It's not just about drug addiction but what led to the addiction that we fail to recognize, accept and handle in our own way." -Antonette Brown

While there some old friends come up to record their new album, a last ditch effort to revive a dying career.What unravels is a train wreck of lies, secrets, money, anger, and eventually a loaded gun to permanently fix things. Even the magic of rock'n'roll can't stop the rushing snowball. When things get worse one drunken night life stops making sense. When a reunion turns into a nightmare Cary finds himself as the private investigator to the rock stars.Author Aaron Joy is an upright bassist and former music blogger in Maine.

Sometimes some just want to play the drums, get paid and be offered something other than donuts and a gun as compensation.
In 1912 a young, American woman, Alice Ross (1890-1980), began a two-year trip around the world. Her itinerary included Hawaii, Samoa, New Zealand, Australia, the Philippines, Japan, China, Burma, Siam, India, Turkey, the Levant, Egypt and finally through Europe on the Orient Express. In the history of the earth, few people can have made such a comprehensive and leisurely journey, and essentially none of those would have been attractive, eligible women. "In Honolulu they liked me because I was game for anything in swimming, which counts more than anything there. In New Zealand I seemed more animated and had more initiative than the girls there. In Australia the reputation of the American girl has opened the way there for any who go, and in the Philippines I was simply "a new girl", and there new or old they are few and far between, and there are so many men that I think they would rush even a broomstick in petticoats. Now dear, I take no credit to myself, for I know I'm only an ordinary being, and any girl would have had the very same experiences I had, for many men proposed and begged me to marry them." So Alice summarizes her romantic adventures.Progressive, intrepid, inclusive, athletic, curious, ambitious. Are these the qualities of an Edwardian woman? We had always known that my grandmother had had extraordinary opportunities to travel widely when young. Decades after her death the letters she had saved from her journeys were put in my hands. Read over her shoulder as this 22 year-old literally travels around the globe. Alice Ross Garey is the daughter of an admiral. As one of very few Western women in "the orient" she has an all-access pass ensuring the hospitality of royalty and potentates in every nation. Yet her voice is that of a down to earth gal. The Queen of Hawaii and Sir Flinders Petrie are among the VIPs she meets. That 5-star hotel you'd like to try? Alice slept there. She traveled by horseback, buggy, ship, sedan chair, camel, rickshaw, elephant, Wright airplane, automobile, and train.She's traveling through Europe only a few months before the outbreak of WWI. It's like these letters are recording the end of a way of life; in a few short months, the world will be engulfed in the worst horrors of modernity and everything will change forever. Alice is getting home just in timeThis is factual material which reads like fiction. More than 40 photographs.
Deadtown in the '50s. It's one helluva place. You know the kind. If ever there was a slimy misty wet cesspool of a dive on the dark side of forever, the far wrong dark side of the wrong dark side of the tracks, yeah, that's Deadtown. The seediest slimiest sleaziest hellhole slime pit this side of Purgatory. It's a greasy place, dark and dank, with a misty fog that alternates with a misty rain. It never stops. Never. Buildings teeter on the verge of collapse, catering to the dark slimy seedy sleazy side of life with restaurants and bars and nightclubs and whore houses and drug dens. Beyond lay the hinterlands where misshapen horrors chew on the unsuspecting and spit out flesh and bone. Deadtown isn't a town actually, it's a city. Not much of a city, but it's a city. Occasionally you'll find a special nutcase lurking in the side streets and misty wet alleys. The Sleeper was one such special nutcase. Some would say that he was in a class all by himself. They would probably be right...

When we think of the "First Americans" we generally tend to think of the American Indian. After all, there is no doubt that the Indian has lived in North America for thousands of years, descended from those original explorers who trekked across the Bering land bridge. At least this is what we are taught in school. But is this entirely correct? Were there others that came perhaps before and during the original population of North and South America by those that would later be called "Native Americans"? Were there others that embarked on expeditions to the mysterious lands to the west (or east) that brought not only trade goods but knowledge and ideas of other religions, cultures and oral traditions?

There is nothing else to say or write- I am bored to death when words are not real, meaning that when they indicate only the so called speaking-body, the flesh that speaks: this is what has killed God- words that are not companions to one's Act.
