Moments in Time.... Kurt Roehrig rest in peace

Jon Kurt Roehrig October 28, 1956 to July 22, 2024 Kurt was my boss, my employer, my teacher and mentor. He was a father figure on so many levels and my life is better for the time I spent with him and the life he shared with me. He went peacefully the morning of July 22 in the care of hospice and his family. W Kurt changed the way we race. He was a great engineer, an amazing person and a fantastic mentor to so many of us.

Moments in Time.... from a room in Thailand with Florence

April 2024: Sitting in a hotel room, somewhere near Pluak Daeng, Thailand. Finding this song, a live recording from Oxegen Festival 2010.  An amazing performance.  "And I never wanted anything from you Except everything you had And what was left after that too, oh"   Florence + The Machine - Dog Days Are Over (Lyrics) Happiness hit her like a train on a track Coming towards her, stuck still no turning back She hid around corners, and she hid under beds She kill

Neal Adams - thank you

Yeah, I knew Neal; I knew him well. You see he used to draw for me from some never ending well of talent and color; creations built upon a mighty palette. A wheel that circled and changed, brought forth lines and magic for my eager mind to absorb. He would tell me stories of heroes and villains; equal to both so that neither were greater. He put me to bed and then made it fly, shrieks of terror and nowhere to hide. He penciled the man with Super powers and he did this for me so I could understan

A moment in time ..... Topography of Terror

Visiting Berlin I came upon the outside portion of the museum called the Topography of Terror. It is a history of the rise of the National Socialist Party in Germany leading up to War World II. And while that history is never easy to learn, or learn again, it is a must to see and read. Being outside brings on to feel the elements on the body while the soul is forced to encounter the deeds. While no claims of the most unjust can ever be made, I found this picture, this moment in time, to be the f

In My Tribe - a tribute to a snippet in time

In My Tribe I joined a band 10,000 strong devoted to the mirth and song I danced and laughed and cried along acting right and acting wrong Memories burned and seared branded by emotional tear I wondered what’s the Matter often, standing in the rain like Weather While I sat, no Talking from the Trees, Joshua Painted the Desert forever Jack spoke of Peace from a glory-Train protected by the Gun Shy Laying stories by the Campfire, songs to leave us high.

Waking in a moment of time....

I call these episodes "waking in a moment of time". These are moments or realization, when you wake up and realize what is happening, what you are doing are tiny little glimpses into what makes you smile or feel alive but they happen in real time; not in reflection.... Taiwan - Jason - travel life. "I woke up in a moment" while riding with my good friend Jason in Taiwan. I met him through work and even through a language barrier, we seem to have a connection. The people of Taiwan are b
