Might be another stream of thought sort of night. I’m really looking forward to starting the new season of “Game of Thrones”, but I want to go back through the 6th season one more time before diving into season 7. Man, I seem to have missed a lot of the arcs from season 6. I’m …

I have always had a fascination with humor. I remember reading a book in college about humor from a scientific and philosophical perspective. Exaggeration, absurdity, ludicrous, schadenfreude. Likely a few other things that I can’t recall at the time. Tonight, I watched an episode of the CNN series, “The History of Comedy”, and this particular …

Tonight, an exercise in getting to two hundred words in a short amount of time. Somewhere, in a parallel dimension, another version of me has written something a whole lot more meaningful that will change the way others see the world. Not in this dimensional instance. Got up early, did some yard work. Took care …

I get a little tired of the “shaming”. This all pretty much started when men started thinking with their dicks. God knows I went through enough years doing way too much thinking with mine. Today, it seems so many men, women, PEOPLE, obsess over the shape, look, style of another person’s visage. GET OVER IT! Whether or …

I need to do a better job taking notes throughout the course of the day. It happens to me every day. I get an idea. And I forget to write it down. I remember having the idea. I think back now and I remember thinking to myself that whatever it was I had on my …

Today was one of those days that remind me that attitude can mean so much. I posted yesterday that I didn’t have a great day and that today I was going to get my head focused in the right direction, and I adapted to the day, and it helped. Things went better today. There were …

Some days are highs, some days are lows. I think it’s best to make the most of the highs, gather in the memories, and make them last as long as possible. When the lows happen, and we all know that lows happen, it’s important to make sure those lows don’t drag you too far down. …

First day back in the classroom in a few weeks. I gotta tell ya, I need to quit sleeping in during prep weeks. It’s easy to get spoiled, not having to get up, get going, and hit the road by 6:30 or thereabouts in order to get to Leawood ahead of the traffic. Last night …

One of the interesting measurements that WordPress makes is this moving target attribute referred to as “readability”. I think the idea of readability is an interesting concept. Everything I write is pretty simple, really. I use only one language, the American dialect of English. That part should keep my readability score fairly easy to manage. I …

Yesterday was not my best day. I made a rash decision after hearing about the passing of a friend. Car died, got towed, stayed in a cheap motel, picked up a rental car, drove home. I think sometime’s God sends me messages. The message from yesterday was probably, “Next time, just stay home”. Seriously. Car repairs …
