Now its been more than a year since the last post. 2008 has been a pretty good year for me. Did some good gigs with Giant Bug Village and also Graham & The Crackers. Seems like both bands are taking a break right now. Also did some performances at the UU Church and folks seemed to dig what I was doing. Currently serving as the chair of the music committee at said church, and also leading the team that deals with gay and lesbian issues.

We're no longer doing the ACIM discussion group, though I sure enjoyed that experience and the people involved

In the last year I've been enjoying some podcasts such as:

There's some folks that have a podcast of the text of ACIM and its pretty good too. Maybe in 2009 I'll finally keep going with the WORKBOOK for acim ---seem like I've started a couple times and fallen off around February (I need the calendar thingy that helps you track which lessons you're on.

Oh yeah, I heartily endorse the website called The Daily Grail for a thoughtful round-up of various fringe topics and news-of-the-wierd. The site gives a much-needed boost to those who dare to attempt the serious study of those topics generally deemed "out-of-bounds" by the various gatekeepers of the scientific community.

I still have a pile of books that are mostly un-read. Amongst these titles are:
  • The Kybalion
  • Galactic Alignment (by John Major Jenkins)
  • 2012 (by Mark Borax)
  • Cosmos & Psyche
  • Middlesex
  • Conversations with The Children of Now
  • The Source (about The Family)

Seems like I haven't posted in a while. After that last one in 2010, I fell into a funk and had a serious health-scare in early 2014. I'm doing much better now. Health is decent and I bought my latest house in early 2015. It's not far from the previous two, over there near NE Prescott in the East Cully neighborhood. Mr. Howl ended but most of the same folks formed a new band called Lagoon Squad doing surfy instrumentals before adding a chick singer for the 2016 Nuggets Night. We're still doing Giant Bug Village and I'm now on bass, with some new kids on guitars and drums and Stan still singing.

Lots to report since my last post but I will keep it a quick summary. Mr. Howl is still playing occasional (in the 60's garage-psych genre) Stan has some shows coming-up and we're working on the new CD supposedly. Did some duo shows with Michele at Beaterville and even did a couple of solo gigs. Got a cool apartment over in the Alberta district. Still doing some music at the liberal, non-christian, church and working with the high-school group.

Songs of The Arcturians Lots to cover this time but I'll try to make it somehow connected. First off, I don't much care for black-or-white thinking. I don't object to "cafeteria style" spirituality, since there seems to be nuggets of truth to be found in many different traditions, disciplines and fields of study. I was impressed by a recent PBS special featuring Dr. Wayne Dyer called The Power of Intention (based on his book of the same title.) The inspiration for this book came from a line by Carlos Castenada , whose many books deal with the Toltec tradition. Dr. Dyer also quoted from Don Miguel Ruiz , another proponent of the Toltec wisdom and a favorite of Oprah. I was suprised when Wayne mentioned that he is a longtime student of A Course In Miracles (or ACIM) since this is considered (gasp) a "channeled" work. I'm sure he knows about the Seth books too, though he did not mention these. Other sources and stories came from various Eastern t...
