2014: Successfully Weathered
This has been a challenging year. Challenges, can often become the, forge where we form (or re-form) our character. I'm proud that I was able to weather it as I have. It's been tough. And there's been pain as life brings us from time to time. So much that we encounter is out of our control, but that's where the Serenity Prayer comes in ( Read more... ) -
My Full Documentary is Done!
Well, it's taken nearly a year to complete, but here is my full documentary, "Still Playing: Standing Strong in the Digital Age". I'm very proud of it and I hope that those who watch it come away entertained and informed ( Read more... ) -
Hailing Frequencies: Awesome
In her 80s, she's still funny, vivacious, and gracious. At the panel, she, a famed cultural icon (beyond just Star Trek), was asked what was her greatest achievement. Her reply? "My son." That's class. (P.S. I got to shake her hand which was just mind blowing. Would Nimoy or Shatner do that?)

A Time for Miracles
Between the years 2002 to 2011, I had been hospitalized 9 times for psychiatric reasons. Two years ago around this time, I was released from the hospital, and I have not been back since. That's 2 years of sustained overall health--the first time in well over a decade. That's the best present I could get; actually it's more of a miracle than a ( Read more... ) -
A Small Thanksgiving Message
I want to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving!
I've had problems with having the feeling of gratitude of late (but, it's just of late), and the wonky feeling should pass. But, despite it all I am grateful. I'm grateful that I've been given a new chance to change the course of my life. I'm grateful for the increased lucidity balanced with good ( Read more... ) -
More of My Artwork
I don't think I've drawn as much or produced as much artwork in since I was in the single digits.
