CHANGING SEASONS = CHANGING CLIMATE?

September 21, 2023 by David Gillaspie

Changing seasons were more of a mystery when human intelligence gathered and agreed that the sun and stars all moved around the earth. Back then we were the center of the universe. Man, those were the good old days. Or were they?

INTERCONNECTION BLOGGER FOR CLIMATE DUBIOUS

July 21, 2023 by David Gillaspie

We need an interconnection blogger to sell climate change to the disbelievers. The scientists aren’t getting it done. Celebrities are trying but coming up short. Where is that blogger to tie it all together?

CLIMATE WRITING: IS IT HOT IN HERE OR JUST ME?

January 10, 2022 by David Gillaspie

Climate writing, climate change writing, global warming writing, are all stories to tell. The problem is those telling aren’t doing a very good job. Could I do better? Me? Hell, no. But maybe you could. Maybe you could tell it so it gets under the thick skin of big decision makers? I have ideas to […]

Climate Change In My Kitchen Is Real

July 29, 2018 by David Gillaspie

The first step to take when the air conditioning fails on the hottest week of the year, with an even hotter week on the near horizon? Stop making things hotter. No cooking. Eighty five degrees in the kitchen with nothing on is hot enough. Thinking of baking a polenta pizza? Maybe flattening […]

CLIMATE CHANGE DIRECTION: WEATHER HOAX?

June 3, 2017 by David Gillaspie

Who needs climate change help the most? Paris, France. That’s right, Paris. The same Paris of the Paris Agreement President Trump rejected. See the problem in the top pic? That’s the Eiffel Tower in the shade, except it’s not shade. Smoggy look for the City of Light. Call it a unity smoking day of a […]

PRESIDENTIAL VOTE SINCE 1900, DAVID’S VERSION

November 5, 2024 by David Gillaspie Leave a Comment

The presidential vote is tricky to gauge. Some of the guys from 1900 on are cloaked in the fog of history. While this isn’t some kind of ‘last word’ on the subject, it is a reflection of the voting mood. Sometimes you just don’t know how things will turn out.

SENIOR CITIZEN TO JUNIOR CITIZEN

September 26, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Being a senior citizen is easy. Wake up every day and thank your parents for decent DNA and a good immune system. That’s it, except for the other stuff. The other stuff? What other stuff?

YOUNG MEN LEARNING TO VOTE

September 22, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Young men can do their own math on voting, but I’ll help: One man, one vote; one woman, one vote. You have one vote, bro, and it may not seem like much, but that’s what it is. One. Vote. Does it even matter enough to bother with? One vote may not seem like much, but […]

PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN REMINDERS

July 4, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Who needs a Personal Development Plan? A PDP? More like who doesn’t. From cradle to grave we’re either doing personal development, or planning personal development. It’s good to have a plan to work. But if your goal, your plan, is to become a world class jackass, keep working.

OLD FOLKS TALKING IT OUT ON TELEVISION

June 28, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Why would old folks not rest on their laurels? Either they’re not tired, or they have no laurels. Last night’s Presidential Debate showed more than just the candidates. It also showed the problem with the format.
