    2018-07-09 Now Ain’t That Something Else!

    I typically stick to my own life and times here in this space, but there’s a fascinating development elsewhere that I can’t help but want to ponder and share. My caveat to the following is that it’s not a comparison or a contest. It’s the difference between apples and something that’s just bananas. I just…

  • 2018-07-07 He’s Not Wrong

  • 2018-07-01 Holy Shit, It’s July

    It should come as no surprise since 1.) Yesterday was June 30th and 2.) It’s felt like July for weeks now. I haven’t done any biking or tennis this year at all cuz it’s either too hot and humid or it’s pouring down rain. Is this Nebraska or some jungle deep in the heart of…

  • 2018-06-30 On Being Insignificant

    At the feedback reading I attended this week there was a point in the conversation where they were trying to transition the discussion from one writer to another and one of the moderators posed the question, “Why is it so difficult for people to open up and be vulnerable with their lives in their writing”.…
