The Beat Goes On
In caves near Lascaux, France, perhaps 20,000 years ago, the occupants scratched on its walls drawings of the bison they saw outside. Obviously, the bison were important enough to the cave’s occupants to record them; they may have been the world’s first reporters. The drawings have long attracted great attention.
The significant events of history are usually well recorded, but the ordinary, the bison, and how they were portrayed give the reader or viewer a granular sense of human affairs over time. Here I continue a chronicle of my journey, stumbles and all, through the wondrous mystery of one life, its amazement, amusement and occasional enlightenment.

I do not suffer from the delusion that the words and thoughts herein are timeless; they are just my wall scratchings.
