Another year, that much wiser, oh yeah. I'm grateful, although the view is very different from here, much to ponder.

I had a revelation the other day about how I could make money. Any number of people have told me over the years I should do voice-over work. For whatever reason, I poo-pooed the idea. And then I was researching how to produce an audiobook of my own book, "The Rise & Fall of the HoneyBun Empire" and found this website where I could hire voice talent and it just hit me: "Hey I could do that!"

Better late than never.

Still processing the loss. I truly didn't see it coming. Of course I live in the SF Bay Area bubble. But how we could elect a convicted rapist and felon to the office of the presidency is beyond me.

The best music podcast I have ever heard. I cannot recommend it highly enough. I'm very happy he's only 2/5 of the way through his exhaustive and fascinating history of the popular music and the world of the second half of the twentieth century.

The article does not say how many 'Trump's Balls' wall hangings he has sold.

Still a demo, but I think the strings and oboe parts are keepers! Enjoy.

I've decided the old title of my memoir "The Gentlemanly Art of Spanking" set up an unrealistic expectation for some people and turned others off. The new edition will be called "The Rise & Fall of the HoneyBun Empire." It will be available soon on Apple Books, Lulu.com, and Amazon. If you want a copy with the Gentlemanly Art of Spanking cover, now is the time to buy it!

Other than the title change, it's the exact same book.

A mysterious Facebook friend who seemed to have connections to my family in San Francisco. We were penpals for a while. He shared my demos with Quincy Jones, who produced "Thriller" among other things. 

Super rough, but practice makes perfect.
