NEW PODCAST. It’s a quickie but I don’t usually make long ones. The short time away from the backwards nature of the city of los angeles allowed me to open up and write a new song. I saved it in my head and recorded it the night I returned. It’s quick…
The salvia trip is very short. Salvia once came to me in a dream. It held me down in a pool of calm and serene blackness. It said to me “you and I must meet again”. I have not yet made that appointment. “I can’t believe this is legal” was the first thing I said several minutes after coming back from another astral plane on my first trip.

Mexican anger over US ‘trespass’
Mexico’s parliament has condemned what it says is a border violation by US workers building a controversial barrier between the two countries.
Legislators say workers and equipment building a section of the barrier have gone 10 metres (yards) into Mexico.
The alleged border violation comes ahead of a high-level meeting in the Canadian capital Ottawa.
US, Mexican and Canadian foreign ministers are to discuss border security and trade issues.
Mexican legislators said they had photographs and video, taken on Monday, of the workers and heavy-duty construction equipment that showed them about 10 metres inside Mexico near the border city of Agua Prieta and the town of Douglas, Arizona.
The Mexican Foreign Minister Patricia Espinosa said she had complained to the US authorities and that the men and equipment had been withdrawn.
Chimpanzees ‘hunt using spears’
Chimpanzees in Senegal have been observed making and using wooden spears to hunt other primates, according to a study in the journal Current Biology.
Researchers documented 22 cases of chimps fashioning tools to jab at smaller primates sheltering in cavities of hollow branches or tree trunks.
The report’s authors, Jill Pruetz and Paco Bertolani, said the finding could have implications for human evolution.

… in Vermont. The snow buried the car and I slept in with Liz all day, missing my flight. This picture was taken in the morning and it snowed ALL day. The snow level got much higher and we had no money or food or boots to walk to the store but they delivered the flowers I ordered for Liz. We ate popcorn and old salmon burgers. Somehow, we didn’t get sick. All in all, the best Valentine’s day I’ve ever had.
