I am having some very bad times. In fact, I am so flat broke! Meet me at 4750 N. Sheridan (1st floor, Chicago) today between 10am and 1:30 pm for some piano performing by me and help me raise funds for my own better Christmas, because inflation is worsening in my budget by the days! Thank you!

I think I have a new piano skill--hand doubling. Here I pretend to play the most difficult piano concerto's 1st movement of the Rach 3. (Leonard Pennario, pianist & Philharmonia Orch. under Walter Susskind). Hope I did my best.

I am having a very terrible day this weekend. I do not know what to do.

It is getting worse. ICE is hurting anybody in Chicago who messes with them. When will it be all over?

Very difficult to troll for friends on Bluesky! That is why some people swear by it.

My garage sale still continues at Decorators but due to worsening times for me it is upgraded to a liquidation/moving sale. Merch of mine needs to be cleared out by the end of the week.

3321 West Armitage Ave. (Chicago) Open every day except Tuesday.

Here is some of my merch.....

Good bye. No more protesting in downtown LA. Dispersal order enacted. Fireworks going off by flashbangs. No more No More Kings. Curfew is now in effect. There will likely be arrests.

The garage sale of Charles Joseph Smith is still on at 3321 W. Armitage Ave (Chicago). Lots of my stuff is still remaining but has to go. It likely will be a moving sale soon.

I would like more subscribers on my Substack platform. Ever since I started creating new content on the platform, I only gained two subscribers and that was not good enough to keepe more motivated to create more content. This screenshot below should help you.
