October 29, 2024 by David Gillaspie Leave a Comment

HPV-16 cancer is on the ballot this time around. You wouldn’t know it because there’s no hoopla, but it’s there. Sometimes it’s here, sometimes it’s there, but most of the time it’s a mystery. But, dear readers, as you know, cancer of any kind is a hard road to travel. What are my cancer talk […]

LESSON LEARNED, BUT WHICH ONE? TRENDS

October 20, 2024 by David Gillaspie

A lesson learned ought to last a lifetime. What has lasted a lifetime: riding a bike, tying shoes. What should last a lifetime: That one perfect haircut, true love, your dog. In most cases we adjust the timeline.

MODERN ELDERS SEEK AUDIENCE WITH YOUTHS

October 18, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Modern elders want to be heard by someone. They have much to impart to the rising generations, but there’s a problem. Can the ‘Me Generation’ ever get over itself enough to make sense? Will young people ever trust those who said never trust anyone over thirty?

BIG DISAPPOINTMENTS, BECAUSE THERE’S MORE THAN ONE

October 16, 2024 by David Gillaspie

My big disappointments are what come up first in a life review. “Dang, that could have worked out better.” Following that track doesn’t lead to a very good review. This post will explain how to work it out better for both baby boomers and the new biggest generation of Millennials. Go big, or go home, […]

October 14, 2024 by David Gillaspie

AMERICAN PROCESS = THE GRIND

October 9, 2024 by David Gillaspie

American process is what we’re famous for around here. The U.S. didn’t become what it is today by scrapping everything and starting over, although some argue that that’s what FDR did in the Great Depression. Not my argument. Why? Because FDR was schooled in the American process. He had been a state senator, assistant secretary […]

STOMP OUT CANCER FROM THE KICK OFF

October 5, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Stomp out cancer was the theme for the Oregon Ducks v Michigan State football game at Autzen stadium. It was a fitting theme in my family where cancer is no stranger. Maybe your family, too, but I hope not. Here’s what it looks like and sounds like:
