Babies and Power
I remember when my oldest child was born.
She was, and is, like all children, a miracle, but at the moment of her birth she seemed absolutely helpless.
She had this eternally wise expression on her face (ok, she is a bit of a genius). And, like all other babies, she had no [...]

The Fantasy of the Hero
For as long as I can remember I’ve wanted to be a hero.

A flow of some unknown power through [...]

I was listening to an interview yesterday with Art Linklater.
Yes, he’s still alive (for those of you who know who he is), and he’s going strong at 94. He’s involved in many businesses, writing, and still travels extensively to speak.
He loves to interview people (old and young), and capture their unique perspective. One [...]

I’d like to be a wild man.
No, I don’t want to live in rags, grunt, and carry a club.
But I do want to let go of the over-civilized me who is always trying to please someone. You know, the one who doesn’t want to be different, because it might offend someone?
I’m so sick of [...]
