  • Up Late

    I stayed up late last night. I slept in late today. At a little after noon I hurried out of bed and got dressed so I could take the garbage to the curb before the truck came. As I was putting on my socks my wife informed me that garbage is delayed this week because…

  • Political Change

    How have your political views changed over time? I loved Reagan as a teenager. I joined the Army to fight the Commies. I didn’t really know what a Republican was except that every adult in my circle hated them. Episcopalians lean heavily progressive. I lived on my own for most of my twenties and my…

  • The Perfect Office

    Any place set apart for reading and writing will have good lighting and a raised desk. I would want it to be quiet as well. I would probably want a place where electronics were prohibited. Old tomes on the walls of a secret library would give it the correct feel. A body guard standing outside…

  • Best Car

    What is your all time favorite automobile? There’s a song by Audio Adrenaline called, “My Chevette.” It’s about a little car that his dad owned that got thirty miles to the gallon and did 0 to 60 sometimes. Those are awesome little cars and probably my second favorite. But my favorite is a car like…

  • Renaissance Man

    How are you creative? I am obviously working on my writing. This year I have made a little over 500 blog posts. It should come as no surprise to anyone paying attention to this blog that I have been doing digital art for many years. I occasionally break out into song and do other spontaneous…

  • 2:18pm 25 December 2023

    On this date and time I clocked out of Walgreens for the very last time in my life. There are a lot of people I will miss working with. What I will not miss is the corporation. If anyone would like to hear me complain about Walgreens in private you can message me. But they…

  • Influences

    Who are the biggest influences in your life? First of all I am an “influencer.” I am the biggest influence in my life as far as people go. After that, in descending order, are my wife, my parents, the brethren of the local LDS ward, my coworkers at Walgreens, and my Facebook family. Some of…

  • Christmastime in Retail

    I worked the floor tonight and we had hundreds of last minute shoppers. I spend most of the evening on a cash register. It got me wondering how we ever got to this point in our culture where Christmas is a time for big sales and a lot of them. I suppose there’s a practical…

  • The Day I Was Born

    Share what you know about the year you were born. I don’t know much about the year I was born. It’s not like I have any memories of the music or politics from when I was an infant. I’m pretty sure Simon and Garfunkel were still together and that the Vietnam War was in full…
