This blog is more than just a journal of my crazy, meaningless and confused existence in Northern California as a writer, a comedian and just a lover of all things even remotely pleasurable. No, it is much, much more than that, my little friends. In this blog, I will tell you most of my thoughts, some of my concerns, and several of my issues and dreams -- and anyone who is even slightly interested will hopefully be intrigued enough to read this -- this -- thing I call LIFE ON THE EDGE.

Grandfather Clocks are Wonderfully Old-School
There’s something so traditional and majestic about a grandfather clock. Whenever I see one, I think about old Victorian homes or legendary castles. Like Wayne Manor in the Batman series. Grandfather clocks are from the days when craftsmanship and detail were important. Now people have digital clocks that are about as beautiful as metal and plastic. A grandfather clock just makes you feel more secure, as it chimes in to tell you when a new hour is starting. As the Rolling Stones say, “Time is On Our Side” – and a grandfather clock makes us feel like it’s really true.
