it’s mostly a question of slowing down

Like almost every time I go out and socialize, last night I did and/or said some things I wish I hadn’t…I must learn how think about what I’m about to do or say…but I can’t/shouldn’t take too long, however much time that is…whatever impact humor has is dependent at least in part, on TIMING… The […]

the alternative to FB? I hope so

At some point, I started to see problems with Facebook…in reality, the problems are with Humans; my reasons for being here again after however many years it’s been are no longer clear to me but here I am in any case…I don’t think there’s ANY secure website on the Internet, but I’m not gonna let […]

the senior moments are starting to add up

So the Holiday Blues are in my bloodstream now…Spring seems so far away…The former in-laws (among others) are coming here on Sunday; I think it’s the final night of Hanukkah…oh boy…the roomie doesn’t want me to NOT be there, so…in workplace news, Robert is on vacation the last two weeks of December…I might be doing […]

a good way to start the new year

I think I’ve just about had it with Fakebook…It’s too dark and ugly for me; I still have my cyber-diary, but I actually told a stranger about that…I DO wish I could take that back, I don’t EVEN know why I did that…I met this person on a certain website and then became “friends” on […]

but…I’m right…

There ARE people who believe that “Muslim=terrorist”…to deny that (that some people believe it)  is IMO extremely naive…but by my stating that, I’ve started a shitstorm on Facebook…I didn’t say, and I’m not saying now that I believe that to be true;but it certainly FEELS that way sometimes…So this “friend” wanted me to name names…and I […]

the reasons why

I KNOW there’s more important things goin’ on in the World–like always…but I know ME more than I know about anything else, so…I went out last night with the intention to play Music with somebody, anybody…I had two choices of places to go to accomplish that…I didn’t wanna go to Hershey’s because a certain young […]

that’s what it took

I KNOW my American Life is better than uncountable numbers of other inhabitants of the Planet but it helps me to actually see it for myself…I had this revelation while I was in the Bahamas…I guess the people in that part of the World can look back at their lives and say “We were poor, […]

What does the World look like to you?

  Maybe it’s what the Media generally does–emphasize the bad things that happen to Humanity…Good news is hard to find, not impossible but not all that common either…I don’t WANT to be pessimistic about Life on Planet Earth, but I almost feel that I have no choice…My Life?  I feel somewhat blessed, more or less…It […]

I had no idea…

So I was just doing what I usually do before bedtime (more or less) when I discovered that apparently there still is a thing called FRIENDBURST…I’m currently bored with the other FB, so it’s nice to have somewhere else to go…That is, it seems like there’s still a thing called FRIENDBURST…how is that possible? I’ve […]

is this how it works?

just got back from election judge training…maybe it’s old age or something, but it seems more complicated than than before…or maybe my brain is turning into mush…I felt really stupid…it’s also possible that the instructors were in a hurry (they really were)… the roomie actually suggested going out to see a certain band that I […]
