What I’m Working On
If you read the news enough you’ll see all of the hand wringing about AI. I’m sure some of it is warranted, but I’m seeing a different angle. AI gives me the perfect outlet for my specific (not saying it’s superior, probably quite the opposite) method of thinking, designing, creating, and iterating. It’s allowed my […]
This Week’s Finds
First of all welcome to the new subscribers this week. If you’re new here it’s probably because of my Facebook rant from earlier in the week where I was once again suspended. Because Facebook is so finicky when it comes to arbitrarily suspending folks I’m moving my content here. If you’re into sound design or […]

Tunes:Uncovered
Recorded 3 podcasts for the almost 2 year old! podcast tonight. I love spending time learning more about the songs I have grown up listening to. And introducing a new audience to those songs is meaningful to me. Spending time with my friend Carey recording the shows is also a ton of fun. A win-win […]
Back in the Seat
It’s time to reinvigorate this blog. I am a reluctant writer. I want to write and I do sometimes. But not nearly enough. So from this moment on I’ll blog daily. Even if it’s a short 2 sentence blog about something I saw, it’s going to come out in this space. Today’s post – just […]
First & Lasts
Been thinking about firsts and lasts alot lately. With the move, the back injury and just life in general there have many of both. The last time to wake up in our ‘old’ house. The first time my wife and I walked into the ‘new’ house. The first time I needed a wheelchair to move […]
Possession
When you buy a house there are several days that are milestones. One of those is the day you actually take possession of the property. Today was that day for us. November 21, 2020. Posting here more for posterity than for anyone celebrating with us. It was a joy to watch my wife putting things […]
…how they make you feel
We’ve all heard the adage attributed to Maya Angelou that paraphrased is “It’s not what people say or do, it’s how they make you feel”. That’s very true and I can relate a story that I’m reminded of each time I hear that quote. I was a young courier and had a package for a […]
Family History
Due to COVID-19 the Memphis Public Library website has extra access to the Commercial Appeal archives all the way back to 1894. Every issue from about July 1 of that year. The search feature of the Newspapers.com site, where the archives are actually held, is very good. I’ve spent some time on the site and […]
Space Between
I’ve always been one to arrive early and make sure I’ve not cut myself to close when it comes to the next task/meeting/event. That has the unintended consequence of my not starting anything if I don’t think I’ll have time. So I waste downtime that could otherwise be used for writing, reading, or doing other […]
