Big Chuck
Raves for Big Chuck
Out of focus, out of touch
Much ado 'bout nothing much.
--Connie Flange, masseuse nonpareil
Lights up your life like a cold salami.
--Gary Dildero
Author of Shoes for House Pets and
What She Needs Is a Good Rhinoceros
Low-brow, degenerate pap.
--Daniel Fresnik, agent provocateur
Big Chuck's blog is a window into his soul, only the glass is really dirty.
--Edwina "Mom" Schmutz
President, Windex Corp.
Chuck’s groundbreaking achievement is the integration of deep philosophical ignorance with an astonishing lack of photographic skill.
--Edward T. Rucker, PhD.
Big Chuck is big, but he's no Mencken.
--Howie Berg
New Journal for Outsourced Public Education
What’s all the fuss?
--Robert Wince, Weltschmerz
Chuck puts the blog back in blogging. A photo-literary tour de France, rich in pretension.
--Mike Harris, Digitalis News
Consistently inconsistent. Big Chuck’s commentaries run the gamut from silly to embarrassing.

that's the long way round.
vonnegut said it best: life's for farting, and, when ambitious, farting around.
thanks for photo and remembrance of The Mother. it's been a long winter. i could've used her presence.
Chucky,
I suppose the irony is that whilst composing this admittedly thought provoking ditty, you could have been twiddling your mangled thumb, or perhaps twiddling your diddly-doo.

That photo and essay seemed like they could be included in that scary, german fairytale book you had as a kid. You know what I'm talking about. That book had tons of cautionary stories in it. For example, if you pick your nose, a little man will cut your fingers off with a huge pair of scissors. Well, that's how I remember it. NOW, if you twiddle too much, your thumbs will explode into stitches. Gross.
Hey! Isn't that Dave Malmquist's thumb, a.k.a., "The Commish"?
Read "Turning the Mind into an Ally" by Sakyong Mipham. He'll teach you how to twiddle but it ain't easy. In fact its almost like work learning how to twiddle and "be in the moment". Arghhhhhhh I hate that expression, can't do it. I agree with Bill and Kurt, I'm a champion farter arounder.
