Blog? Website? Chicken or egg? Whatever you want to call it, welcome to it :) It goes back to April 2006 and has morphed into a writing, photo and music repository for much of my crap. I use the word crap in the affirmative though - CReative APproaches. I also like to pretend I’m somewhat literate and can form coherent opinions and arguments on things that cross my mind. The key word being ‘pretend’ of course …and so you’ll find a lot of posts that ramble on about stuff. For those I apologize in advance. If I ramble too much please let me know! Besides that, there’s not really a whole lot more to add.
There’s a menu bar at the top that’s somewhat self-explanatory. Poetry-old is the early attempts (80-90′s) while new is newer. Ditto for music. The Music-new/downloads also contains downloadable mp3′s and full previews of my tunes. Loops as well. Photos go to my Flickr site. On the far right you’ll find a ‘Random Post’ heading that, when you click it, drudges up a random post from the past. Lucky you. There’s over a thousand to chose from too. I know. [Serious Bit] As stated in the sidebar, all images, music and written content is copyright to yours truly (unless otherwise noted) and registered through the Library of Congress, so if you’d like to use anything please ask. You’re guaranteed to be able to use things non-commercially by just crediting me and linking back to this site, but commercial interests will have to be discussed at length.
That’s it I think. If you want to know more about me personally ….well, you’ll find it somewhere around here. Heck, this blog probably knows more about myself than I do by now. If you have anything to say just use the ‘Leave a comment’ link under each post or page (there’s a sharing button as well if you’re into that social-media stuff) and don’t worry if it’s on a post that goes back a ways …I get notified when any comment is made. For stuff more personal in nature, please email me at the address at the bottom of the picture. That’s me btw, Troy. I usually wear glasses though, but I thought it was a good shot. Jonny took it.
Thanks for visiting :)
Chanced upon your blog and liked the poems :) Keep on writing. Will visit again.
Peace.

Hi Navita …thank-you!
And yes, for better or for worse, the ‘old’ music is mine.

Cute blog, thanks for the picture,
Sunday July 06 2008, at Naked on Jasper Cybercafe, (yes. they have 2 Imac 20) there will be a Remembering…
Happened upon your blog.. I enjoyed listening to you sing.
I enjoy reading your blogs, Troy…it’s funny I am learning more about you now…after 25 years [barely knew you in high school]…kind of weird, hey?:)
Maybe I should consider doing a blog ofmy own…I too, am shy, and it might be “therapuetic” for me as well [although I don't need therapy].

Surprisingly good and refreshing.
Thanks Pato …I feel like a bottle of Coke ;)
