Any Good News ?

Black Friday– Another Opportunity To Give Thanks
Well it’s Thanksgiving night and I have to say I had a wonderful Thanksgiving …. great meal, enriching fellowship with a lot of laughs, modified slightly by some mediocre football viewing. You may be wondering did I overdo anything. Yes I must confess that I ate too much. I’m serious, I ate too much. The food was … Continue reading Black Friday– Another Opportunity To Give Thanks
Happy Thanksgiving
I can still remember the morning of Thanksgiving when I was young. The smell of the turkey cooking in the oven wafting through the house… the smell was heavenly. And then the preparation of the dressing and potatoes and gravy added to the smell and the ambience… the table being set. And then the first … Continue reading Happy Thanksgiving
Heaven Or Cryptocurrency
The other day I found myself thinking about how little I know about the many things going on in the world. Despite being 76 years old and having lived a full life with a good education, travel, study, having interfaced with many people, there is so much I don’t know. I don’t really know much … Continue reading Heaven Or Cryptocurrency

No one likes to have their weaknesses on display. I remember a time in 8th grade when Sister got the entire class together and divided them into the “A and B” category. She wasn’t fooling anyone, we immediately called it the “smart & dumb” classes. “Hey Smiley, where’d you land…oh, I’m in the dumb class…how about … Continue reading Truth Eliminates Fear
Time Is Fleeting
Originally Posted July 27, 2021 I’ve read and pondered many thoughts on “time” over the years.

Funeral marches to the grave.” (Longfellow. A Psalm … Continue reading Time Is Fleeting

Fatigue
Have you ever tried to perform when you’re fatigued. If you’re not sure, try this….. go out and run five or six “50 yard wind sprints”. If you can still stand up, go and try to shoot the basketball, it’s a disaster…. “air ball city”. You probably will limp to the side, become nauseous, and look to … Continue reading Fatigue
