"after the last tree is gone from the forest


after the last fish has left the waters

after the last bird falls from the air

Only then will you find...

that money cannot be eaten"

U.S.S. Columbia

I dedicated this signed digital print to the crew of the Space Shuttle Columbia after that horrific re-entry catastrophe, not long after I came back home to my beloved native Florida after fifteen long cold years in Denver. So it pays homage to both. The 14" X 11" image is digitally printed onto high quality low acid paper, with a narrow border to allow for matting. The cost is  $125 plus shipping.

SSTs That Never Were








I have loved sleek jets and rockets since I was ten years old in Kincheloe, Michigan, so I was delighted to find these images of super-futuristic SST design proposals. I especially love the swing wing one that has full double delta wings behind the swing wings that then function as rear horizontal stabilizers. When it comes to futuristic cars, planes and rockets, I will always be happily ten years old!  Enjoy the pics, John

My favorite songs

I am 58, now offered the blessing of looking back at my life to date and, at times, discerning the many gifts, including the life-shaping songs 'Why' and 'I Am The Walrus' that I cherish to this day. John

I saw this great post about an article about the Westboro "God Hates Fags" Christians

"In order to be a homophobe it has to occupy a significant part of your brain, and this means that homophobes are thinking about men/women rubbing penises/vaginas together in a 24/7 gay porno. That’s an awful lot of gay thoughts for supposedly straight people who hate gays. I bet even gay people don’t think about gay stuff as much as homophobes do."

Very Cool Looking Russian Airplane

Once again I  choose to separate the intended function of a radical airplane (killing people in vast numbers) with how cool it looks since I have loved making flying models and paper airplanes since I was ten in 1963. I think this Russian bomber is stunning, especially due to the swing-wings. John
