It’s just a game, you’re in it all the way
It’s just a game, don’t let yourself slip away
It’s such a shame, I heard somebody say
It’s just a game, and all I can do…is play
- Rik Emmett, from Triumph’s “Just a Game” (title track)
In August 2010 a strange experience sent me briefly into a bizarre world of movement, light and lack of form. It didn’t last long, but I emerged with an odd book called Quantum Life: A User’s Guide, written in English, a Quantum Life language. I’m posting it to my blog, and over the course of a few months hope to complete it. This page will contain links to all the entries.

Hey, a Rik Emmett quote! Triumph was the first band I had ever seen live as a kid! With the exception of one guy from Louisiana that I met at a Cowboys game, i never thought they made it out of Canada.
Will check out the “Quantum Stuff” a little more, but in the meantime, very cool!

I’m not sure if the quantum stuff is going anywhere. It’s an attempt at quasi-spiritual fiction.
I’ve always been a big Triumph and later Rik Emmett in his solo career fan. Triumph was pretty big in South Dakota where I grew up.
