Hunting Without Killing
The sky opens the morning to a ceiling of porcelain blue above the pines and rusted leaves. A man in a bright orange cap and vest leans across a rail from a hunting stand letting the 20-gauge shotgun settle on … Continue reading

Honkytonkulous
What do you say when you hear a really good country song? What do you say when you hear a really bad one? Now you can say both in one word: Honkytonkulous. Let the intent be nebulous like so much … Continue reading

Lonely-Flamed-Lemon-Beer-Orange-Grilled-Chicken-Thing
{Note: While I don’t agree with everything those 2 gentlemen are doing in that video up there, I do like the weird music, the dude’s Sam Elliot-esque voice and the crowing rooster at the end.} This is not an authentic … Continue reading

Get Low
The packed theater darkens. There are no previews. What flows across the screen appears to be 1930’s Tennessee. Accents like the ones I grew up with in Alabama pour from the Dolby speakers. My mind returns to the storytellers I … Continue reading
Copywriters Don’t Write Anymore
