How I Got This Way- OperaThe first opera I ever saw was Verdi's Aida, at the San Francisco War Memorial Opera house.   
I was six.   
That same year, I saw Pagliacci and Suor Angelica.   
To this day, I have no idea what made my parents think that I was ready.... but to my great surprise, I was.   
For a six year old, anyway.   
Dad always listened to opera when I was little- inherited from his own parents, and certainly an odd thing, culturally speaking, for a member of the Laborer's Union to regard as his favorite music.   
But my father, who had seen Jimi Hendrix open for Jefferson Airplane at the Fillmor How I Got This Way- Opera

How I Got This Way- Marsh HawkOne of the earliest pictures of me where I can recognize myself was taken way back in the 80s.... I was VERY young The exact date escapes me, but I can't have been older than six years, because in the picture, I don't have glasses. I have both arms thrust in front of me, with a heavy set of leather gloves on, and my eyes are squinted against a strong wind. Perched on my hand is a marsh hawk, whose wings are invisible, a brownish blur, because it's taking to the air.   
That, I suspect, is as close as I will ever come to being a falconer.   
The hawk I am releasing was found by a relative of mine by the side of a road in Ca How I Got This Way- Marsh Hawk

Nine Years On

Sat Aug 8, 2009, 10:41 PM
Nine years ago, a good friend of mine died in a senseless car wreck on the road to Valdez.

He was eighteen.... just like the rest of us from the class of 2000.

He was the only guy I knew who had no enemies. He was also possessed of an unshakable self-confidence and a generous spirit.

And the fact that he, of all people, died the summer we graduated is so goddamned tragic it's almost funny.

Almost.

Happy trails, man.

We still miss ya.
