    Oh, Air Force John. How you’ve helped me this week. My time of need and all. You have provided ample distraction from real-life tragedy. Your silence is better than your hi’s or highs.

  • Just a FYI Post: Nothing Artsy

    Believe it or not, people don’t think of me as particularly brash. Perhaps pessimistic but I’ve been called many a time “happy go lucky,” which is ironic and sad because I am not happy or lucky and I don’t like to go anywhere. Or as Bryan would say, I’m only happy when I’m in my…
