I'm married to Laura the Soup Diva and a dog dad to Frankie, Cody, and Mikey. Daily I work for a blood bank recruiting donors.

Everyone Is Weird

It’s good that I am weird. Would you want it any other way? Everyone is weird when you think about it. They just don’t realize it yet.

Star Trek – First Contact Day #StarTrek

First Contact Day was a holiday celebrated to honor both the warp 1 flight of the Phoenix and first open contact between Humans and Vulcans on April 5th, 2063 in Bozeman, Montana. This is a fictional future history but with some dreaming it could be reality. To all the Star Trek fans out there, Boldly Go today and Live Long And Prosper.

Easter Sunday 2021 #Episcopal #Chattanooga

Easter Sunday celebrated at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church in Chattanooga. It was a beautiful day for an outside service.

A Easter Sunday message from Presiding Bishop Michael Curry of the Episcopal Church in the USA.

Vintage Ad Of The Day – Easter Candy

This ad seems so colorful for this time in history to celebrate Easter. Candy is a important part of the observance. My favorite Easter candy is black jelly beans and Reese’s peanut butter eggs.

Post-Vaccine Update

The Pfizer vaccine is a miracle of modern medicine but its making me feel not my best. Body chills, some aches and fatigue are making their presence known today. I am taking this Saturday to rest and hopefully get to feeling better. It’s weird how this works. This is for the long-term good so I won’t get COVID down the road. I hope you all are doing OK.

A Good Friday Thought

I wanna think on this Good Friday that Jesus would have been more welcome at Woodstock and a local pub than in some churches and schools who claim him as their Lord and Savior. Jesus wasn’t much for performative displays of pretentious piety.
