Who is quick to pull a red flag as often as possible? The same people who whine the loudest when they get flagged. If that’s you, let’s talk about flagmanship, red flagmanship.
LOTTERY WINNER: WHAT IF IT WAS YOU, OR ME?
I don’t know about you, but if I were to come into $650,000,000.00 I’d have to be as a lottery winner. But that’s just me, a regular guy. I’m a regular guy doing regular things, you know, normal stuff. A self-proclaimed Alpha Male Apex Man? That’s someone else. Now you know I’m not the guy […]
STARTING OUT vs FINISHING THE SHOW
Starting out is so slow, so hard, that sometimes the only thing you feel like doing is quitting. Whether it’s work, family, or friends, we get tired. Sooo tired. But it wasn’t always like that. Was it?
ROSE FESTIVAL DONE RIGHT IN PORTLAND? RAMBLE ON
Rose Festival week for Portland Oregon baby boomers when we were single? It was good, real good. We didn’t have cars back then and it didn’t matter since we lived so close to the parade route through Portland. Yesterday was a throwback to those days of old in New Portland.

Love and power are nice, but the driver is, […]
FRAGILE CONDITIONS FOR A HAPPY LIFE
Fragile conditions lay all around us but we never notice until fragile turns into broken. Speak up too early and you’re ‘One Of Them’, a worry wort, or attention whore, or you’ve too much time on your hands, kind of person. I’ve seen a message, maybe you too, that life on earth is dependent on […]
