At this moment, I’m 56 revolutions short of 62 trips around the Sun. Maybe that is relevant, maybe not. But for whatever reason, I’ll cast my vote tonight for relevance. It is the 23rd day of August in the year of our Lord, 2025, and I’m in a casino hotel room on the Mississippi […]
**** You may notice the featured artwork isn’t up to par with what I normally use. There are a couple of reasons why. First of all, Chelsea has encountered some issues with social media and I only recently found out. We will be getting this resolved quickly. Secondly, this post came out of left field […]
NOTE: I started writing this back in August. Since that day, we have had almost no rain until yesterday. Now that we were blessed with yesterday’s rain, I decided to finish. The rain probably has nothing to do with it, but the finished product comes from a decidedly more positive point-of-view than if I […]
I heard a story one day that provided food for a lot of thought and conjecture. To the best of my recollection, the story goes something like this. Once there was a young man who dreamed of being a rodeo cowboy. He seemed to have the gift to be good at it and […]
For those of you who have been with me from the beginning, I offer my apologies for making you wait. Life, work, writer’s block, all are excuses that I could use for the delay. But it mainly comes down to the fact that I struggled with this section. I wrote it and started over probably […]
In light of the holiday, I guess it would be a great opportunity for me to write a little something about Thanksgiving. To the believer, I’d say that this year, especially, we need to take time to really, really, give thanks to The LORD GOD ALMIGHTY for his many blessings. Not the cursory thanks given […]
In a recent rendering from yours truly, I referenced an idea or theory in which I believe that we are a population of the blind. I expressed that as “modern-day” humans, we tend to get so absorbed in the pace of existence that sight becomes dimmed or even lost. I acknowledge that I am not […]
It is my theory based upon nonscientific observation, that we live within a population of the blind. Life; the pace is so fast and the current so strong, people go through the motions, striving for an undefined prize, with no lasting reward for their toil. They fail to realize the hunger in which they are […]
Life is strange. There is absolutely no doubt about it. Unequivocally, LIFE itself will kill you. The first rule, though, is that there are rarely “do-overs” in this life. Simply put, to date, the “do-over” just has not been perfected. Who among us wouldn’t sign up for, and pay a premium for just one good […]
Golf is a sport. Golf is challenging. Golf is demanding. Golf is aggravating. Golf is about Zen, maturation, soul searching, honesty, dishonesty, mental anguish, foul language, promises to the universe, and a provocative search for the meaning of life. Or, it’s nothing more than a beer-filled afternoon of bullshitting with friends while wearing some cool […]
