Loose CanonKit Hayden is from away, having moved to Maine from Wisconsin thirteen years ago to escape the liberals. Advancing age has brought increasing bewilderment over the activities of fellow planet-dwellers. Partial relief has been obtained by venting in blogs, most recently with mainecoastnow. Further relief has come from the adoption of Buddhism, which occasionally pops up in his writing. Rest assured, however, that nothing matters. It’s hopeless. Accept that. chaoscmh@gmail.com
