Misery Never Looked So Ironic
Every time I drive over the Whitman street bridge heading West, I struggle to resist staring at that strip of cement and metal that’s built into the river’s edge behind the museum. It’s arguably more attractive than the broken slabs of concrete and exposed tree roots in other areas along the Rock River.

Be Careful What You Wish For…

There’s going to be a comedy hypnotist, a DJ and a coffee bar. I wonder if they could hypnotize me to stop eating when I get full and not spill anything on myself all night… uncut version
The least of us
Yes… our city needs some change pretty bad. Even if you think the electoral college nullifies your presidential vote (which I’ve heard more times than I can count) you STILL need to vote. Do it for Rockford. Do it for our children. uncut version
Libra Nocturne
The stars and their charts and references were among the first accomplishments of science -back when humans were still trying to establish and create a framework for the laws of science. uncut version
