This is a blog about what I write, what I ride, and all the rest.
How I commute
Some of my other writings
Raymond Carver poem
and did you get what you wanted from this life, even so?
i did.
and what did you want?
to call myself beloved, to feel myself beloved
on this earth.
On my shelf
- "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" - what took me so long!
- "Johnny Got His Gun" - took me 25 years, but finally got it.
- "Moby Dick" - in my eight month of reading
- "Testament of Youth" - Vera Brittain
- "Some Desperate Glory" - best WWI memoir I've ever read.
Snippets
Near death:
The girl swinging into my lane never saw me. How could she with a cell phone at her ear and her hand blocking her vision? A quick twist on my throttle and I sped out of her way. I don't know why driving a 2,000-pound box of metal and glass at 70 mph isn't enough to keep some people focused.
