Song of the day - 137: Isaac Snazell Thackray

Indulge me here. I'm a dad, and this is Isaac's first recorded song.

Song of the day - 127: The Thin Kids

Song of the day - 96: Patrik Fitzgerald

Conducted by Dan Condon for Time Off Media. (This is the unexpurgated version.)

So this happened.

Hugs And Kisses (December edition)

This was written for Spanish website Playground a couple of days ago. I dutifully sent it off, and received a return email stating the column had been pulled, financial considerations. Damn. They could have told me that before I wrote it! Anyway. Thought it was too good to waste.
