image001  I once had this dream in which I was the Broomfield/Theroux figure in a Documentary of the aforementioned title, accompanying David Berman as he walked into intimidating wilderness, a terrain which while barren, still – as he made pains to point out to me,“…has the odd barn casting a shadow the color of dried-up blood”.

A squashed can of compressed veal. A soggy copy of Playboy, singed around the centerfold’s midriff.

“Why would anyone want to set fire to the image of a naked cowgirl?” I asked rhetorically.

“American Dream” by LCD Soundsystem

And just like that, I’m 40 years old.

Now, I’m not one of those people that’s terrified of getting older, panicking as the sand grains fall faster and faster through the hourglass.  I don’t feel a midlife crisis coming on.  There are no convertible sportscars or barely legal mistresses or fad drug addictions in my immediate future.  But there is still something almost mythically daunting about that number.  And I don’t really know why.

“Staying Alive” by Cursive

I have started and stopped and started and stopped writing this article about a dozen times now, mind blank and an unending stream of words erased parading in front of my eyeballs.  I start from one angle, then abandon it and begin again from another only to abandon it as well.  I change my song choice.  Start over.  Come back at it again.  Start over.  Change the song again.  Start over.  Come back to the original song.  Blank.  Blank.  Blank.

“Midnight Cowboy” by John Barry

This week’s tune for my soon to be concluding column is “Midnight Cowboy,” John Barry’s theme song from John Schlesinger’s 1969 film.  The following story has absolutely nothing to do with it.
