A Half-Century After High School
My high school class is holding our official 50th Reunion tonight. The Memorial High School Class of ’72 will celebrate a half-century since we parted ways after graduation. I will not be going. I had been planning on it but … Continue reading
5 Years Here…
Last Monday marked 5 years since we closed on our house here in Cañon City. I already shared how our trajectory towards transformation lead us here. I told you how Casa Dexter relocated to Main Street as part of the … Continue reading

Reelin’ in the Years
A new gadget arrived for me a day early. I wasn’t expecting it until today but was delighted to get my hands on it yesterday. Having just re-opened a doorway to the past by resurrecting my old record collection, I was … Continue reading

Testing THC in the Psych Ward (Part 2)
On Monday morning, I reported to the program office. They handed me a 14-page “informed consent” waiver to read and sign. The first several pages discussed THC, its known effects and every conceivable side effect involved with the intravenous administration, … Continue reading
Testing THC in the Psych Ward (Part 1)
“Do you smoke marijuana?” I looked around nervously before whispering, “Yes.” “Good — we’re looking for volunteers for a THC experiment.” 1977 — the whole year had been bad, starting with Mike Eddy’s death and Granny’s stroke. I spent the … Continue reading
My (Future) Dying Request
Laugh! That’s right. The day you hear I have died, I want you to laugh. Feel free to start now, of course, but I’m talking about that time sometime in the future when I die, be it tomorrow, next year, … Continue reading
