I never expected us to get to the point where we are openly talking about the realities of UFOs and aliens. Like many Americans I had long ago lost faith in any idea of truth or honesty when it comes to dealing with our Federal government. I also lost faith in the deeply distracted public who, throughout my life, had obsessed over meaningless nonsense while avoiding difficult problems. Now that this has come to the forefront we are forced to battle not only with the facts being presented but also the stigma dispersed over many decades of foolish ignorance. President Trump has ordered the government to tell the public what they know about these subjects. They are sitting on 80 years of information, much of which has been classified and kept from us. If you don't understand what is going on you need to watch the documentary Age of Disclosure . It covers a number of UFO related topics but primarily it breaks down the congressional hearings on the subject. Why am I writing about this...

  Growing up there were some hopeless times. I had an alcoholic father, often no working vehicle or job prospects and there was little room for me at home. I lived in a tent, a van, in a shed and on the floor of my parents laundry room. A big part of the problem was simply a lack of support. I needed to break away and try to make it on my own. That journey was fraught with failure and took several attempts. "It was Survival" expressed my deep need to escape these bad situations. It tells of the desperation I felt and how far I was willing to go while also keeping my sanity in tact. Ultimately I landed far away. I made new friends, found new jobs and survived. This song is a lifeline of hope to all of those who haven't made it out yet. It can be done, I'm living proof. Sometimes you have to get a little creative and take big chances but in the end it's worth it. It was Survival is available on most major music platforms Spotify     Apple Music     YouTube ...

While my first love was martial arts, my second love was bodybuilding. I started working out at 13 years old and though I wanted to achieve that superhero size and strength, I knew it was going to be a long journey. I was a skinny kid, only 116 pounds in high school. Plus, I had an eating disorder that made it very difficult to put on weight. Still, I persisted. 1994 - 143 pounds - 150pd bench I worked out at home and later signed up to a gym. I took every supplement imaginable but still it took forever to put on muscle. You could call it a lifetime goal. I didn't pass 200 pounds in body weight until I was in my forties. That's when I had a serious home gym of my own. I followed IFBB Pro Ben Pakulski's MI40 interactive training program and finally I was the monster I always wanted to be. 2020 - 224 pounds - 250pd bench It was in 2020 that I got to achieve a related goal in attending the Mr. Olympia competition. Normally the big contest took place in Las Vegas but due to th...

  We all have moments of torment so traumatic that it leaves a mark. My divorce was shocking and unexpected, those break ups are the worst. Overcoming feelings of betrayal and broken promises can crush a person's belief in others. That makes it difficult to trust and move on.  Finding myself in a new relationship while also dealing with the pain of the last one has been no easy task. Walk With Me is a request to my new partner, an understanding that I still have things to work through while asking that she joins me on this new journey.  This song is about letting go of heavy, old baggage in order to embrace a new, young love. The vocals express pain and hope simultaneously. There is nothing more therapeutic than taking someone's hand and walking towards a better tomorrow. Listen to Walk With Me    Spotify     Apple Music

   Long before I discovered girls, I had a boyfriend. From the ages 13 to 19, I had a secret relationship with my best friend. Back in the 1980's you had to keep that type of thing a secret. Ever since then I have had a series of relationships with women but I still have an eye for a certain type of guy. Bisexual from the start and to this very day. I became a writer back in the early 1990's and one of the first things I wrote was a Gay/Lesbian/Bisexual guidebook for surviving in a somewhat hostile society. Fast forward to 2004, I wrote and published Virgin Gloves . This is the first ever novel in history about a Gay prizefighter. This book was sold on Amazon and in select Barnes & Noble stores. It was reviewed in Ring Magazine and Boxing Digest. I went on to do my part writing about issues affecting LGBTQ+ people. I worked on political campaigns and attended city council meetings. I was a patron for gay artists. Heck, I even clerked in a gay bookstore. Fast forward to 202...

  Imagine a traveling band that performs emo/punk covers in front of live audiences but for every individual song the lead singer is a fan from the crowd. This phenomena is called Emo Night Karaoke and it takes place all across America.  My girlfriend introduced me to these shows and they are phenomenal. She has climbed up on stage several times in different states and wailed to the masses. The audience knows the words to every song and quite often they support the singer by following along.  My Goth Goddess is the story of how she prepares for these shows. It mostly involves picking a song and practicing until it feels solid. The battle of nerves and anticipation ebbs and flows. The rest is all guts and glory. The video below is her performance at the House of Blues in Orlando, Florida. She is doing what I could never dream of, being a star on the stage. I'm so proud of her every time that I needed to express it in my lyrics. This song is for her but also for anyone who...
