….like space junk, it’s still out there… orbiting the internet, not hurting anything. It’s been dormant for two years and I suppose that I just could have picked up where I fell off in 2009.  Wouldn’t that have been a surprise to my 7 or 8 followers? There were a few pretty good posts on there…maybe I’ll link them or copy them here. I also contribute to my work website and I write about music for a small, national blog.  Still, I feel like a need a (new) place just for me.

I’m trying to decide how anonymous I want to be here on the new blog. That always seems like a good idea until you realize that you can’t talk about your family, your job or two-thirds of your past experiences and remain anonymous.  Besides, like most people, my best writing is personal.

I’ve been listening to a ton of power pop of late: Marshall Crenshaw, Big Star, Todd Rundgren, Don Dixon, Wilco (where appropriate), The Records, Matthew Sweet. This is the best power pop song of the past 3-4 years.
