We’ve all grown up knowing what a barbeque is. Some are as simple as a small round unit with little brickettes, and some are full blown units roasting full pigs and more. There are as many different ways to barbeque as there are opinions. But just as a certain way of deliciously grilling all ofContinue reading “Barbeque BS”

Waiting For the World to Change
There’s a song about this title. I keep waiting, waiting for the world to change. I’m in my 50’s and have seen a tremendous amount of change in the world. I remember getting our first microwave. I remember pagers and the first gigantic car phones. I remember dial up, those old enough can hear thatContinue reading “Waiting For the World to Change”
You Can’t Talk Butterfly to Caterpillar People
It’s easy in a hip response to say, “but hey caterpillars are butterflies”. But they are not. And not all caterpillars turn into butterflies. Some caterpillars are destined to become moths and that’s a whole other topic. Some caterpillars don’t get enough food and therefore never have the chance to become a butterfly. But theContinue reading “You Can’t Talk Butterfly to Caterpillar People”
Ketchup Or No Ketchup
I use the platform TikTok, and I recently came across a post of “a friend” asking if we put ketchup on tacos. Most of the comments were, “ewwwe, that’s gross”, “no way would I ever do that”, “that’s just wrong”. Well, my response was, well yes, I do, I have since I was a kid.Continue reading “Ketchup Or No Ketchup”
Which Way is Up
Sometimes I think out loud, sometimes I think too much, sometimes I think silly, sometimes I think that I just don’t know what to think. I personally live in a bubble right now. I get up, go to work, eat, sleep, go to work, pay bills, and on occasion socialize. But here’s the thing. IContinue reading “Which Way is Up”
Snowflake
I live in a 4-season state. We’re almost coming into fall weather which is a nice reprieve from the summer heat. It’s beautiful when all the colors change, and we all start to get our dens ready for the long winter months. But on that note, I don’t like winter. I don’t like winter oneContinue reading “Snowflake”
Punching The Time Clock
How long have we been doing this? For myself, since I was 14. I have used all sorts of timeclocks. I have used timecards that had the time punched out on its little slot. I have used stamp timeclocks in the same manner. I have used a keypad to code myself in and out. IContinue reading “Punching The Time Clock”
Age Is Not Just a Number
We’ve all heard the saying right? Age is just a number. It’s about how one views themselves. It’s about how we take care of ourselves. Ummmm, no it’s not. Recently there was a man in his 70s who was a very fit person, did video tapes about being fit most of his adult life andContinue reading “Age Is Not Just a Number”
True Colors
Well, well, well, if there aren’t some things going on in this day and age, sheesh. But all this and all that and everything else still boils down to people. It doesn’t matter what size, shape, color, sex, rich or poor, people are still people. Many years ago, I wrote a letter to the EditorContinue reading “True Colors”
It’s Just Me
This is my 100th blog, well sort of. I’ve done many more previously but deleted them due to the current content taking a different direction. If you all have been with me since the beginning, you may recall that I was going to travel in my van across country and live the journey. I wasContinue reading “It’s Just Me”
