Well I know a lot about things like the soils and geology of New Jersey and the design and operation of septic systems but I don’t think that will interest many people. So I guess I have to continue to write about books and music. Now many times I write about the new music I’m just discovering, not music I know.

“Ballad of William Worthy” – A Glimpse at the 60s

So last weekend, we went to the Antique Emporium in Burlington NJ and I browsed through some of the vinyl albums they had for sale. I ended up buying two albums. One was the album Raw Sienna from Savoy Brown. The other was All the News that’s Fit to Sing  from Phil Ochs. Of the two albums I am way more familiar with the Phil Ochs album. Read More

A Pain Free Run with Albert Cummings Ten

Albert Cummings Ten and a pain free run yeah !

Ok so now that this site is about all aspects of my life and not just about the books I read or have read. And one of the things you will be reading about is my running.

What’s Karnucopia…and a Favorites Playlist

Karnucopia is a website that’s like a cornucopia. However, where a cornucopia is overflowing with fruits and vegetables and other foodstuff, Karnucopia is flowing with my ramblings about: the books I read, the music I listen to, the actions I take to turn back my biological clock and everything else the flows through my ADHD and aged addled brain.
