Gift yourself (or someone else)
Hello everyone. As some of you know, I’ve started doing some collage…stuff? (Note from my wife “They are really beautiful. Like, really really beautiful.) I don’t know what to call it, but it is very therapeutic for me. I’ve been asked by several people when I’m going to sell some of the wo...

A bar walks into a man…
I’ve been many things in my life. Hooker (rugby). Fake dentist. Town crier. Punching bag. Pack mule. Salesman. Liar. I’m using this time to transmogrify beyond all that into just what I am. And to quote Popeye, “I am what I am.” I’m going to spend more time making th...
