A friend of mine, the estimable Erich Veith, came by my home a bit over a year ago and we recorded a long interview. Erich has finally gotten around to editing it and has begun posting segments on YouTube. Here’s the first one. (I still haven’t figured out how to embed videos here, so bear with me.)
Erich runs the website Dangerous Intersection, where I post opinionated blatherings from time to time and Erich graciously allows me to hold forth in my own idiosyncratic manner. Why he thought people would also enjoy watching and hearing me as well, I can’t say, but I enjoyed the process and from the looks of the first three (which are up at Dangerous Intersection) I don’t think I came off too badly.
The one thing that has puzzled me about Erich these past few years is, where does he find the time to do what he does? I mean, he’s a lawyer, for one thing. He has two daughters his wife and he are raising. He’s a musician who occasionally gigs. And he runs this website, which is quite large and has a lot of traffic, and would seem to me to be just a lot of damn work. If you haven’t spent some time there, do. In my experience it’s unique and I’ve enjoyed being a small part of it.
My thanks to Erich for the opportunity to play at celebrity just a wee bit. I hope others enjoy the results.
