Idle-a-while

That's me with my real girlfriend (her name is Anastasia Latisha Spiritwind) at Idlewild "Gut Rumble" Park. Since I had already puked up my lunch I was all smiles for this shot. The G forces are so strong that it made my forehead bigger and my hair more normal. Amazing. Estoria and Avah aren't in this picture because they where, again, at the historic landmark Carousel. 

I highly recommend a trip to the Greatest Kids Park in the World (the forest aside). It'll change your life.

David Byrne

David Byrne is radical. 

You must go out and get his music. 

Uh-Oh (1992!) is a pretty good start.

Tree Crickets

Quite interesting this once-every-17-years life cycle of the cicadas.This trailer for a documentary is great. I really like the part when they break out of their shells. Take the hint. These are the genus Magicicada, and magic seems to be at play with their long wait, short life, and rerunning the cycle in a scant six weeks. Enjoy.
