“We have a word like gloaming to describe that certain shoulder of time between day and night. But what word do we have for that equal time in the morning, before the sun has risen yet the world is still full of color and light?” This was a Facebook memory from a few days ago,… Continue reading June 3, 2026

As you can tell by the date, I tried writing this blog yesterday. I had a theme I wanted to address (ironically, I have a plan usually when writing blogs, even as the blog was going to be about how I don’t typically plan things). I got to where I wanted to go with it,… Continue reading March 19, 2026

When running for President, Bill Clinton’s campaign team created a mantra for him to focus on. (I know his name has always been a little poisonous, and now somewhat more than ever, but believe me, this isn’t about him.) Although it would become public knowledge, “It’s the economy, stupid” doesn’t rank up there with other… Continue reading March 12, 2026

It snowed yesterday. They were calling for a foot or so, although it looks like we only got a few inches here. There’s a consensus at work about “too little, too late,” and can’t we just get to spring? But it was a peaceful view out the window yesterday, watching it fall. The living room… Continue reading March 6, 2026

A regular occurrence at work will be members coming in with their guests coming in, walking directly past the bar, and going out on the terrace to show off the view. It happens so often that I am sometimes thrown off when it doesn’t, and they walk up to the bar instead. A couple of… Continue reading February 26, 2026

I waste a lot of time on Reddit. I’m sure, like most websites, that’s what Reddit is there for. I wouldn’t be surprised if the original designers had a more altruistic view of what kind of question-answering service they would be providing, but while it may still do that about 0.2% of the time, the… Continue reading February 19, 2026
Mile High in Montana
Hi kiddos. It’s been a while. My last blog was at the end of December, 2023. Not really sure what sparked the hiatus then. I will admit that what took me a while to get back here was forgetting how to log back in. But, if you know me, and I assuming you do if… Continue reading Mile High in Montana

Faith might seem like a strange topic for me to write about, with its obvious connections to religion, and to a lesser extent, politics. With one notable exception a short while back, I try to keep my professional ethos of “no politics, no religion” part of my personal life as well. But, for reasons that… Continue reading November 26, 2019

I was driving home from work the other night when I found myself having an odd wishing to have an answering machine again. The practical stupidity of this notwithstanding (i.e., I don’t have a home phone, nor have had one for time probably measurable in decades,) it wasn’t before I even got off the highway… Continue reading July 22 2019

A couple weeks back, I wrote about being at the barber shop and overhearing one of the other barbers talk about some art she was going to buy when she thought it was $20, but passed when she found out it was $50. That led me to think about how we determine the value of… Continue reading June 11, 2019
