“I want to swim in the river, I want to feel the current”-Mamah Borthwick.

“This book confronts deep questions concerning life, love, and the life of a Frank”-A.Fife

“A thoughtfull debut novel that pits morality against passion…..the perfect selection to jup-start some satisfyingly heated arguments within your book club”-USA Today

” Loving Frank reveals what we expect to get from great fiction: timeless truths about ourselves”-NY Daily News

Loving Frank, when I read it,  was more than just a another book about a Frank. It was an introspective look at myself, as a Frank. I had never compared myself with Frank Loyd Wright before, but this book put he and I, eye to eye…..as Franks. So there I was, a seeminly simple man….a field guy, strictly seasonal……..paired up with an architect of great beauty and fame. This book made me say to myself, “Self….let’s roll, I mean ya can’t but ya gotta”. In conclusion, Loving Franksatisfies the most demanding of literary senses, feelings, and emotions……read it with care. Rememer, the only Frank in you comes from deep inside.   -G. Connell

Yo no Soy Marinero.

If somebody pointed to Sr. Davies and I and asked who, or what, are they? “Caballeros” would be an appropriate response. You probably know what a caballo is (if not you might be one, and not the stallion kind). Caballero on the other hand is a less known Spanish word, originally meaning, “knight,” “guy who rides a horse,” or “sir.”

One can imagine that at some point in Latin America’s history, a horse rider was automatically given the sir (Senor) status. In Chile that time is long gone and standards have since been lowered, at least as of 2005 when I Iived there. Every where I went, other caballeros and non-caballeros, i.e. damas (meaning women, or lady of the night depending on the context), insisted that I was a caballero, despite my having had arrived on un bici, or el bus. Ask anyone who knew me in ’05 and they will tell you, “Creo que no.”

I recently moved to the West Coast. The large quantities of water that I found quickly made it apparent that it was time to up my status (by non-Chilean standards) to caballero. Don also works.

Yea that’s a bait chucker- so what?

Ya gotta

I’m Frank and I wear jorts.

After many summers of knocking around in jean shorts, I just discovered they had this disparaging nickname and are hopelessly out of style, assuming they were ever in style.  I thought everyone wore jean shorts. But look around. They don’t. I somehow never got the memo.

Apparently denim shorts are not timeless as much as I’m clueless. Lucky I don’t care that much.

People who go out in public in jean shorts or cutoffs run the risk of their hilarious photos showing up on sites like jorts.com or Facebook pages devoted to jorts or some snotty blog.

Jorts are the new mullets.  Urban Dictionary online defines jorts as “hideous attire” that are “often worn by the fashion illiterate” or by “people you will not like.”
