2024 may go down as the most consequential year of my lifetime, if not of all time. This country is on a collision course with one of the most unethical, self-centered, democracy hating, constitutional demising person ever. Donald J. Trump, the wannabe Czar of America, is making another run at being president. But not as…
Over the last eight to ten years, this country that I served for over thirty-seven years has become barely recognizable. We have an ex-president, secretary of state, and too many White House councils to mention that are all under indictment for numerous crimes. I think the latest I heard; Trump is charged with over ninety-one…
After a brief comment exchange with my book editor, Katie, over my article “Morning Thoughts”, I was left with a restless mind. This restlessness is not from her comments or mine, but more thinking about the basis for our beliefs and the ideologies we have created for ourselves. On a portal call, I off-hand made…
Middle of Kansas, we saw this sign that read “Adoption, not Abortion”. All sorts of things came to mind as I continued to drive. Most of the things I thought bordered on the insanity of whomever paid to have the sign made. This is a midwestern state that on the outside you would think of…

For the last few weeks, I’ve been making a point of not watching news other than to get local info and the weather. I have to say I have felt better and have been less stressed even though I’ve gotten bits and pieces of the craziness going on. I’m not sure I can keep it…
In Texas, if you want work done from a contractor, you’re going to eventually run into folks that are wrapped up in the world of the GOP Far-Way Far-Right-Winged Conspiracy Theorists. They are prime targets, especially the white blue-collared guys. These guys are the uneducated white males, typically, in fear that they could have their…
Outside of being busy, I’ve neglected writing and the mind is beginning to get full of opinions to mumble about. So much so, I feel I’m walking around irritated about current events and wishing I was of an age to do something about it. Nothing more is on my mind than the madman in Russia,…
The self-described stable genius is anything but. He was, and is, the most unstable and insecure person of power I think I’ve ever seen, but maybe not as I read about some of the past presidents. I am finding that he may not even be the most ego-driven of Presidents ever. I discover that FDR…
