Japanese BBQ Pork Belly, or A Reintroduction
I don’t know why it has taken me so long to start posting about cooking. I’ve been on Steemit for well over a year, and I’ve only posted music and the occasional photo. I suppose it’s partly because I

Steemit Open Mic Week 73 - Let's Stay Together (again) - Al Green cover
Ok, I guess I’ll just do this again since I might as well not have last week. For the very first Steemit Open Mic, I played this song right before evacuating for a hurricane. Oh, the memories. It’s amazing

For the very first Steemit Open Mic, I played this song right before evacuating for a hurricane. Oh, the memories. It’s amazing how much Open Mic has grown, not only in the time I was away but in the time

Steemit Open Mic Week 71 entry - My Cherie Amour (Stevie Wonder cover)
Here’s a classic from one of the greatest musicians ever. This song is from the late sixties, before Stevie really came into his own. Its innovative chord progression and key change hints at the unrelenting

Steemit Open Mic Week 70 entry - One (U2 cover)
I'm not feeling so hot right now, but I wanted to get an entry in for the week. Thanks to the fine medicine here in Colorado I was able to knock back the nausea long enough to sing this song (it's coming

Steemit Photo Challenge entry - Animal Portrait - "Quizzical"
As far as capturing the shot I wanted, this is one of my favorite photos of my dog Leia. This was taken on a point-and-shoot; one of these days I want to get another shot of her signature head tilt with

Steemit Open Mic Week 67 entry - Look At Us (cover)
Thanks to a post-Christmas vacation back home in Florida, I've gotten to make some music with friends both old and new. Which sort of makes up for it being nearly as cold as it was in Colorado when I left.

Annoyed Pit Bull - animalphotography entry
If dogs could roll their eyes, I'm sure mine would do it every time I start taking pictures of her. "Come on Dad, not that thing again. Just play with me, or feed me cheese." That's pretty much

Steemit Open Mic Week 64 entry - Little Wing (Jimi Hendrix cover)
This week I got out of my usual acoustic open mic style and went electric. As I feared, I haven't been able to keep up with the songwriting challenge with work as crazy as it is this month. I did manage

Steemit Open Mic Week 62 entry - Crazy (Willie Nelson cover)
There’s nothing to warm you up on a cold Colorado day like a little Willie. Nelson, that is. This is one of the holy trinity of classic hits from short-haired Willie (still talking about Nelson), written

Steemit Open Mic Songwriters Challenge Week 2 - This Too Shall Pass
Well this challenge seems to have my creativity wide open. I wouldn’t say this is the fastest I’ve ever written a song (took a little while to sort out my chord voicings), but it was faster than I’ve done

OpenMic Songwriters Challenge Week 1 - The Crazy One
I always wanted to write a song where my ex is a fairy tale-style witch/evil queen/horrible person, but it just never worked. This broken mirror theme brought to mind the queen and her magic mirror in

Steemit Open Mic Week 61 entry - Tennessee Whiskey (Chris Stapleton cover)
This is one of only a handful of songs that when I sing it, I just want to put the guitar down and sing the shit out of it. Most of the time I prefer having my guitar in front of me, and I think of my

Head Over Heels (Tears For Fears acoustic cover)
This video makes me homesick. This is my good friend Alex Matos. We met in Seoul, South Korea in 1998, when we were both stationed at the 8th Army Band. He ended up in my hometown of Jacksonville, FL,

Happy Trucker Dog - animalphotography entry
This is the last photo I took of my baby girl Leia on the road. She was my trucking co-driver, and I took this at a welcome center in a beautiful mountain location in North Carolina on our last time out

Steemit Open Mic Week 60 entry - "Exit Music (For A Film)" - Radiohead cover
Here’s a little ditty about Romeo and Juliet. I’ve seen Radiohead play this live (at Stone Mountain, no less), and it was as transcendent then as it is on the studio recording on the album OK Computer.

“He not busy being born is busy dying.” That’s just one of many gems that originated in this song but have taken on new life in the English language and American culture. Songs like this are the reason

I took this on a rickety little country road in Texas where the speed limit was 75 mph (unfortunately I missed getting the speed limit sign in the shot). My truck was governed at 62, and even that was

Steemit Open Mic Week 58 entry - Voices (original song)
If you ever find yourself writing a song like this about yourself, stop what you are doing immediately. By all means finish writing the song and keep it if it's good, but stop what you are doing in life
