Where has common sense gone? On my last post, I talked about it being thrown out the window. I have purposely stayed away from politics and the like in my posts. I have tried to make subtle hints but, in this post, I am not going to be silent. According to the constitution, that “someone”Continue reading “Upside Down”

True Colors
The world is made up of so many variances of color. I’m amazed at how many Crayola Crayons there are. Sunsets, rainbows, oceans, mountains, flowers, the list goes on and on. Everywhere a person looks there is color. Lush green grass across the open expanse in the park or soft white snow blanketing the countrysideContinue reading “True Colors”
Simon Says
Most people know this game. I even had the electronic version; remember the four colors we had to memorize and match or get zonked. I can’t articulate that sound, but you can hear it in your own head. What is the premise for Simon says? Who is Simon? And why do we have to doContinue reading “Simon Says”
Mirror Mirror on the Wall
Most of know what this is a reference to. A fairly calm, safe, innocent part of our childhood upbringing. There are always exceptions, but fairy tales and bedtime stories have been around for hundreds if not thousands of years. But with this story, I’m going to put my own spin on it. In the storyContinue reading “Mirror Mirror on the Wall”
Ignorance is Bliss
We have all heard this saying before. Here is the synapsis; The phrase “Ignorance is bliss” is an idiomatic expression that suggests not knowing about certain things can make a person happier because they are unaware of problems or unpleasant facts. Well, I am here to say ignorance is not bliss. Ignorance is just ignorance and it’s justContinue reading “Ignorance is Bliss”
Are You Stupid on Purpose
Look, we all do stupid things in our lives. I once crawled up the catwalk underneath the Prine Bridge outside of Twin Falls, Idaho. 1500 feet up with nothing but cables to hold on to, a slip, and a fall to the water below, a certain death. Was I being stupid on purpose? Absolutely. WhyContinue reading “Are You Stupid on Purpose”
What a Species
We are a young species especially in the confines of being Homo Sapiens. Hominoids have been around for millions of years whereas homo sapiens have been around for 200 to 300 thousand years. Through science nor religion can the existence of hominoids be truly explained. There are educated guesses, there is scientific knowledge and thereContinue reading “What a Species”
In Just a Minute
How many minutes are in a day? There are 1440 of them. How many minutes in a week? How about 10,080. Seems like a lot of minutes doesn’t it. How many minutes do we waste on dumb, insignificant stuff that has no real meaning or bearing in our lives. I’d say millions. And yet weContinue reading “In Just a Minute”
It ‘s All Subjective
So much of life is truly subjective. We believe things are truth and fact based on many factors. Those factors can include age, sex, religion, where you were raised and taught geographically in the world or within the United States. We are extremely diverse with opinions and matter of fact thinking within our own mindsContinue reading “It ‘s All Subjective”
Imprisoned Houses
We as individual people have become imprisoned in our own lives. The internet has been a big part of the undoing of the processes that kept us healthy and alive. As children we played outside, we got dirty, we got skinned knees, we drank from the hose and jumped our bikes off rickety made woodContinue reading “Imprisoned Houses”
