So much light

A few black hatches

Yet the dark

Against the light

Stains the mind

with meaning.

 

Remember, Smokey, when you said

Only I could prevent forest fires?

You lied, you son of a bitch bruin,

You smug bear bastard.

 

So much light

So little darkness

Just enough to stain.

This is my home page. We all must have one.

I was born in Taunton the same moment they killed Giordano Bruno in Rome. I grew up into a biped possessed of language skills. The blessing of bipedalism cannot be overstated. True, there is increased risk of back pain, and the demand placed upon the hind paws is considerable.

One may say that bipedalism is a mixed blessing, but not so mixed perhaps as language skills. So many words I would take back. But time marches inexorably towards an end upon which I cannot comment having never experienced.

I am in the process of documenting the restoration of an old violin.

I have documented the creation of spool clamps of the variety oft used by luthiers to hold the top to a violin while the glue dries. As well, I have documented the creation of crack clamps.

I have documented the modification of a Kun violin shoulder rest transforming it into an ultra short Kun for those of us who have short necks.

It is possible that I am peddling wares of one sort or another on ebay. If that is so, you will see them listed below. Bid often and bid high.
