More tributes to Rick
Nick at The Scratching Post writes: Most of all he was a nice guy, and I’m not just saying that to be polite. He’s another reminder that it’s not the things we leave behind that we’ll be remembered for; it’s the way we treat other people.

"Folks Behind the Faces"
The fire that ate Rick’s house will have eaten his old Martin D28. Will have eaten his old Telecaster. May have left untouched the Graphite that George Coates talked Rick into buying, just like Rick should have left it on the music store wall, so Marty told him. The fire will have eaten his “Come…

Guess the song
Boingboing has a link to a video of San Francisco Ballet principal dancer Muriel Maffre performing “Ballet Mori”…conducted by the earth.

Entropy Circus, strawberries and popsicles
Earlier was having a very nice time sitting here eating strawberries and listening to Entropy Circus’ The Goats & The Peacock from Open Source Audio.

The Show Must Go On (not, but seems to be)
“Pinocchio, you’ve returned!” And here am I, the first decent morning I’ve had in a while, the whale’s mouth opening a crack. H.o.p. is running in to yell, “The garbage truck is here! The garbage truck is here!” Bang, boom, crash. He sits back down at the computer to draw some more of the marvelous…

Wacom and plainchant
This is going to take some getting used to, but, oh yeah, Wacom! Listening to madrigals and drawing with the new Wacom, a fine way to spend an evening. Except I don’t have any madrigals, for which reason I’m at Amazon clicking over and over again on offered selections. And as it turns out, H.o.p.…

Thumbs Carllile

Rexroth’s Daughter wrote a beautiful post on the how and why she is a collector of handshakes and her passion for it is a beautiful one unsullied by dropping-name ambitions, each handshake opening to the worlds of those others and the people…
