LONDON CALLING AND THE ANWER IS?

May 15, 2024 by David Gillaspie

The wife and I answered to London calling for the third time. For the second time we flew in on a big old jet plane, the other time was the Chunnel. Call me historically haunted, but coming into town in the same air space as the Battle of Britain is quite a bit to process. […]

REWRITING HISTORY: HOW HARD CAN IT BE

April 15, 2024 by David Gillaspie

People are rewriting history all of the time and don’t know it. If you repeat what you’ve heard to one person, and it turns out to be not accurate, what’s the big deal? Not so big for one person, but what if you repeat what you know to be false to millions of people? Do […]

WORTH REMEMBERING? IT STARTS WITH EVERYTHING THEN A LITTLE LESS

March 3, 2024 by David Gillaspie

It’s worth remembering the important things in your life. Did I ever know about the lines in a red cup? Will it matter in the future? I like the idea of the lines meaning something, but I just want a full pour of whatever’s supposed to be in there.

WRITING TIME QUESTION: WHAT’S THE POINT?

March 1, 2024 by David Gillaspie
