Jericho
Jericho is a television show that premiered last fall on CBS. From the very first episode I have been hooked on it. It has amazing writing. I don’t know how the writers seem to keep escalating the drama and suspense every week. I am on the edge of my seat week after week and just […]

‘Tis the Season
I am in the process of writing a novel. The working title is 4 Wheels and a Piece of Maple. I thought I was nearly done it when I had an idea on how to format it last night. I looked back at the 150 pages I had written and came to an epiphany. It […]

You Can’t Do Anything You Want
We always tell our youth that they can do anything, that they can become anything they want to. Is this the right message to give them? It is a lie. We can’t do anything we want. I know from experience. I have failed at a lot of things that I have wanted to do. It […]

Save Net Radio
The future of Internet radio is in danger. I am not sure what I can do to save it, except announce why I value Internet radio and ask you to join me in my support of the “Internet Radio Equality Act,” introduced by Reps. Jay Inslee (D-Wash.) and Don Manzullo (R-Ill.). I tried to put […]

Words Spoken are not Premeditated
Have you ever been surprised by what you said? Of course—but that would be impossible if you knew in advance what you were going to say.This is a small quotation from Robert J. Sawyer’s Mindscan. I must say that I am really enjoying this book. It certainly has me thinking about a lot of things. […]

Intensity
A friend told me today that I can be intense and that it sometimes seems like I put across a “my way or the highway” attitude. As soon as he said it, I could see where he was coming from. I am intense. I do like things my way but I don’t play the “my […]
