200 Year Old Trees

Leslie university bought this lot with 200 year old trees and chopped them all down

It made me feel like wet death on cold toast. I read all these rare books about philosophers in the 19th century and they predicted this great darkness that would be what we’re living in now and it would be enabled by corporate automatons you could be a friendly automaton. I haven’t decided yet.

 We did a fun set of improvised music and wordy rambles.

Here it is!

Get Off My Blog

Just a few disconnected rants as I shake my ineffectual fist at the indifferent air.

1. Movies are just too long now. So many modern movies would be better if they were shorter. Not every movie needs to be three hours long. Most shouldn’t be even close to that long.

2. What’s the deal with not capitalising the first letter of every word in a title?

3. Nazis are never cool. They are always wrong.

4. Why is the back of my head shaped like a baked potato?

Jenny's Journey

One of the true joys of being in the Stoneham Writers Group is that I get to help people improve their work but above and beyond that is the great rush of pleasure when I see their finished work published.

Eileen Hugo has been working on Jenny’s Journey for a long time. Now at last its out in print.

Here’s a link to the book.

Jenny’s Journey is the semi-true story of a colourful, wilful, Irish immigrant named Jenny who makes her way to America in 1928 to build a better life for her family. Jenny puts her family far above herself. Like everyone in life, Jenny has a lot to learn and goes through more than a few changes.

The book gives arresting insights into the day to day lives of the working class people of Massachusetts during that era. 

I’m almost done reading the book myself. 

Thanks for writing it Eileen, and for being a member of the Stoneham Writers Group!

Yours in Writing, 

Count Robot

No time for Experimentation

My First David Lynch Experience

I first became aware of David Lynch through Rush. Rush were huge fans of Lynch’s film Eraser Head. A giant poster can be seen in the background of many early 80’s pics of the band.

So my fellow Rush friends and I rented Eraser Head.

To say I wasn’t ready for it, is an understatement of maximum proportions.

That didn’t matter.

Of course long before that, I saw Dune but really didn’t know who David Lynch was, however, I did dig the total weird approach of Dune. Yes, Lynch has disowned it but I still dig the oddness of it. 

Thanks for the strange memories Mr. Lynch. 

You are missed.
