Since Arpanet, There Have Been Trolls

By BitcoDavid One of the subjects we’ve covered is the Boren-Thomas murders – the tragic death and dismemberment of a young woman and her infant child, by an estranged husband. This crime is a double ended disaster, because while we feel the pain and loss to the victim, we also suffer for the perpetrator, a

HEARD’s #DeafInPrison Campaign – Day 2

By BitcoDavid HEARD turned on the link to the Al Jazeera America video yesterday. Numerous people have screened it either through FaceBook, Organizations and private parties, or from my links, here.

My Ship, Out on the Horizon

By BitcoDavid Let me tell you a story. Years ago, when I had a business, building and repairing audio equipment for musicians and recording studios, I received a call.

“Felix Garcia” Music Video

By BitcoDavid It’s been nearly a month since I’ve posted anything. I’ve been working my – two baseballs in a sock – skinny, White butt off, on this video. As promised to you, back in January, we took Heather Hardy’s song and created this video. I even had to drive all the way to East

Famous Web Site Posts Exaggerated April Fools Story

By BitcoDavid But you already knew that, huh? What gave it away, the NY Yankees bit? Anyway, I just want to say that I’m shocked! Shocked I tell you! That DeafInPrison.com – the blog of record – would stoop to such antics! All I can say in my defense is, “I have no recollection of
