The boys, Regina and I were all set for a day out. Our errands before us we piled into the mini-van and set off on our adventure. The day was blustery and overcast but our moods were light and jolly. Our first stop was Sakura in Oakland to pick up some replacement parts for our … Read More “A visit to the doctor and domestic affairs” »
A simple thing to fallow emotions heart, and lay to ruin fruits cloistered apart. A trivial matter to wreak havoc seed. To wallow in might of passions need and rend from heart those secret deeds. Thus beauty once fair is gone. And kept in love a darkest plight, forever chained to lovers spite. For in the … Read More “Stay Thy Passion” »

I’ve been writing of late to understand the role of the private person within the sphere of public. I’ve also been cogitating about the role of the private corporation in the sphere of public. Placing the two together, that is the role of the private person within the corporation within the public sphere, is a … Read More “Democratic Corporate Tyranny” »
Regina left this week to take care of her Dad who suffered a heart attack. She, along with her sisters and brothers, are ministering her father back to health. While she will only be gone a short week it seems like an eternity for me and the boys. All of us have become use to … Read More “Being a Dad and not quite a Mom” »
I’ve been reading a book of essays critiquing the Public Sphere by Jurgen Habermas. The essayists are critiquing the theory in order to improve on or identify the deficiencies of the theory of Public Sphere. This is my second time reading the book. The first was a decade ago and my internalization of the material … Read More “Revitalization of the Public Sphere on super-capitalist grounds” »
