I'm waging a one-man crusade to save western civilization and culture from bots, bigots, bores, bullies, boors and bad language! Anyone using cuss words on here will be blocked and have their comments removed.
Speak your piece
and vent your likes
and dislikes while you may
For freedom is a fragile thing
and may soon be snatched away
and then you'll only be able to speak
and act in a prescribed way - OldGrumpyGuy

About Me:
I always know what's wrong and right; I'm never ineffectual
I'm tolerant of peccadillos cultural and sexual
provided they don't frighten children, horses or marsupials
(yes I know marsupials doesn't rhyme exactly, but this is modern verse for heaven's sake)
I'm versed in economics, literature and music classical
Affairs of state, society and things ecclesiastical
My breadth of arcane knowledge can be said to be fantastical
Except no intellectual would use the word fantastical
(too jejune, you know)
I've read Remembrance Of Things Past by Proust in the original
I've read Karl Marx and Schopenhauer and others philosophical
I've read through War and Peace four times until I felt I'd had my fill
Of all things Russian and the insights that such reading can instill
I'm never one to judge my fellow man by his exterior
The problem is so many lack an interesting interior
I cannot help but be aware that I am quite superior
When most of mankind is so inescapably inferior
I think I should be president, for it is very clear to me
I know much more than any politician how things ought to be
I'd volunteer my services, except it's very plain to see
That folk in general are too dumb to ever want to vote for me.

Just wanted to let you know I am enjoying your videos, music and art. I am a similar sort of person to yourself (one who writes, does artwork, composes, has experience with theater, etc.) I've been a big reader throughout my life, too. So your page is very neat for me to see.
I went looking for short stories, lit, videos about authors etc. (to watch during my luncheon) and landed here. Then I explored you on Google and found many delightful things.
I am prolific like yourself, have created much art, writing, recordings, films, etc., (and have done about ten thousand live performances, believe it or not!). But I've been rather low key lately, concentrating mainly on writing essays and making art. Your page (plus nudges from my muse and some synchronicities in my life) are encouraging me to post more here. So, ty for encouraging me with your Youtube presence!
Michael :)
Just wanted to drop by and say that I am really looking forward to your next video. It has been quite a while since I dropped by to send you a line, but I have been busy lately. I shall hopefully be uploading some videos of my own soon. I hope that if you view them that they do not disappoint you in any way. Any thought of what your next video will be on?
Sincerely,
M. Grant
