"It isn't given to us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world. They will not be cured by our most efficacious drugs or slain with our sharpest swords." — Francis Scott FitzgeraldMusic

The Octopus Knows…The Finale
I have had the best time reading all the twists and turns the tale The Octopus Knows has taken since it first started in April.

Ginny & the She-Woolfs
About two weeks ago, we had a storm. It was dark, rainy, and catastrophe-ridden. Well, at least, for a certain giant magnolia tree in my front yard, it was catastrophe-ridden. The tree, which is host to some sort of bizarre fig vine (a story for another post) just couldn’t handle the weather. It dropped a…Read the Rest

Songs for Weequashing
Weequashing: n. The act of spearing eels by night, from a canoe, with the aid of a torch or lantern. Canoes? At Night? With Torches? Eels or no, this sounds like an awesome activity. I’m not much for fishing, but I could make an exception for weequashing. Obviously, this is a sport…Read the Rest

Shakespeare In Love…With GLAM ROCK!
Little known fact: Shakespeare has a lot in common with Elvis. (My use of the present tense is not accidental.) Aside from the fact that Shakespeare was an awesome dancer, he and the King share a love-hate relationship with the afterlife.
