Rest In Peace, Crazy Deputy

I’ve been choosing to ignore much of what is offered in the news cycle today. I feel that I have only so many braincells to use before I expire, and that anything coming from the two Meccas of Insanity – Washington, D.C. and Hollywood, CA – should be automatically filtered into the “bit bucket.” IContinue reading “Rest In Peace, Crazy Deputy”

The apartments – design, height, color palette – seemed standard from the building I sawContinue reading “World Street Art – Valencia (ESP)”

For some reason I get stuck on a song or two while adding them to the soundtrack of my life (TM) for 2024. This year, for some reason or another, I had Counting Crows’ “Mr. Jones” as an earworm. I’ve listened to this song since it came out in the 1990s but never really consideredContinue reading “Joe’s Life Goals #034: Take in Flamenco”
