Laquo; May 2013. Once again, The Missus is reading a book and it begins with a quote from Mr. Waits. she brought it to me and I read it. she cocked her head inquisitively. I simply began to sing. after I was finished, I said, "well, what does it mean? And off she wandered back to the hammock shaking her head (most likely sorry that she asked.). Read the Bullshit Â. Â Shut the hell up! I honestly have no idea. perhaps it was its time? Read the Bullshit Â. Hell raised by El Capitan. On June 7, 2013 04:53 PM.

Media Cole Slaw with W. M. Thackeray, Stanley Kubrick and Barry Lyndon. I stumbled sideways into Thackeray by way of Stanley Kubrick. A Sony Movie Channel documentary on Kubrick made me want to try to watch Barry Lyndon. In that way, the events of The Memoirs of Barry Lyndon are used by the writer to take down everything from peerages for sale to whoring, drinking and gambling as the play of gentlemen. Through a sequence of events he ends up escaped and touring Europe with his Uncle the Chevalier , and t...

From The Sports Desk. October 2013 Baseball Forecast. Autumn is a time of change and yet a time to take stock of the eternal verities. Leaves change color and drop, the evening commute grows darker, another friend or loved one battles against the dying of the light. And the Atlanta Braves pee down their legs in the post-season. Will this be the year we play our best ball in the postseason? That question rings like a bell throughout the region among Braves fans. September 26, 2013. September 26, 2013.

Huey Newton and New York City in the 60s–A review of T.J. English’s The Savage City | RobMaynardWrites Blog
https://robmaynardwrites.wordpress.com/2012/06/09/huey-newton-and-new-york-city-in-the-60s-a-review-of-t-j-englishs-the-savage-city
Huey Newton and New York City in the 60s–A review of T.J. English’s The Savage City. I picked this off the current non fiction shelf at my local library branch. The best words to describe The Savage City by T.J. English would be dark, gritty, disturbing. English’s style is terse and well written. The events in this story are worthy of great crime fiction, but actually happened. Whitmore’s frame-up became a hollywood screenplay that saw the light of day in the Kojak pilot movie “...June 9, 2012. Proud to ...

In The Garden of Beasts: Love, Terror, and an American Family In Hitler’s Berlin | RobMaynardWrites Blog
https://robmaynardwrites.wordpress.com/2012/05/07/in-the-garden-of-beasts-love-terror-and-an-american-family-in-hitlers-berlin
In The Garden of Beasts: Love, Terror, and an American Family In Hitler’s Berlin. Walter Dodd was a college history professor who had studied in Germany in his youth, and early on in his tenure as Ambassador saw that Hitler was a threat to be reckoned with. That his superiors in the State Department regarded him as a crank who couldn’t “get along” with the Nazis is an enduring shame to this country. May 7, 2012. May 9, 2012 at 12:31 am. At least I appreciate it. And i do……. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Air Time Is A Zero Sum Game | RobMaynardWrites Blog
https://robmaynardwrites.wordpress.com/2012/07/22/air-time-is-a-zero-sum-game
Air Time Is A Zero Sum Game. Air time is a zero sum game. There are 24 hours in a day on a radio station and you either have a shift or you’re a fill in, or you sit on the sidelines. Paradoxically at the point in my life that I assumed my days as a DJ were long past, I now have an opportunity to do some air shifts. And on your wireless via TuneIn Radio, as they say.
