1   3AUG09 I'm a photographer working out of Dallas. My specialty is publicity pictures. I often get hired to do pictures and videos that get publicity for people and their missions. I do pictures of beginning models, headshots for actors, publicity headshots for those who have something to say or perform, pictures of products, CD covers, the list goes on. It was not until I started doing business over the Internet eight years ago that I started having the success that I that I now enjoy. Whether it's from my arrogance or peculiar slant, I'll be talking about what I see here.  
 

 
2   5AUG09 Yesterday was a day for the world, the United States, the Democrats, and humanity. Say what you will about Bill Clinton, but he stepped off the plane, a man exhalted by the nature of his mission, and he returned to the United States with the journalists. What a contrast with the birthers, the "Just say no" plants, the insurance lobbyists and their deathers. Yes, we not only can, we do.  
         
3   6AUG09 I will be recording a new CD, tentatively to be called The Parson's Daughter at SessionWorksStudios.com. One of the songs to be recorded will be Lucky Grin. Click here for a scratch track of one of the songs. If you've never bought the Kid, you can order it online here or from Amazon. Just search for Curt Newbury in the search bar.

  The Resort to Reason (After Everything Else Has Failed) Tour

6AUG09 Bill Maher, Matt Taibbi, and Rachel Maddow seem to be forming,
maybe without realizing it, a meeting of the minds, a sort of benevolent cabal.  Their
names seem to keep coming up together, one guesting on other's shows, all
seeming to be making the same intelligent case, each playing a different ax.

If I had to give it a name I'd call it the Resort to Reason Tour.

Who                           What each  brings to the table
Bill Maher                    Super satire and a venue that viewers see over and over
Real Time            

Matt Taibbi                  The hard hitting facts about what's really happening
Rolling Stone Magazine         

Rachel Maddow           Great communication skills and broad based likeability,
Rachel Maddow Show                         to me the best Cable News show.

20SEP09 The other day I saw on Rachel Maddowe (MSNBC) this guy who has that sort of tense Jerry Lee Lewis preacher look. Well groomed kind of crazy looking. He was on Rachel to hawk his book, Crazy for God. http://www.frankschaeffer.com/ In the midst of all this crazy stuff going on about Obama being a new age Ugandi witch doctor and death panel host and an almost total break-down in politesse at town hall meetings, it's so refreshing to see someone go back to his God-given sanity.
