sewing up the economy…
You want to help the economy? No, really…forget waiting for Congress to get over it’s political constipation…support local and emerging businesses. I’d be very surprised if you didn’t know someone was trying to get something really wonderful off the ground. In case you don’t though, I’ll share with you this lovely lady, Alexia Abegg. She’s […]
missive: shoulder it well…
March 21, 2011
Dear one, When you say that you’re “fine” in response to an offer of help I believe you. I believe that you are “fine” and capable and worthy and strong. I believe this. Taking an offer of help doesn’t always need to be an admission of weakness…or even need. When things are heavy so often […]

This might sound odd… oh who am I kidding? I don’t care if it sounds odd. I was thinking today about this sweet young singer I heard about 10 years ago when I went to hear Jonatha Brooke play at the Park West in Chicago. I loves me some Jonatha Brooke, she was awesome, she […]
feet of clay

I wrote this song in 1993. yowza. These lyrics are older than my daughter. Today, though, beginning the season of Lent I thought it was appropriate to revisit them. Feet of Clay This is the set of tools that I came with started me out on the road that I travel. This is an angry […]
