Jeremy joins The Chasers on stage at the Galway Bay Irish Pub.

Jeremy and Star made the trip from Spokane to see me this past weekend. We had a great time recording music, exploring dive bars [...]

Reporter and layout job opening

The Daily World has a job opening for a part-time reporter, part-time page designer.
Sounds like they’re going to be a little picky, so you’d need writing, reporting and InDesign experience — most likely with another newspaper. But if anyone is interested it, you better jump on it.
They’ve started narrowing candidates, but are still [...]

Meet Jeffrey Bratcher, 7, of Texas. Disappeared June 15, 1974.
This story started as a short news release about some forgotten skeletal remains that had been discovered and shipped to the Grays Harbor Sheriff’s Office.
It seemed like the story deserved better. So I did a little more digging and finally found the time to finish this [...]

As the haze of Guinness clears from my brain, I figured I post a few shots from the St. Patrick’s Day parade in Ocean Shores. Mike and I took the stage shortly afterward and had a great time. We played again last night. Enjoy the photos.

If you’re going to log underwater on national TV, make sure you have permits. Otherwise the state will seize your stuff. See today’s paper.

Meet Gerald Kang, 64, of Hoquiam.
Convicted on child pornography charges Wednesday. Police found thousands of photos and videos. Kang said he used the photos for research.
He later asked me if I worked for the paper. I told him yes. He asked if I wrote the previous story about him. Yes.
“I didn’t like that story too [...]

The Harbor Art Guild has been hosting some poetry readings, so I went to one.
Turnout was a little light, but I managed to scare up a story.
The publisher said he enjoyed the story. And he usually wouldn’t spend much time on a story about reading poetry. So I took it as a pretty decent [...]
