Hi. Who am I? Where should I begin? I am a socialist, father, husband, not-very-good jazz guitar player, occasional poet. I'm retired, but for some 45 years earned my living as a structural engineer - for more about that, you can visit my other web page. I also have a blog, "Persistent Wondering", which is not often updated, these days.
This is a very old web site, and very basic. I make a few edits, from time to time, but I've mostly left it untouched. In the past, I've helped with web sites for a couple of political organizations, including Boston Democratic Socialists of America and Progressive Newton, but Boston DSA has changed both webmasters and url, and I am not actively managing PN's site, either. For a couple of years (2012-13), I hosted a weekly internet radio program on Occupy Boston Radio. Recordings of those shows were available online for a long time, but don't seem to be, anymore. It least I can't find them. (I do have my own copies of most, and could repost, I guess.)
While in the political vein, here is a little set of charts I did on wealth and income inequality (kinda old, now).
Then, here's a list of books, and also another. And some guitar playing vids, for those who really love me, or are masochists. These are kind of old, now, though. I'm a lot better, now... I think.
This page has jazz-related stuff. And here's a bit of poetry that I happen to have been "published" from time to time on social media, and is therefore ineligible for publishing most other places.
Or, have some fun searching for Guitar Chords (Chordie kind of a cool site. Jazz is not prominently featured, but you can find some.):
(You may need to click "Search" again after you get there... Check out the "transpose" feature - a labor-saver!)
(I don't check those links regularly, so I apologize if some are now broken.)
