Just plain pelican facts. That’s what they are. Don’t need to make it any more complicated than that. And they’re not dry, scientific bits of information. Far from it. Here’s what I’m talking about. And if you’re not interested in … Read the rest
Okie dokie, it’s long overdue. And I hope they pump up the Americana and build “a whole new world,” so to speak. Of course, I’m talking about the $2 billion American-themed amusement park and resort that’ll be in Oklahoma. I … Read the rest
OK, it’s in the Bible. So I believe it. John said, “God is love.” And he (and other apostles, too) also wrote of the many ways God loves us humans. Plus, all you gotta do, to know that’s true, is … Read the rest
You had a lot of things to do today. Right? Of course. Everybody, who leads a normal life that requires sustenance, had a busy day. So, I won’t take a lot of your time. This is just a little nudge … Read the rest
I’ll do it. Yeah, somebody’s gotta keep an eye on ’em. And make sure they’re not fallin’ into decay. Like so many other parts of this land of the less free and brave. And my trusty MacBook will serve as … Read the rest
In a way, you could say that life requires the incrementalism approach. Because you’re not born knowing everything you’ll know or how to do everything you’ll do. And you don’t learn calculus and geometry in first grade. And you don’t … Read the rest
Over 30 years ago I asked the question in a song I wrote on my brand new (at the time) keyboard. How long can it go on? And even though, now, I can listen to the digital keyboard version of … Read the rest
I’ve talked about the Holland–Dozier–Holland songwriting and producing team before when I shared some info about The Supremes and their hit song, “I Hear A Symphony.” And they had another hit, 60 years ago this month, with the song, “Heat … Read the rest
Ok, all seriousness aside. My brain thinks in rhymes. Not 24 hours a day. But certainly every day. My wife will tell you about (or rather ask you to save her from) my daily rhymes. She’s been with me over … Read the rest
It’s summer time. And no doubt you’ve been in the garden yourself, or you know someone who has. Or you’ve been to someplace to get some of the good stuff that comes out of a garden. Right? And I can … Read the rest
Here’s a tough one, even for Christians. God is not currently in charge of this world. And again, Jesus tells us that. Three times! He WILL rule this world one day. But He currently does NOT rule. And the evidence … Read the rest
It’s mostly just social media noise. And not actual conversation. Oh sure, I suppose if you grew up in a home where everyone yelled at each other at the same time, and called it conversation, social media seems just fine … Read the rest
It was fifteen years ago, next month, that some friends of mine attempted to put together and display the largest protest sign ever. The event took place in Golden, Colorado (near Denver) to send a message to the Democratic National … Read the rest
Time travel is real. Before I explain that assertion, I’ll say this. And I’ve said it before, and maybe I’ll say it again sometime. I’ve enjoyed a wide variety of time-travel themed movies and other shows. Because it’s fun to … Read the rest

I hope you get to enjoy an awesome fireworks display, this Independence Day 2023, wherever you live. And I hope you also enjoy the company of family and friends and good food and great fun. And I hope you’ll take … Read the rest
Most every young person has them. Well, I say that as someone who was once a young person who had them. But when I was a young person, the world didn’t seem nearly as hopeless. So, it wasn’t difficult to … Read the rest
With all the randomness in the universe, and our cute, little solar system, it’s a wonder that we can predict the moon phases with such accuracy. But we’re so good at it (and by “we” I mean earthlings) that we … Read the rest

Poodle skirts. Roller skates. Hula hoops. What do they have in common? They were each the latest craze, at some point, back in the 1950’s. Then, you had The Twist, The Pony, and even the Monster Mash. Those were the … Read the rest
