Time to throw a few quick words on the page, with the goal of satisfying my writing commitment for the day. Get this thing wrapped up before my wife wakes up… she slumbers gently on the couch after a long day, which included shots for our baby girl, Freya. I have a feeling Freya will not …

Day 19,608
It’s rather bizarre when people question your patriotism. I’m rather proud to be an American. I may not be as overt about it as some others I know, but I know where I was born, I know where I was raised, and how I was raised, and I believe I was born in one of …

Day 19,607
It’s a Monday here in Leawood, and I’m wrapping up the first day of my Unified Communications class. As I open up my console, I’m surprised to notice the number of failed login attempts. It’s quite a surprise, as I guess my blog has become quite the target for those with malicious intent. Over sixteen …

Day 19,606
I’m beginning to understand why the first ten amendments to the Constitution are presented in the order in which they are. The First Amendment: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the …

Day 19,605
There’s an old expression that goes, “Never get into an argument with an idiot. They’ll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience”. Let me tell you, folks, the Dunning-Kruger effect is in full bloom in the United States these days. For those that don’t know, DKE, is, at its most basic form, the …

Day 19,604
Dammit, dammit, dammit! I got caught up with personal stuff yesterday, wrapping up my class, taking care of bills, doing my side gig, and taking care of the family. I didn’t post. I’m rather angry with myself right now. It was late when I got home from the peripheral stuff, and it just slipped my …

Day 19,603
I was reading a little bit about Trump’s background, and one aspect of him that stands out rather prominently is his avoidance of alcohol. Wine was good enough for Jesus. Apparently, for the Cheeto Messiah, he’s waiting for something better. So, my recommendation to Trump is that he start drinking. It will give him not …

Day 19,602
Today is a day of historical significance. It’s a little bit on the surreal side, to tell you the truth. Today the Department of Justice appointed a special investigator to look into the affairs of Donald J. Trump. Man… this is huge. I came home, flipped on CNN, and called my kids over to watch. …

Day 19,601
It’s the 16th day of May, in the year 2017. This is going to be a day that will be of some historical interest, as this is the day that news broke about James Comey’s notes regarding his conversations with Donnie Two Scoops. Donnie apparently committed an act that can only be described as obstruction …

Day 19,600
I guess it’s safe to say that my Monday was a little bit better than some other people’s Mondays. I do find certain aspects of politics fascinating (cue Spock-like raised eyebrow). It sucks on a level when you realize that the guy that currently lives in the White House would seemingly show off classified information to …
