The here and now... and what and why

Complacency is a trap. At least that’s what I was thinking when I up and left the comfort of a Yankee prep school gig, where I taught music, amongst other things, for 28 years. There was also that life long career as a composer, musician and artist.

First, it was a year in St. Thomas, USVI, working as a reporter and shooting photography and then, a year in San Agustin Etla, Oaxaca, Mexico.
Time passed.
More time passed and a year back in the Athens of America followed by a hasty return to Oaxaca where it is all happening.
A couple of years in San Sebastian Etla and now, just down the road in San Pablo Etla. Life is good.

You can find my music on Jango (World & latin - Worldbeat) and at iTunes and most online stores.

If you are coming to Oaxaca, please contact me for tours or advice.

"Wetbacks" - Srsly?????

Sometimes I think people forget that the whole world is wired in 24/7/365 and that if you say or do something stupid, there is a good chance it will go viral.   The country to the south of El Norte is not completely enamored with US Rep. Don Young for his comments, but greatly appreciates his efforts on behalf of the GOP's Latino outreach.  Also, too, his tried and true non-apology. "I'm sorry if I offended anyone."

Uh... which I guess maybe I should use now... Sorry if I offended anyone.

On the other hand, the big story here is that the Pope washed the feet of two........ (OMG) women!!!!
Maybe, just maybe, things are gonna get better this millennium.
