I use social media as a way of connecting with other people and keeping up with what is going on with my interests. Of course, I comment but in a respectful manner. You have to be responsible for how you use it these days. Beware the comments my good people.

The First Thing On My Noggin
Jot down the first thing that comes to your mind.
I need to be sure I hit publish when posting to my blog.
Earth Day 2023, Environmentalism Can Be Easy #EarthDay
Today is Earth Day and it’s important to take care of the only planet we have. It’s as simple as recycling, reusing, and repurposing to reduce waste in landfills. Also carpooling, conserving energy, and being mindful of the things you do that can impact our climate. Everyone can do these things. Celebrating Earth Day every day is something we should all do.
Star Trek: Picard – Farewell Next Generation Crew – Non-Spoilerly Review #StarTrek
As a Star Trek fan, I embrace all of Trek. It’s what Gene Roddenberry had in mind I believe. Tonight was the series finale of Star Trek: Picard and I must say it hit me in all the feels. There was lots of high-quality fan service here and I was drinking it like a great wine from Chateau Picard Winery.
Saying farewell to The Next Generation crew was sad and I am glad their story concluded in the way they did it. Picard featured some of the best writing and direction of any TV show in recent times. Yes, I am biased. I believe they have set the franchise up for the future with new stories to tell and to seek out new life and new civilizations.
Thanks to the Picard cast and crew for three great seasons of action and adventure. To the Next Generation team thank you for taking us on a sentimental journey and bringing us a fitting farewell.
This was awesome. Live Long and Prosper.
The Yearly Taxing Situation
Today, April 18, 2023, is when individual income taxes are due in the United States. I am glad to pay my taxes. To me, it’s the cost of living in a community or country that provides you with services such as education, sanitation, fire service, police protection, national defense, maintained roads, and other things that make life better. However when you get hit with a tax bill more than you thought it would be it’s a true shock to the system.
Sure it’s a matter of having enough money and enough withheld from your paycheck but still it’s not an easy pill to swallow. I guess it means making adjustments and rolling with the punches. Death and taxes are indeed life’s certainties.
Also don’t forget to pay the cheese tax to your dog. If you don’t know what I am talking about go on YouTube or Instagram and search for it.
