Terri Nunn and Taylor Dayne Didn’t Betray Us

Posted On January 11, 2021

I sometimes forget I’m not a 15-year-old-boy, mostly when I’m listening to music from the years when I was that age. Or, perhaps, I feel like I’m that age even when I’m listening to an artist from those years who’s continued to release new music. Their voice always takes me back. Fondly. And I have […]

Welcome To Luxury Hospital! (Tales From A Frontline Worker)

Posted On January 7, 2021

Might you be one of those folks who walks into a McDonald’s, expects to order a succulent lobster sandwich and glass of vintage wine to wash it down with? I’m hoping you mumbled “Uh, no.” Why? Because you know what you go to a restaurant like that for. And might you be the kind of […]

Connections To The Curse Of Loss

Posted On December 14, 2020

One thing the holiday season isn’t short of is memories. My brain does this funny little thing of leaping and bounding from one topic to the next, all while somehow making connections that probably shouldn’t be there. I was thinking recently of some of the people no longer here who I greatly miss in this […]

The Little Unholy Terror Known As…Snowflake

Posted On December 10, 2020

I grew up with dogs. My first one was a Siberian Husky named Tashka. She had two blue eyes, was incredibly loving, and had a very playful personality, perfect for little 5-year-old me. Our second dog was another Siberian Husky, this one named Kira. Unlike Taskha, Kira was hell on four paws, prompting us to […]

The Signal And The Noise

Posted On November 16, 2020

November 9th marked the 5th year of my father’s passing. I don’t know if it’s a blessing things have been so absolutely ridiculous at the hospital that I glossed over it until today, or if I feel guilty about it. Regardless, I didn’t want it to go unmarked. It would perhaps have been impossible to […]

The Day I Was Called A Racist: A Front Line Healthcare Worker Perspective

Posted On November 5, 2020

My childhood was rooted in the 1970s, though my teen years, taste in music, and horror movies clearly took place and developed in the 1980s. I can’t say I grew up in a particularly diverse population in our small city. I remember a single African American student in my graduating class, and one Asian. Not […]

A Physical Manifestation Of Pain

Posted On November 2, 2020

Is it me, or do things hurt worse and cut much deeper as an adult than they did when we were children? I wonder if it has to do with our years of experience. The longer we’re alive, the more change messes with us, and we therefore feel losses so much more than if we […]

Don’t Put Me At Risk: A Front Line Healthcare Worker Perspective

Posted On October 29, 2020

A friend and co-worker approached someone a couple weeks ago who walked in the entrance of the hospital. It was early, probably before 5:30a.m., and this particular individual wasn’t wearing a mask. My co-worker walked up and politely told this person, as we are required to do, “Excuse me, but you need to wear a […]

It’s Seriously Been Over A Year Since I Wrote A Blog Post

Posted On October 26, 2020

I had the opportunity today to load some of the blog posts I was able to recover from my former site. I lost more than I care to admit. Many, many more. But, the ones I recovered will be posted over the coming weeks. I added several today, then realized I haven’t written a new […]

A Year Since Mom’s Passing

Posted On October 13, 2020

I knew a guy whose mother passed away when we were still in high school. We were never friends per se, but we’d gone to grade school together and knew of each other. I remember thinking how awful for him, and I couldn’t fathom losing either of my parents at that age. People do, though, […]

Meet Kristoffer

Michigan-based author Kristoffer Gair wrote his first puppet play in 1st Grade and continued writing in one form or another from that point on. Much of it was crap, but there were tiny nuggets of potential mixed in with the likes of Pickle Pony Gets A Puzzle. He spent three of his years at Fraser High School performing in plays, then attended Grand Valley State University where he graduated with degrees in Film & Video and Creative Writing.
