    the weekend.

    Oh, then its perfectly fine with me. I think most of us cry more once we get older. I think some of it is tears shed for happiness, but also we shed tears for this cruel world we have to live in. Every time I have to look at suffering human beings, I cry inside, like an infant. For I know...

    The "eyes" have it

    Oh yes, the eyes are the windows to the soul. I was born with blue eyes, and all my brothers have blue eyes as well. So did my dad. We got it from my irish grandmother, my dad's mom. I have seen eyes filled with love, but also with cruelty in other eyes. I always look a person deeply in the...

    the weekend.

    Oh, I am sorry I made you cry. Love is eternal, and just because she is no longer here in body, the love remains. Love cannot be lost, if its real love. I am so lucky to have found her years ago, and nothing ever came between us, and my life would have been incomplete without this person...

    the weekend.

    Well, for me, after the doc told me yesterday I am still cancer free, a miracle by the way, his words, my weekend will be spent in a national forest, in a small tent if it rains, being in the Presence of the Creator and of someone else very special. There is this place I know of, that I...

    Ian Punnett Update

    LOL. Ok, I hate to laugh at Ian, but it really is sort of funny, since the bite doesn't look too bad. I have been bitten by dogs, big ones, little ones, several times, and this was always preceded by the owner telling me to not to worry, their dog has never bitten anyone. In many cases, I broke...

    Have you ever felt.....?

    Oh, it's been building for quite some time, my great dissatisfaction, and the helplessness I feel, as I see my country go down the tubes, in most part because of the corruption in both entrenched parties. These are not serious men we have, these men don't give a damn about this nation, or its...

    Have you ever felt.....?

    yeah, local elections, I will continue doing. I voted against both parties last time, and if I am in the right mood, I may do that again. But it all seems rather pointless to me, today. I literally have become to hate politics, for they all seem to be corrupt, and are not public servants but...

    Have you ever felt.....?

    ...like just throwing your hands up and giving up completely on our political system? And I mean to do it in such a way as to stop voting in the federal elections? For me, I am there, right now, after a lifetime of being a good citizen, doing my civic duty by voting. I will never go and vote...

    You have to move...

    Wow. I couldn't put up with that crap. I have heard what you have said before, that neighbors hardly speak to one another in the cities and having been in big cities in my life, I have witnessed the same thing, but I feel sad about it. For one could be really alone, living in such a place...

    Anti-American Psychology

    If a guy from the outside is so easily corrupted, the ones who have spent their lives as rulers(not public servants) would only be smarter and not get caught. I am sorry, for the attitude, but given where this nation has been taken for the last several decades, by both parties, the only hope is...

    Another school official who needs firing.

    You know, this idea of corporal punishment got me to thinking about how I raised up my own kids. As turned out, my oldest daughter never needed a spanking, for a stern voice would suffice in all cases. My youngest was alas as I was at that age, and was stubborn, and seemed able to understand all...

    You have to move...

    I love and cherish my mom, but when she was younger, she really seemed to thrive on keeping stuff stirred up. Made my life far more complicated than I found comfortable. Thankfully as she aged, (she is now 82) she has mellowed out quite nicely and no longer expends energy in that direction. I...

    Another school official who needs firing.

    Hey man, I agree with you. I missed the lack of water part. One thing to have students walk, quite another to deny water intake. That is an offense worthy of job termination. The teachers of my day would have never done something like that. Our teachers were smarter, more intelligent and there...

    Another school official who needs firing.

    Man, I just cannot agree with them being fired. But understand, I grew up in an era of real corporal punishement, and had a few paddlings growing up, which mean when I got home I got punished as well. The punishment depended upon the degree of the infraction at school. Walking outside is not...

    You have to move...

    Well said about the "eclectic" and a better word would be hard to find. We have plans(me and my daughter's family) to move down on our gulf coast where my other daughter and family are living. (her husband is from that area) sometime in the future, in a little place called Ocean Springs...

    Do you play a musical instrument?

    Well yeah, a product of my time I guess. A musical mystic. LOL. I enjoy listening to the array of birds here at sunrise, and have a seat on my front porch where I have my coffee unless it is raining. I sit there and just listen with no thought clouding up, muddying up the mind. It is a...

    Student twirls pencil in class, gets psych exam.

    So no marching to a different drummer today? Most of it is harmless, and surely a person with a good brain could discern the difference. Thoreau just rolled a bit in his earthly resting place. You know I recall vividly attending school with all sorts of personalities. That is what made it...

    If you had to interview...

    Right off the bat, I would say Rupert Sheldrake. When he wasn't keeping you in stitches from his comedic wit, you would be learning things about science that most people just don't have a clue about. He started out as one of the most brilliant biologists, the UK has had in awhile, but became a...

    Wanna bet this cop gets a promotion?

    From the same article.... Folks, I am afraid our society has become corrupt from the highest office holders in DC to the lowest on the beat police. I guess its just the little guys in power following suit with the big boys in power. I have believed for many years that we should draft our...

    Recall beef for possible Mad Cow

    Whoah mule!!! When I first read that story it stated the patient had just traveled to Europe and that as where he got infected. So we have animals with it here?
