You can have my toys…
When you pry them from my cold, dead fingers. 😋 I don’t think I’ve ever truly grown up, and I have the sneaking suspicion I never truly will. Nor do I think I want to. The things I’ve enjoyed the most, I have enjoyed since I was a very young lad and I never saw…

Moonlight: 2/7/25
Been a hot minute since I posted some sky shots, so what the hell eh? Taken Friday evening, 2/7/25. Not my best shots, but far from my worst. 😄

There Can Be Only One (Or Two…)
If I was forced to choose only one candy, then it would very likely be Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. Caveat: I much prefer the big cup, trees or eggs, etc. Way more PB than the chintzy regular ones these days! If only they still made them like they did back in the day. Damned Shrinkflation.…

Power Visions (Purple 2.0 Edition)
Embrace The Power I haven’t done a PV post in a minute or two, so I figured why the hell not? Some days, we truly feel like we have been utterly, totally defeated. We wake up and ask ourselves “Why me?” “Why do I feel lousy again?” “Why do I feel so hopeless?” “When will…

Gimme a break, man
2/7/25: Looking back on this one, and honestly, my take really has not changed much at all. I guess it just goes to show that the more things change, the more they stay the same. 😄 What do I need a break from? Oh, hell… Lots of things. Half-Assed Leaders: Whether we’re talking business, politics…

Justice
The crowd roars. El Matador! Master of the Bulls. But, in a split second… He stumbles. He falls. Gored repeatedly. El Matador is dead. For once, finally… There is justice.

Day After Day
Well, I think right off the bat, every decent day should start with a cup of java! Maybe even a few…? Let’s be real, kids. One is rarely enough. After, or even during, that, I’d likely be on the computer checking in here and other random sites. A bit of reading, a bit of writing…

Beginnings & Endings
I have been here since time immemorial. I have seen beginnings and endings. Births and deaths. Dawn and Twilight. Empires rise, And then they fall. One common thread… Running though the fabric of time. In any day and any age, None do more damage to humankind. Than humankind itself.

No Comment!
More accurately, “No to the new comments dashboard.” 😄 Still not digging it… Man, I don’t know. When I recently came back after a couple days away and saw the new comments dash layout, to say I was a bit frustrated would be a huge understatement. First, it just looks like a huge wall of…
