Oh, I’ve been busy, I have. What’s more, the nifty *FREE GIFTS* download system for FarrFlash subscribers is now in place.
If you sign up for my weekly newsletter by going here, you’ll be directed to a download page for the latest Holy Fire Journal. Volume 4 features the last four columns I’ve written for Horse Fly, a one-of-a-kind monthly newspaper here in Taos. Since Holy Fire Journal is a PDF, I’ve been able to add some great color photos that go with the essays.
And of course there’s GRACK!. If you’re into cool shots of 1971 Gibson ES-335 12-strings, this is the column for you. Here’s the blurb:

[GRACK!] Nexus of Desire
“An hour and a quarter later I turned the Fender off, unslung the axe, and knew I’d never sell the pair if I could help it. What’s more, I started thinking dangerously. Rock & roll will never die, you know, and neither will reggae if the Navajos have anything to say about it: there’s reggae on the rez now. I was listening to a Native music show today on a station out of Albuquerque and heard raw skankin’ thump that blew my mind. I mean, I just rolled the volume up and there it was, in all its glory. This is all so cool, I can hardly stand it, and anyone who wants me to feel bad can just go to hell.”

As long as I have your attention (?), I’ll also mention that I’m silly enough to advertise a Web Site Design Special at Zoopilot.com. The page isn’t up yet, but within the next 24 hours you’ll be able to access a project I’m running as an experiment, namely cheap, clean, fast Web sites (1-3 pages, w/photos) for only $300. I also want to see if there are enough artists, craftspeople, small businesses, and individuals out there who want fast, inexpensive, no-hassle service to make this feasible. I’ll even register the domains myself and set up hosting through Brownrice.com here in Taos. Brownrice offers unlimited email accounts, free newslists, and all sorts of extras for only $20/month, payable quarterly. This is a great deal for anyone who needs to hang a shingle up in cyberspace without a lot of worry or expense, and I’ll probably regret the discount price. This link will take you to Zoo Pilot Publishing now, but within a day you’ll see another option. Hurry up and order your cheapo site before I get famous:
What else? WHAT ELSE?! I’ll tell you what else: Bo Diddley is performing at the Lensic Theater in Santa Fe this Thursday and I’m gonna go. What if I freaking died before seeing Bo Diddley live and in the flesh? I’m almost broke but don’t tell Visa, which is also going to put gas in my F-150. Both tanks, by God.
