Brain Farts was a weekly humor column that ran in the Louisville Eccentric Observer from mid-2000 until the summer of 2002. It was, well, eccentric. And occasionally satirical. And sardonic. Some liked it, some hated it; some just didn't get it, and that's OK. There were times when I didn't get it either. I've compiled here some of the archives from Brain Farts for the enjoyment of friends, family and anyone else who happens by. I also have written some new Brain Farts, and added some links and other trivialities that you shouldn't be too concerned with.

Unless you're as bored as I am.

 

 

A few years back, I released a book of short stories titled Funeral For a Friend. I still have a few, if you'd like to check it out. It originally retailed for $8.95, but if you want one enough to make the effort, it's yours for just $5 plus $1.50 S&H. (How f@#king cool is that?) Anyway, it's chock full of stories filled with corpses and people in all manner of emotional disarray. It also includes the story that won the 1996 Hoosier Collegiate Press Association award for best short story, and later became a full-length novel (which is not yet published).

ABOUT THE BOOK:



Inside this book, readers will meet an elderly man nimbly evading death ... for a while; a boy trying to understand God's intentions regarding mortality; a murderer who considers himself a victim of circumstance (not to mention the victim of a bad influence); a crossing guard haunted by one very special little girl; a family man with no family -- at least not living; a young man who exorcises his personal demons in his own unique way; a divorced father literally drowning in his own guilt and depression; and a well-meaning boyfriend who is perhaps a bit TOO devoted to his lost love.

"Turn down the lights and these stories will make readers shudder. But more importantly, they'll make readers think."

--Ben Schneider, New Albany (Ind.) Tribune
