Some of the cohorts I posted here I didn't really mix up at all at the time of posting but now upon re-reading I do mix them up. Feel like either the very act of posting somehow upset some delicate equilibrium or maybe I knew that eventually time's arrow and fortune's wheel would grind me down so that I would mix them up.

John Milius and Walter Hill. I say one, I mean the other. AND I KNOW WHO THEY ARE. It's so dumb.

Charleston / Charlotte

I constantly mix up Charleston, SC and Savannah, GA. Both being moderate-sized, exceptionally pretty, colonial era, coastal Southern cities with more good restaurants than their size would warrant.

I took this grainy photo of my son in the streetlight and it came out all green. The pose kinda looked like Joni Mitchell's on the cover of Blue, so of course I made the pun based on Kind of Blue by Miles Davis.

Lucky I guess I didn't call it Some Kind of Green.
