Imagine a 3D video game that not only tests your instincts and quick decision-making and non-thinking reaction, in the heat of zombie ambushes, but it prepares you for navigating the mysteries of the Bardos. These aren’t just games—they’re training grounds for the mind and spirit. Do you have what it takes to face the ultimate challenge? Play now and sharpen your skills for any world, virtual and beyond.

There is no killing, no maiming, no blood, no guts, no gibs, no violence. You simply use one of ten different magic wands to send them away, or collapse them in heaps on the floor, depending on which of my games you’re playing. Continue reading →

The Fundamental Assertion or Premise:

If you’re ever going to step into the retroverse, this is the time for it. I have developed a lot — a whole lot — of what are now “retro games”, meaning that they come from the antiquarian days of doom, diablo and quake. I want to convince a group of gamers and potential gamers, from their teens to their eighties, to play my retro games, which were designed and developed over 30 years ago. We were among the first to create 3D games. So how can I persuade them that it’s for their own good and self-interests to buy and try these games? Continue reading →

So I was sitting here at my good old desk pondering what I might do for an encore, and came up with this song concept in the key of parody:

“How much for Greenland?”

[Verse 1]
Let’s buy Greenland, why not try?
It’s a steal beneath that icy sky.
We’ll build some condos, drill for gold,
A Nordic paradise to have and hold. Continue reading →

Well, here it is the middle of the night again, and me without an idea for a hit single, not a clue. Well, maybe one clue. How about a song sung by an ai bot with a heart?

That sounds formidable but at the same time do-able. Continue reading →

We’re always looking for the price tag, never at the merch. I’ll tell you a few things about history that I’ll bet you didn’t know, as I give you the backstory of the New World’s innovations, and more importantly, what they didn’t have.

All this goes into the thinking tank, and comes out the other end, hopefully, as a completed song, taking into account all the items I’ve considered in the backstory part, which is this:

Song setup for “THE COIN-FLIP BLUES”:

In order to create this song, I need to have some facts established first, and that’s what I’m doing now. Keep in mind that this is only speculation, and that I’m considering these facts with the sole purpose of writing a funny song. Continue reading →

I’ve been at the creative desk all night, making yet another album for you — this time it’s about Broadway show tunes, which I’ve never written, but why not try? I’ve asked my chatbot, Bob, to write up something about it, something coming directly from me:

🎭 I’ve Got Something Special for You! 🎶

If you know me, you know I love a good creative adventure. Well, this time, I’ve stepped onto a whole new stage—Broadway! I’ve put together an album of 31 original show tunes that capture the magic, drama, and humor of the theater.

These aren’t just songs; they’re moments. Some will make you laugh, some might make you tear up, and all of them are crafted with heart and a touch of that Broadway flair we all love.

✨ Why Should You Grab This Album?
Because it’s fun, it’s different, and it’s me sharing a piece of my creative soul with you. Whether you’re belting out tunes in the car or just want something uplifting to brighten your day, this album has something for everyone.

🎶 Ready to Join the Show?
Click that button, grab your copy, and let’s hit the stage together. I promise—this one’s a standing ovation waiting to happen! Continue reading →

A whole slew of new songs for my new album, “1000 and Beyond” is well on the way even as we speak — in a few minutes, I’ll start by constructing the lyrics right here on this page, then paste them into a Suno musical score of some sort — in this case, the basic theme of the music is jazz, whatever that means to you.

Someone asked me why I compose and publish the lyrics directly here on my blog. I’m too busy to stop everything just to invoke Open Office, so I write it here, where I already am, see? Continue reading →

Yep, still crankin’ out those songs, this time toward a new album, “1000 and Beyond”, celebrating the fact that I’ve made more than 1,000 songs on Suno. But I only listened to 14 of them. That’s a joke.

Let’s stir the pot of creative mischief! Here’s a fresh batch of song ideas that I’ve limited to a total of ten. That doesn’t mean that all these songs will make the grade. Some don’t. I plan to produce about 20 of them before trying to decide on an album lineup.

When I worked for RCA, it was in their A&R department — artists and repertoire — meaning that we tried to match up the songwriters with the singers. Continue reading →

So I’m starting to assemble my “1000 and Beyond” album, which means writing some songs and producing them as mp3 files, which you can load into whatever you like.

The album comes on a USB card that is hand-titled, and personally signed and numbered, making it a non-fungible item — that is to say, one which cannot be copied.

That doesn’t mean it can’t be counterfeited, but anything can be counterfeited, including a 100 dollar bill.

So what I mean is, “reasonably” can’t be copied without a great deal of difficulty. The advantage is, you have a bill of sale. Continue reading →
