I could be a song writer Jon Hillenbrand, March 3, 2008October 17, 2019 So my friend Rikki challenged me by saying that I wouldn’t be a good song writer after I wrote something lame to her. So I took up the challenge and asked her to give me a subject and I would write a song about it. But I couldn’t wait, so I just picked a potato and wrote a song about that. So here it is: In my dream she rolls to me With sun in her eyes, sun in her eyesSkin so soft it makes me cryThe day is long and I hear her sighs I walk alone, I sometimes seeThrough the sand and heat in me… Potato! Girl! You roll to me with graceYou’re earthy smell is like a warm embraceOne day I know I’ll get out of this placeAnd that day soon we’ll marry and live our days… Together! Girl! Potato you’ve been there for meIn my hand we’ll run across the beach, you are freeI see you in my garden, don’t you see me tooSee me in you…see me in you…see me in you. I need to work on the chorus a little more, keep it melodic, but I think it works. Photography Thoughts photography

Thoughts A Thought of My Own Sourcing December 12, 2016October 17, 2019 All original thought is just randomness grabbed from an infinite database in our brains. And it’s all written down already in the Library of Babel. Did we create the language or did the language already exist and we created meaning? If all words and imagery exists independently of meaning, does… Read More
Photography Customized December 16, 2008October 17, 2019 So because my car window is frozen closed, and because I enjoy the irony of eating fast food after doing yoga, I found myself in joyous spirits inside a McDonald’s just now. And after making the girl behind the counter smile politely at my super charming self, I sat down… Read More
