golden living dreams of visions
Lion Water Sign In the Zodiac, the sign Aquarius is known as the water-bearer, and is almost always depicted as pouring water from some small vessel he's been toting around. And yet, for some astrological reason, Aquarius is an air sign (as opposed to a water sign which, I think, would make much more sense). … Continue reading golden living dreams of visions
low rider is a little higher
The Whole Point July has been weird. Filled with malfunctioning tires, computers and airplanes - as well as guests both welcome and not (sure, raccoons are cute and they can really take you down with those little faces, but the hours they keep could make a shy bald buddhist reflect and plan a mass murder) … Continue reading low rider is a little higher
bodies…i’m not an animal
Everyone I Know Has A Body It's been said that the only reason we have bodies is so we'll be able to take our heads to the places they want to go. That's kind of funny when you think about it, but it implies the body is just a shell - a container - for … Continue reading bodies…i’m not an animal
syd meets the marble tea

This month's song (sketch, really) … Continue reading the final countdown
life goes on within you and without you
Faces on a Train You know how sometimes you'll be having a conversation about one thing and several minutes later you'll be talking about something totally different and you think "How did we start talking about that?" and when you look back through the topics you discussed you see how one thing led to another … Continue reading life goes on within you and without you

if 6 was 9
If Wishes Were Fishes Pardon me for being an old hippie, but I think that in much the same way Love can wound or heal, Vision can be a prison or it can be freedom. How do you see the grass, Glasshopper? Er...I mean, how do you see the glass, Grasshopper? Half this or half … Continue reading if 6 was 9
