I really need to listen more carefully to my friends. When I  made the rash decision to change the name of the blog I received an email from my friend Callie with this bit of advice:
 
“Winding Down is kind of like Old and in the Way; I’m an old dude and my life is spiraling downward, but I’m still doing stuff. 
Now.  Step back and be a reader.  Which would you choose to check out?  A guy who’s doing things he thinks are strange/interesting or a desperado waitin’ for a train?  The desperado’s in there, no doubt, as it is in all of us, but why call it out into the open? “
 

How can I argue with that type of logic? My Strange Life has been restored as the rightful title of this website. Callie even provided lyrics for an unwritten song which needs a melody and more verses.

Don’t like the name I chose today
but it’s my blog anyway
I can change the name every day
Till I get it right
 
If you’re not likin’ what you read
there’s a key it says ‘delete’
Click it right into “Trash”
It won’t put up a fight
 
The Universe I do believe
got somethin’ better up its sleeve
Cause if you got no name
You can be anyone at all

  1. Yes when I saw your Blog name I have to admit it sounded sort of depressing to me, especially for someone like with so much life in him. I like the new name, good choice. 👌
