A Message Of Hope?
This cover of the November 11 Seattle Stranger, an alternative weekly, has apparently become something of a collectors’ item. The message says, Do not despair. You don’t have to leave. You don’t have to move to Canada. You may feel … Continue reading
The Insane Becomes Normal…
Thanks to the proliferation of people talking on cell phones using earbud headsets, it’s not at all uncommon to see people walking around gesturing and talking (seemingly) to themselves. At least, this is the case in the financial district where … Continue reading

Ooh, Pick Meme
My journal is called Riffs and Licks because it refers to both my musical and conversational styles, and because it’s somewhat suggestive. My subtitle is nonexistent because it seemed superfluous. My friends page is called Ken’s Friends because I never … Continue reading

Evolutionary historian Edward Larson says that natural selection favors evangelicals and other religious extremists, who tend to have large families, over the rest of us, who don’t: But among white, middle-class Americans, religious people are having children at a much … Continue reading
