Strains from the CD “Poet: A Tribute To Townes Van Zandt” eased through Mark “Tiger” Edmonds’ front door. As usual, the retired English professor was halfway through a rant about technology.
Somewhere in the flurry of sour syllables came these four: “tech-no-glyph-ic.”
If that’s not a word, it should be. And if you’ve listened to any of the preceding Pithy Pasco Reflections, you know exactly what it means.
Faster than Johnny Cash can list cities in his well-known cover of “I’ve Been Everywhere,” Edmonds was talking about a man he once knew called “Special Ed.”
That’s about all we can say about Ed, unfortunately.
In fact, lots of what Edmonds says is unprintable.
And refreshing, to some.
The author of several books, including “Longrider,” “The Ghost of Scootertrash Past” and “Hard Scrabble,” Edmonds also pens and reads “The Curmudgeon Chronicles” on an Orlando radio station every weekend. He probably knows the call letters by now, but I forgot to ask him this week.
