    Remembering the poet and the man
    Remembering the poet and the man
    January 17, 2007 8:00 pm

    The late William Stafford is revered as a poet who had both feet firmly planted on the ground.
    “He didn’t distinguish between poetry and the way he lived his life,” Neil Baker, of Bainbridge Island, said.
    Part of that grounding came from his Kansan roots, a formative time when he learned that “everywhere we looked the land would hold us up.”

    If you are of a certain generation, say one with the word “boom” often attached, you may fondly remember playing cowboys and Indians when Roy Rogers was an icon and scratchy music came from a large, round, black vinyl disk.

    Hot jazz heats up winter weekend

    Gypsy jazz quintet Pearl Django returns to the Collective Visions Gallery this weekend for two shows. The gallery setting is a change from the type of venues the Seattle-based group often plays, but violinist Michael Gray said that’s a good thing.
    “It’s a great spot to play,” Gray said. “We love the small venues. Playing for 10,000 people, which we do, can be daunting. In a small room you can really look everyone in the eye. It’s like a big house concert.”

    The red and green M&M bowl is empty. Nothing but crumbs are left in the shortbread tin. Even the fruitcake is finally nibbled down to the last petrified cherry. January is the cruelest month.
    Here and there you see people still displaying their Christmas lights, struggling to stave off the darkness that they know awaits without them, but for the most part the decorations have been packed away for another year.

    Woodworker Ken Savage just wanted to make one guitar. Just one, for his own personal use and enjoyment. One with a better tonal quality than he could find in mass produced guitars. One, perfect guitar. Yeah, right. A woodworker making one guitar is like a chocolatier making one truffle.
