LIFELONG LEARNING? WHEN DOES IT END

Lifelong learning is a goal, or should be a goal. Do it right and you’ll always have a motherlode of regret: “If I only knew then what I know now.” Call it what it is: continuing education. And it’s never over.

PERSONAL ATTACHMENTS KEEP GROWING

GOOGLE GAME NEEDS PRO HELP?

Your google game tells who you are? A new rorschach test? The old test always looked like a broken spine and shattered hips, but okay. The new test results would be disappointing. Why?

NEEDED CHANGE BEGINS WITH . . . ? VOTING

‘Needed change?’ Just repeating the words lends a sense of urgency. Something goes wrong? Something’s not right? Someone’s got a better idea? What about that ‘better idea?’

LOVE STORY WITH CLOSING DOORS AND WINDOWS

The love story in The Last Rave is a warning. But a warning for who? From a gender perspective it’s a warning for women who want more from their guy. Turns out some guys have bigger problems than women who want them to want more with them.
