Please visit my new Web site, tapper7.com
Any link posted to WordPress from Blogger will die upon publishing (you can try the above link but it may not work), Blogger/Blogspot is trying to stem the tide of bloggers who prefer the functionality, templates and scripting available by preventing blogspot users from promoting WordPress users...
Thankfully WP allows backlinks to Blogger. More important than my dumb archives is:
The memorial site dedicated to Dominique
where you can read about her last days in this world, find quicklinks to purchase her books on film and film history, plus a donation section. By visiting, commenting, purchasing a great book or leaving a donation...you are helping to support her two children. Her stepmom is a wonderful, smart and caring person who created this great site. You can also click on her profile to find her own personal blog, which is a great read. Jen is intelligent, informative and entertaining. It is no wonder they broke the stepmom-stepdaughter barrier and became friends.
Please support Dominique via the above link and either throw "Tapper7" into Google or copy www.tapper7.com into your browser window.
Much love, -ed

To Clarify, The Wasteland is no longer the repository of my brain waste....
So I decided to get back in the swing of things, artistically. I'm a shit writer so the only way to be even readable is to practice, for Chanukkah last year my cousin hooked me up with a .com on wordpress which is fucking rad and maybe one the best holiday gifts ever.
The trouble is that Blogspot, blogger, or whatever they call this thing is being OBS'd, so to fight back, I can't use Open ID to make secure comments on blogspot blogs..and that's a messed up way to fight back cuz then I have to give up my g+ in order to sign and post comments here....I certainly don't want to sign as The Wasteland, because this blog is an archive from my Cal Poly days...that was a decade ago! See if I sign as ......(hmm will they even allow me link the URL from here? or even type the letters? ...
Tapper7.com...art, music, design and editorial
Then I suppose that would be a backlink from blogger TO Wordpress, if you google how to sign as yourself on blogspot comments if youre using wordpress, all those forum topics are now closed ... they're going to end up in court over this shit! Obviously I immediately searched for a hack, but it's not that important so I wrote some javascript, blogger gave me some "unable to authenticate OpenID" bullshit so I gave up.
At the same time there is nothing to hide on my dumb g+, but I dont feel like giving it out to everyone, you know? I only signed up to do a favor for a fellow musician who asked me to review his latest vid on youtube, but as you prob know, no g+ ? no utoobe comment yo! so first I bitched, but he hassled me and I told him Ill sign up, but if your shit sucks I wont lie ... I can't ... He was trying script my comment so i explained that its an SPJ ethics violation which means if you ask me to be dishonest in print...bring a gun...cuz then you might have a chance. I'll rob a liquor store b4 I break rank in my own professional association.
Ill tell ya I love being a musician as well and my colleagues are OLD friends and most are light years beyond talented. but with that comes eccentricity...in HS we started more shit, fights, partied harder and did more dope than any other clique. Senior year I used to take a drop of acid almost every morning! hell, the only reason we don't kill each other is that, though many of us are prone to violence I am not aware of any musician in my circles that has actually committed a murder. Otherwise I'd have not lived past 17 or when my buddy asked me to hype his band knowing full well that for a Journalist that's a shred away from kid-touching...I wouldve just strangled him on the spot. (thats as many horrid felonies I can cram into one 'graph so let'/s move on).
If you are reading this at all...it means you are supposed to go to tapper7.com!!!! if you want fresh prose from the horses mouth? You gotta scope it out over there. I'm putting most of my energy into that one site...because the readership growth is unreal, and I dont spam, buy ads, plug it much, pay for some stupid seo or even the site...it's all a hack, even Google Analytics...I favored to figure out the jscript to make it run (it's only like 15 lines of code it took me one hour) otherwise it's 30 bucks a month...fuck YOU google.
Just take heed, if you do plan to scope out Tapper7.com be forewarned that I have been sparring with a gang of SEO spammers in the comments section and the language is gutteral and for sure NSFW. Anyway that's where the party is at so come on over, call me an asshole or a fucktard or something in the comments, and if youre a legit blogger/writer and want to really promote your site, send me an article - no topic is off-limits, but must meet min reqmt's for being informative, interesting, funny, and/or unique...your prose must have SOME redeeming quality to it, no worries about spelling structure or grammar i will edit your crappy prose before posting, but if I do, I'll credit you, your blog, your site, your twitter, whatever...no charge...all I would ask is that you return the favor...but in my case I would say...think of something you want to write about, but dont have time to do the research....Ill write the article for you, but under the headline you list my byline and post a link to MY site...see how that works? It's free and every participant wins, plus my guerilla blog marketing ideas also makes life worse for the SEO asshats....I'm proving that quality still sells itself, and every new reader I earn this way takes dirty money out of their pockets. Nice, huh? feel free to visit this archive or SLO Reports anytime, just know that 2014 exists on WP for my latest and greatest. These elephant graveyard blogs of mine still get 80-100 hits daily...I think some of readers enjoy the archives from time-to-time, but if any of you still don't know, plz join the other 1900 readers cuz we;re going to pop 2000 soon and I want you to be part of it.
Ok it kind of looks like youre working right now, so if the boss isnt looking you can go back to FB now. take care, -ed.
and btw the WP links I posted do not work. just google ot or enter tapper7.com into your browser window. blogger is like, losing their minds over this...I should back up all of this stuff b4 they just get sick of me and blow it up.
