fore! fore!

what a funny thing to shout as your drive heads for another golfer. yes, folks, it's golf season.. and not only that, but "national dogwalking month". okay, it's really not that (every month is), but we got a little hidden prize here: spring. slow to come in MI, but certain. and doing nothing, spring comes, and the grass grows itself. the mating season! this is why your friends are extra active (and crazy). so be certain to exercise utmost loving kindness to your pet.

surfing craigslist's "pets" section, it's obvious how many animals out there really need attention. this is of the utmost importance (well..along with eating animals, and killing them, and overpopulation, and serious distraction) to us, as humans, to lead this resurgence in awareness. it seems we are at the point when we can make that fatal move, to give up or to give all! all one or none!! all-one!!! (thanks Bronners)

music reviews belong in petblogs, right? Mike Gordon whales away, 16nov2011, somewhere in the midwest. a quality complimentary download. hints of 70s funk. country pick'n and grinnin'. chunky cowbell, creepy keys. spoonfuls of sandanista psychedelia. his solo project is beautiful- not to mention his 20 some (infinite) years in a band of gypsies. he met some dudes in college. many laughs later, a solo project. sounds like they're having fun- 2 hours and not a beat skipped.

but anyway. what separates us from animals? how can we not see these same complex emotions, anxiety, and confusion, and neglect? perhaps all emotions are complex...and all it takes is heart to simplify them. so what we're lookin' for here is some earth, heart, hear, earth ear, hear art. starting to notice the daylight hanging on. the caged bird sings, the dogs run, the cats hunt.
