Review: “Devolution” By Max Brooks

People who read this blog have probably noted a change in the material I have reviewed lately. Recent subjects include: permaculture, radicalism in the 1970’s, pre-history revisionism, and yes, Bigfoot. The fact is, I am in a political burn-out mode and needed some breathing room with off-beat subject matter. Rarely do I read fiction, but […]

Review: Building A Better World In Your Backyard

Sitting here by my window, with over ten inches of snow on the ground, is a great time to review this Permaculture book by Paul Wheaton and Shawn Klassen-Koop. I’ve been working on farms and orchards since the 1980’s, but this book is an inspiration to step up my game. Paul Wheaton is a bear […]

  • Review: “Mind Games – The Assassination Of John Lennon”
    “Mind Games” is a great “Who-Done-it”. Of course, I am old enough to have remembered the December 1980 killing of Lennon – as well as that of JFK, King, And RFK.

The sub-title of the book is “How I Uncovered The Biggest Lie […]
  • Review: The End Of The World Is Just The Beginning
    This book, “The End Of The World..” by Peter Zeihan was quite interesting to read and share. Clearly, I had never heard of Zeihan, mainly because my political analysis has been way different, and it appears he mainly writes for the investor class. With that said, I really liked reading this book. As I wrote, […]
  • Why I Have Stopped Reading “End Of The World” Books
    Why I Am Not Reading “End of the World” Books Anymore I have come to somewhat of a decision, at least for now. I have chosen not to read more “How the world ends” stuff anymore (at least for a while). Here is what I mean; I believe the scenarios as presented, and if they […]
  • Things Were Really Different (Boy I Am Getting Old)
    How Different Things Were Then I write this on Christmas day, 2023. I moved to the island ( in a converted school bus) in October of ’95. I know I sound like an old man, which I am becoming, but things really were different back then. When I first moved here to the island, there […]
