rpm 09
so, it’s another year, and there’s another rpm challenge. this is that nanowrimo-like competition for musicians to create a cd in the 28 days of february, front to back (so, including cover art), and is always the time of year when i say “maybe this year i’ll get something done,” and never finish. the rules…

During the protests following the first two, police approached the protesters in riot gear.…

2017 Goals
I’m not one for making resolutions as typically they end up being things that get forgotten by February. That said, 2016 was rough all around for most people. Personally, I had a pretty good year (new job, new house) but there were a lot of things I’d like to improve upon. Resolutions are not powerful…
