”The problem with quotes from the internet is that you can never quite be sure they are genuine’” – Abraham Lincoln” Once upon a time, people believed anything they were told. Oh wait! They still do! After all everyone knows that if it is online it must be true! Especially if thousands of other folk read it and believe it. No […]
Today is Memorial Day. At least in the US. As the very name of the day indicates, it is a day for remembering people. Remembering those that have died. Especially those that have died in the cause of creating our history; our present. So I have a question. Why do we choose to only remember the soldiers? Is it only noble and honorable to […]
I had this crazy thought the other day! Of course anyone who has met me, or taken a peek at my blogs, may not actually be too surprised by this concept. I am just one bundle of crazy thoughts. This particular crazy thought has taken hold though. All the voices in my head are having a field day with this particular thought. Once again […]
After simmering in my own stew for the last couple of day (oooh what an appetizing image that must create), I have lots of thoughts that need sorting. Writing is one of my fundamental ways of doing just that. I find that my best writing just happens. I am the mere conduit for words that wish to be read. They are […]
Warning! Possibly depressing post! And definitely a long one. With no pictures. Good one to miss if you are in a lighthearted mood! My serenity is still disturbed. (Waves on my serenity) More pieces of the pattern keep appearing. More posts from others in the blogging world. A conversation I just had today with a new online acquaintance. TV […]

I tend to think in patterns, when most are focused on details. Because of this, I have a holistic view of reality. I believe everything is interconnected on some […]
Been in hiding for a few days. I sometimes do that. Especially when I lose site of the positive. And sadly the negative seems to often come as a surrounding cloud, instead of a simple drop of rain. Usually when I hide away, I do a lot of thinking. About the world. About me. About […]
I put this disclaimer on one of my more involved and thought filled posts (The Road to Entropy): Knowledge is limiting. Knowledge is static. Understanding is limitless. Understanding is fluid. I lay no claim to knowledge. I do lay claim to understanding. The primary weakness of the following is that it is written with words. Words lie in […]
I decided to create in another forum for a change. May not be anything spectacular, but it was fun to make. And maybe even a little enjoyable. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPHci0r9fpg]
I have already posted my S post for today. Yet I have another thought that I need to run with, and it so happens that it too can fit in the S slot. So two for today. But even without the A to Z challenge I would write this. It seems several have been wondering “why […]
