WHO DUN IT? How many times have you read of a robbery and been given NO identifiable details about the “perp?” The person is being “sought” but you don’t even know whether it is a male or female, race, hair color, eye color, type of shoes, or shampoo preference … NOTHING. How are you supposed to be …

GUEST POST from Don – The Rest of The Story
THE REST OF THE STORY Not Paul Harvey’s version, unfortunately. Reuters posts: “Millions lose food stamps under Trump cuts. Arizona is hardest hit.“I read the story. I looked for something therein and did not find it. Here’s the issue … If I tell you that “Product A is 40% cheaper” you should know what it is …

GUEST POST from Don – Here’s A Tip +
HERE’s A TIP + I have been thinking about the stupidity of tipping. Many people complain (like about the weather) but no one does anything about it. WHY A CASH TIP? When going to a restaurant I now carry CASH in my wallet for the tip. I have a wad of small bills in an envelope at home. Every …

GUEST POST from Don – My Parents Were Right
MY PARENTS WERE RIGHT Don’t you hate it when you disagree with someone who’s right? First, WHY were they right? Good question. They were right because they had a 25 year head start. They had experienced failure, loss, icky diapers, sleepless nights, and the common cold. Thus, they knew stuff. They knew shortcuts AND when not to take them. Second, …

GUEST POST from Don – Clocks
CLOCKS It is time. The House just passed a bill to encourage states to choose DST. It doesn’t matter to me whether we use Daylight Saving Time (DST) or Standard Time. Just choose ONE. The jumping around makes me dizzy. Arizona doesn’t move to DST ever … and they do just fine! The purpose of the …

GUEST POST from Don – Life Is Hard?
LIFE IS HARD? Of course, if you have never researched the past, nor lived it … the current stream of events seems “hard” (by which you actually mean “uncomfortable.”) Some writers seem intent on telling us how “hard” things are. But I lived through Carter, Ford, and Obama. Things were much harder then. We were told under Obama …

GUEST POST from Don – Faces Of God
FACES OF GOD In Genesis 32:22-32 we have the story of Jacob wrestling with God. He, alone in the wilderness, wrestled with him until the break of day. I won’t tell the whole story here (you can read it for yourself). But Jacob would not let go of God unless God blessed him. So Jacob received a new name. “…Israel, for …

GUEST POST from Don – Tattoo It
TATTOO IT I just read the most sensible thing in ages about practical tattoos. Of course you’ve heard of people who have tattooed permanent eyebrows in the correct location just above their eyes. That’s smart. Of course, never do it while drunk in Jamaica or you may end up with tattoos which turn green over time (green …

GUEST POST from Don – Out Of Touch+
OUT OF TOUCH + It is absolutely OK to be out of touch with everything but people. You don’t need to know anything about “GEN Who?”You don’t need to know the latest slang.You don’t need to know who won some game, or what TV show is “hot.”You don’t even need to know technology, how to …

GUEST POST from Don – Longevity (part II)
LONGEVITY (Part II) As I mentioned, I was introduced to this topic because of an article I mentioned in the post called “Hoarding?” This explains why THAT article was so far off base. So, genetics plays a much larger role in longevity than scientists once imagined. Nevertheless, in the USA people ARE living a few years longer …
