EXTRA EFFORT GOES TO THE TOP

October 9, 2019 by David Gillaspie

With a little extra effort, an image of the Fox Theater in Portland, Oregon could be an entire universe. I’ve heard stories, read interviews, of famous directors who said movie theaters were their whole world growing up. I saw a movie about a kid whose whole world was the village theater. With a little extra […]

Portland Bird Flip To The Rest Of You

September 3, 2018 by David Gillaspie

The Portland bird is one thing, the Portland bird flip a whole ‘nother thing. If it’s not this, it’s that for Portland. Close to the mountains, close to the beach, and if the pace of new building is any indicator, close to the new neighbors. Like any city over a certain […]

BOOMER STREET

April 24, 2018 by David Gillaspie

Baby boomer gets the message. We’ve heard the message all of our lives. It goes like this: Move over little dog, the big old dog is moving in. We were once the little dog and moved over for those who knew better. We did what we were told. The idea is […]

NATUROPATHIC PHYSICIANS KNOW NUTRITION FIRST

February 27, 2018 by David Gillaspie

My wife shared a joke with me. She’s a naturopathic physician, Dr. Gillaspie. It had nothing to do with the old television show with young Dr. Kildare and his colleague Dr. Gillaspie. “Early in our practices doctors from my class would talk about what it must be like as an RD, a real […]

MEXICO TRAVEL: PUERTO VALLARTA PERFECTION, pt3

January 14, 2018 by David Gillaspie

The top down view from the seventh floor in Old Vallarta, or Viejo Vallarta, to the square. Is it Frida Kahlo’s turquoise house? It’s the right color. If it part of the Kahlo catalogue, she’s got octopus on her self portrait. But it’s not Frida. Not enough eyebrow.

For any questions about President Trump, his behavior in office, and general lifestyle, there’s a simple answer: He’s a Five Diamond President. If that’s not good enough, he’s also a Six Star Diamond man. What you see in President Trump is the result of decades of pampered living. Nothing wrong […]

MAKE NEW NORMAL BETTER THAN OLD NORMAL? THAT’S THE NEW JOB

January 6, 2018 by David Gillaspie

I’ll never to get used to hearing about the ‘new normal,’ which is a pretty common topic after cancer treatment. “How is your new normal?” I’ve heard. “Do you miss the things you can’t do anymore?” I’ve heard. What’s the right answer? There is no right answer, but the questions ought to serve […]
