Greetings, dear friends, Once again I write to you from that state of confusion, that unnerving feeling when one takes stability, a life humming along, and intentionally disrupts it. I parallel-parked a mid-size U-Haul tonight...that only took me about 5 five back-and-forths and getting out twice ...
It's amazing that a city like LA, which bemoans the loss of the film industry, does so little to prevent the loss of film screenings.
Greetings, friends, Those of you from Los Angeles will understand that, even though I've been in my apartment for 15 years, I don't know all of my neighbors. Today I'm referring to the couple just north of my building. I've watched as they made significant improvements to their house, aged and r...
Greetings, friends, After a mild spring, summer is slowly warming up my City of the Angels. The furnace has been off for weeks, and the fan is out. I can sleep on top of the sheets, and sometimes leave the door open all night. I love it. I...
Greetings, friends, I felt like sending out a leaner, meaner screed to those who believe in CALIFORNIA LIBRE...if only because the sun is out again, the nights are sultry and the jacarandas are in full bloom. I also have an important scientific theory to correct. First, though, some brief a...
Greetings, friends, The winter of 2008-2009 just evaporated from a blur into nothing, into that flash in the rear-view that you thought was a cop, but was just some eroded fragment of glass on the shoulder. The last screed I spattered in your general direction was just after the Winter ...
Greetings, friends, I'm off on a two-day hike to the Bridge to Nowhere, but I wouldn't want to leave you high 'n dry for the Great Resurrection Holiday. A new screed is coming soon! In the meantime, some movies that might tide you over and bring you favor in the eyes of THE LORD. And some of th...

Still no signs of change in West Lima Wisconsin but the bewitching Martian sunset is broadcasting at a frequency unlike anything I’ve ever seen.
Greetings, friends, Alas, no holiday card again this year. Not that it hasn't been a year of changes...huge changes. I was suddenly laid off in February by my employer of 11 years, the City of Los Angeles, but after some months of flailing I found a new place with the City of Inglewood. Th...
Greetings, friends, Was it only ninety years ago that our great-grandfathers were dying in the trenches? Everybody's talking about how far America has come (and how far it hasn't.) Let's pause to accept a timid pat on the back on behalf of the whole world. We are way too sophisticated to re...
Greetings, friends, It was a quiet Halloween, maybe because the real terror is about to begin. It's the night of 3 November, hunkered in my apartment, feeling that calm before the storm. Outside the window, I can hear the crowd a block away in front of the local gay bar, Woody's...ahem, M...
Joel J. Rane Scream at the Librarian was one of many artist's books featured at the 2008 FIAC (International Contemporary Art Fair) in Paris.
This article is very direct: Obama: l'Espoir d'un Retour à l'Amérique Tocquevillienne http://www.letemps.ch/template/opinions.asp?page=6&article=242668 Translation: Obama: The Hope of a Return to Tocquevillian America h...
TOP 5 REASONS OBAMA SUPPORTERS SHOULDN'T REST EASY 1. The polls may be wrong. This is an unprecedented election. No one knows how racism may affect what voters tell pollsters—or what they do in the voting booth. And the polls are narrowing anyway. ...
Greetings, friends, September is always a favorite time of year, and not just because I'm beginning year 44 on Earth (and remember, a birthday is not an anticipation, but a victory over the past.) The weather always crackles here in LA in September...summer literally broke in one night a few ...
