Out Of The Sky

Out Of The Sky

Well, at last a note since 3/2/07 — the author has been catatonic in the wash of culture, no doubt overwhelmed by the loss of Anna Nicole and angst over Britney. But for a tonic, I took a look at the website linked with this post. It's authored by David Clark, a radio commentator, author, story-teller, folk singer, and observer who sometimes travels the country and tells about it. Some of his writings appear as reporting of daily mundaneities, almost as frequent and seemingly insignificant as journals of personal encounters; then, after a spell, he'll put together many of his experiences to produce a series of essays with so much common sense that they upend our daily headlong rush. All of this is related from the view of a world-awareness based solidly in the soils of Middle Georgia, written with hands that do much of the work about which he writes. If you like what you read, he offers CDs and books, as well.
