Kiloh Smith "Broken Windows" Gone From Baltimore

 No more "Broken Windows" Theory, at least in Baltimore, yaaaaaaaay! For those who don't know "Broken Windows" it is a theory, put forth as truth, by American Law Enforcement. It's similar to the discredited "Domino Theory" by American anti-Communists during the last Century. The "Domino Theory" stated that, if we let one country "fall" to Communism, more would follow like dominos toppling over in a line.

"Broken Windows" states that, if the police don't aggressively arrest for small crimes; like breaking windows, the rule of law would tumble and society would fall apart. Another interpretation of "Broken Windows" is that the police need to aggressively enforce the small crimes in the "dark" neighborhoods, or then crime would "spill over" into the white neighborhoods.

"Broken Windows" is a big reason that we are where we are today; an over-policed society where crime is prevalent. The "Domino Theory" is a big reason why we are now a broke, over militarized, society today.

Kiloh Smith Runs World's Oldest & Best Syd Barrett Fan Group

Image
For the last 23 years, Kiloh Smith has run the world's largest, oldest and best Syd Barrett fan group. The group is known as the Laughing Madcaps and can be located by clicking this picture of Syd Barrett: This group has been responsible for many, momentous, things, in the Syd Universe, over the years. We started the amazing Have You Got It Yet? set about twenty years ago. This collected all of the unreleased Syd material into one collection; no more having to obtain a gazillion bootlegs. There has been a LOT written about it. Read some of it by clicking the picture below: That fans have the Pink Floyd, Early Years, box set is primarily due to HYGIY? The suits at EMI saw this thing being traded around freely and made their own iteration of it.  We are now working on Ver. 3.0 of HYGIY? This is going to be the be all / end all for fans of unreleased Syd. We've had some people come and go. We lost our beloved Moderator, Victor, to cancer a few years ago. Boy do we miss him. Get t

Kiloh Smith & Anne Daniels at Soggy Peso in San Carlos, Mexico

Here's a video of Kiloh Smith and Anne Daniels at the Soggy Peso in San Carlos, Mexico. San Carlos is right on the Gulf of Baja and is idyllic. The beaches are miles and miles long of white sand. The water is clear and green. We go to San Carlos as much as we can. The ride is approximately 400 miles but is very interesting; mostly through the Mexican State of Sonora. The food is amazing too, the freshest seafood you ever saw. These were some breakfast shrimp tacos right at the beach.

Kiloh Smith's BBQing Adventure

Image
We recently purchased a more robust smoker. Kiloh Smith & Anne Daniels just LOVE smoked meats & fish. The old, box, smoker was at the very, very end of life with Kiloh having to patch the bottom with scrap sheet metal. His wife, Anne, said to "Get rid of that *ghetto* smoker!" Here it is pictured and one can see that it truly was a *ghetto* smoker. BUT, it had provided years and years of good service and worked well still. As you can see, this smoker was beyond needing some TLC. I had to prop the door shut with a shovel. But there it is, working for us still. Anne didn't like how it looked and was concerned about people coming over and seeing it. My thought were; if they can't handle a *ghetto* smoker then screw 'em. That smoked mozzarella cheese, that the white suburbanites couldn't get enough of, was probably smoked in a garbage can with cut up New York Daily News strips as the combustion. This was told to me by my old friend, and actual Italian deli
