No, I don’t mean Harvey Dent (Two Face), but rather the hurricane, of course. I can’t help but pay attention to it. Fox, CNN, and other broadcasters directly talk about the hurricane or shrink the redundant blue/green/red/yellow swirls to the right-hand corner of the screen just in case if people don’t watch it, it could… Read more

She and her twin brother where born in a shelter. Her brother was larger and more strong. She was weak, timid, and shy. Abandoned and without a name, she hid from the others least they attack because of her smallness. The girl ate the scraps left behind and only when no one was watching. Head… Read more

For the past week, Jason has been by my side. He’s slept in my bed. Drove with me in my (mom’s) car. We went to the Indiana Museum together, had dinner, and played putt-putt. Today, he headed back on Southwest going southeast – returning to TPA – returning to St. Pete – returning to a… Read more

I don’t look at the Columbus paper often. – I guess I became a bit spoiled in Florida. There, I read the Wall St. Journal, Bloomburg, the Economist and, every once in a while, the Tampa Tribune and the St. Pete Times. I can guarantee that there was never a front page headline about keeping… Read more

Some 15 years ago, when Jason worked at Sears and I at Knology, we were on a carousel. Our lives were fairly controlled. We had some time off together. The work was mostly steady. We knew what we had to do in our respected jobs day in and day out. Based upon scheduling, we actually… Read more

Every once in a while.. well, more frequently since I’ve had more time… I check on this discussion board. It’s one of those boards that a lot (supposedly) intelligent people post on. Primarily a gaming cite, it covers… everything and of often with excruciating detail about nearly every game imaginable. I mean, this is where… Read more

Buying is a source of power. – It’s something so simple that most tend to take it for granted. Buying milk for the family? That’s power. Being able to pay a bill. That’s power. However, that’s not enough. The ability to buy items to provide the basic and essential needs for ourselves and others isn’t… Read more

I remember watching the very first American broadcast of the first episode. I don’t exactly remember what the episode was about, but remember my impressions of poor acting, shoddy costumes, awful backgrounds, and questionable film editing. I was rather amused by what was wrong and remember, distinctly, speaking to now lost friend Elizabeth. Elizabeth liked it. … Read more
