot drop.

It was a cool feeling, AT FIRST. Even though I've been away from it for seven years, the years and years of aikido training I once did taught me, if nothing else, how to fall. Without thinking about it, I tucked my chin, held my arms close in... read more 
When I was younger, and constantly on the verge of a nervous breakdown, I used to consider all the things I'd have to get done before checking myself into the funny farm: stop newspaper and mail delivery, cancel utilities, notify relatives, find home for pets, clean house etc. In the end, staying sane seemed by far the least exhausting option.

We have an elderly cat named Humphrey. He's mute, badly arthritic, with skin allergies and a broken tooth, and we are keeping him mobile and alive by virtue of steroid medication that will definitely blow his liver and kidneys sooner or later. It's a matter of time. But he's cuddly and happy and still gets around.

In June, I will be leaving the house for several months away. And I've been agonizing over what to do with him. When I took him camping with me over spring break, he was fine for... read more

Shannon's the tits. She's not just a breath of fresh air, she's a breath of sub-arctic chill. She won't just knock your sox off, she'll strip your skivvies, too.
Pay tribute to this Caustic Female Extaordinaire--to her crystalline mind, and her soft derrière. Pucker Up! June 4, 2008
It was a short passionate relationship....a summer that I'll never forget, for sure. It was '71. We met on a nude beach in Jamaica and connected immediately. It was a summer of passion, smoking things, drinking things, discovery and wild abandon. Sadly, it ended too quickly..... She went on to Haight Ashbury and higher education and I went on to become a musician and world-class corporate slave. Nice to think about the good old days though. Yeah. That summer between 3rd and 4th grade was the best ever.

Repeatedly, she slays me - her words sharp, her heart full, her giggles delicious. She is Shannon, knowledge-hungry, well-traveled, a righteous soldier who never ever takes it too seriously. She is one of the few for whom I would drop about half of my life just to help get a novel of her writing published.

How many people do you know who are former members of a Bavarian Illuminati motorcycle gang, have bitten a mime and lived to tell the tale, and actually know how to spell quonset hut????
none 'cept one i say !!! .....and if you don't know her, you should... ...and if you don't want to, why then more for me i say!!! Shannon kicks ass, yet maintains the highest level of literary integrity. January 11, 2007
Pallas Athena as biker imp, Shannon is a keen listener, indefatigable tourist and warm-eyed anima who inspires men to wit, poetry, rhetoric. She specializes in all three herself, seeming to move on a daintily-rolling cloud of the stuff. I strongly suspect her of being the Olivia Newton John character in XANADU.
