Used the phrase "we three" in a sentence with friends, each of whom will know this song, and are even likely to think of it. A personal favorite among ostensibly second tier Patti Smith songs. It's about Tom Verlaine, mostly. The pre-song anecdotes here are delicious in a distinctly Patti way.

Dear Mr. America's Favorite President: As you so blithely contemplate the demolition of other Presidents' monuments by your personal fiat, you may be sure that the Nation will feel free, with relish and abandon, to demolish your own gaudybaubles, before the exit door can smite your sorry fundament.

Is there no one in the White House wiling to slam their open hand down hard and resoundingly on the Resolute Desk while shouting, at the topmost of their lungs, "Do you even LISTEN to yourself, man?!?"

You may not make money directly in Humanities but it's Humanities folk who'll save the world overall from the grubbers whose only concern is da money. As Gandalf has it: “If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.” Wake up, you've got to make merry!

George Wallace @wallacegeo.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

Is it Kirkian dogma that all of his historic foes went to Heaven? Or are they infernal daytrippers, brought in so that Charlie will have something to do with his time for Eternity?

Good lord, is that man still talking? Even his friends [imaginary or other] are surfeited with the sound of that voice. We are drowned in him, and I would far rather it was in a butt of malmsey.

He has a thousand phrases and sentence fragments, he tosses them in the air, picks a dozen or so, and s[p]its them out on Troth Sucaryl. That's all there is to it: Cut ups all the way down, and not even interesting cut ups. Chopped & soothy.

My wife has been travelling out of state the past few days. I have been able to keep track of her whereabouts, thanks to the Expedia survey emails that arrive each time she checks in or out. "Great left turn you made out of the lot! How was your vehicle pickup experience?"

My parents had the best marriage I've ever known: each preferred the other's company to any other other's. (Allowances were always made for my sisters and for me.) I'm torn on the existence of afterlives, but tonight there's nothing I wish for more than that they have been reunited. Farewell, Mamà.💔

What, if any, connections are there between Ravi Shankar and Miles Davis? Because Shankar's appeal to The Youth at Monterey is awe-inspiring and it would be cool if it led even indirectly to Bitches Brew.

My first impression of the new Saul Williams is very positive. My first S. Williams encounter (ca. 2019) was 'Ancestral Recall' w/ [now] Chief Adjuah (known by many names), & that album still resonates abundantly. Recommended, on many axes. chiefadjuah.bandcamp.com/album/ancest...

Bluesky isn't Facebook (thank goddess) so I hope it's not a faux pas to post a "sunset dinner" photo from our 40th Anniversary weekend on the Central Coast. Block me if you must.

Sunset, August 28, 2026, from the Ventana Grill, Shell Beach, California.

Apropos of nothing in this story, I have seen many a "Much Ado" in my day, and young Sam Waterston remains my favorite Benedick, even over Branagh.

An autographed photo, signed by Sam Waterston, of himself, as Benedick, with Kathleen Widdoes as Beatrice, in the 1973 televised New York Shakespeare Festival production of W. Shakespeare's "Much Ado About Nothing."
Damn! That was a wonderful production.

Some of my favorite music of the mid-'80s. If Low and 'Heroes' had been a double album, all the songs on disk 1 and all the instrumentals on disk 2, you would have a less moody version of Gone to Earth. And in addition to Robert Fripp, you get Bill Nelson's guitar [Be Bop Deluxe] into the bargain.
