In the spirit of Christmas I bring you the best clip from Christmas Story. The mother’s scene-ending reaction is priceless.

I’ve refreshed the book trailer for Searching for Alpha Centauri in a ’64 Chevy (3:32 min).

No, it’s not about outer-space. The video (and the book) is basically my “mostly humorous” nomadic experience as a young laddybuck in the early 1960s, living with parents who were, arguably, “nuts.”

At the time, it all felt like fiction. But, alas, it wasn’t.

Heard this old tune again, today. Easily one of my all-time favorites. It is hard to believe Jackson Browne wrote this soulful song when he was only 16 years of age.

Here he is, with David Lindley, at an outdoor concert in 2015.
