GOOD LIFE? HOW LIVING IT HONORS THE PAST

A good life, living a good life, is a worthy goal. Give it a try if you haven’t already. It sets an example for those still working out right from wrong. When you talk about living that life to people who ought to know right from wrong based on their age and experience, and they […]

JOE ROGAN QUOTES? SAY IT AIN’T SO JOE

Joe Rogan looks suspiciously like the sort of man who told Neil and everyone else to get a haircut in the 60’s. ‘We don’t need your type hanging around our town making noise.’ And here we are with Neil’s noise ever since. Maybe Joe could tell him to cut his sideburns? Who is this Joe? […]

HUMAN BONDING BENT BUT NOT BROKEN

If you over-analyze how life on earth works it comes down to one thing: human bonding. Call it trust, call it faith, because those are the ingredients. As humans we are bound by trust and faith in the recipe for human bonding. Take your car for instance:

BROKEN MAN ON 1, 2, 3

Hemingway said every man is a broken man, that’s how the light gets in. His inexact quote is a little different with, “We are all broken. That’s how the light gets in,” but the same idea. I’m just not as inclusive as the big guy. ‘We’ are not all broken, not yet, at least not […]

BIGGEST VICTIM? YOU MIGHT BE YOUR OWN

The biggest victim around realizes it after someone else explains why. Hearing “It’s not your fault,” is different than thinking, ‘It could be my fault.’ Being told, “They took advantage of you,” isn’t the same as figuring out what happened. Isn’t it strange how the biggest victim shows up at the wrong time and calls […]

ASTORIA OREGON, THE FIRST RIVER CITY OF THE WEST

You won’t need a boarding pass for Astoria, Oregon. Crossing the Columbia River from the Washington side doesn’t require a ferry, either. However you will need a Boarding Pass for the Columbia River Maritime Museum. More than a nice place for a regional story, CRMM tells a big history in a big way. Astoria and […]

LIFE CHANGES AND WE KEEP UP. DOES THAT SOUND LIKE YOU?

‘Life changes’ sound morbid. When I hear those two words I think something bad must have happened. “We’ve had life changing events,” sounds a little dramatic, like something big happened. But why does it have to be a bad event? And why big? This is a post to celebrate the small life changes, the things […]

GOING HOME LIKE IT’S THE FIRST TIME GETTING OUT

Going home is a goal no matter where you start. After a year or more of covid awareness, the idea of home changed. It’s a sanctuary home, a home hospital, a home office. All together it adds up to the same thing: Home. After leaving for the first time in what feels like more than […]

FRIDAY MORNING PHOENIX FROM THE FIFTEENTH FLOOR

Friday morning in Phoenix was one empty street after another. I’m not complaining, but where was everybody? No dodging traffic, no waiting to cross a street. It felt abandoned, but maybe that’s normal during a pandemic?

ASIAN AMERICANS ARE AS AMERICAN AS IT GETS

Asian Americans are as American as it gets. I’ve said it twice. Fight me. Hate crimes against elderly Asian Americans is not a sport, not a statement, but an act of cowardice and ignorance committed by the sort of people we’ve seen too much of. Who are they? Who might be joining them? It’s people […]
