Ramblings and such

Ramblings and such We’ve just closed out the month of August and the unofficial end to summer is this weekend. At least in the northern hemisphere. Those down under are about to move from winter to spring. As far as I’m concerned, all good times of years. I have mixed feelings about the month of…

Happy Saturday

Happy Saturday That’s right. The weekend is here. Two whole days of not having to go to work. Two whole days of skipping the grind that pays the bills and keeps food in my belly and a roof over my head. It’s a beautiful day here in Rochester, NY. Blue sky without a cloud in…

Do you want to be entertained?

Same Old Stuff Instead of watching the same old stuff on the boob tube, read a book, any book. It doesn’t have to be one of mine. Read any book that gives you pleasure, knowledge, or enjoyment. Go ahead. I dare you. Pull the plug on the boob tube and read a book. I don’t…

Thank you!

A big thank you to the person who bought a copy of my book, ‘The Taste of Honey’ the other day. I really do appreciate it. As you read it, you’ll find out just how to have an office meeting. You’ll never go to another meeting without thinking twice ever again. I hope you will…

Peanuts

What is your favorite Peanuts character? I don’t know why, but I’ve been pondering this question for a couple of days. I compared each one to what I think is important in my life and decided that Snoopy was the best fit. A dog you might ask. Look at it this way and take the…
