Six Word Story

Life is tough. Let’s hang on.

Something About Being Weird

Just in case you didn’t realize, I am a weirdo. Yep, 100%. Maybe each of us is weird in our own way. One thing about being weird is the things in life that makes one happy. Sometimes being weird means that finding people who share in your weirdness isn’t easy. I don’t think being weird is a choice, it’s how you are wired, it is core to who you are.

My friends, embrace what makes you different. It’s OK to march to the beat of a different drummer. I have found that weird things, media, people, and other stuff helps me cope with this world we live in.

I think more places need weird, quirky, unconventional, artistic people to make it better. Not being tied to the way others think is freedom. It’s about being authentic and not hiding things in a bushel.

To my fellow weirdos, I am with you. We are kin. We are community.

It’s Time To Fall Back To Standard Time

On Sun, Nov 2, 2025 don’t forget to set your clocks back to standard time. I hate moving the clocks back and forward, but in this case “gaining an extra hour of sleep” is not a bad thing.

Hello November, Let’s Come Together

The month of November has arrived. May we all come together in these days of uncertainty and struggle for many. Let’s hope for better days ahead. Peace and comfort to you all good people.

Something Sweet From Work

I think candy corn gets a bad rap. My workplace handed out this little pouch of candy corn in advance of Halloween. It is appreciated. How sweet of them.

In The News, Things Aren’t Good

Accurate, experienced journalism is important for keeping people informed and to keep the principles of democracy flourishing. When new organizations make cuts, that places all of that in peril. We depend on a free press to keep power in check.

Doris Kearns Goodwin said “Journalism still, in a democracy, is the essential force to get the public educated and mobilized to take action on behalf of our ancient ideals”. We need to remember these high ideals as times get tough and things change.

A certain ideology has taken root, and it isn’t good in many news operations around the country.

With all this said, I will miss the CBS Saturday Morning show with Dana Jacobson and Michelle Miller, the show was cancelled, and they lost their jobs. CBS just laid off a lot of people today. They are not changing for the better.
