I’m writing to you from the heart of the nation, now. Our respiratory experiment, on the Gulf coast, is finished. And I know the high level of humidity, there, was not the solution. So, after leaving the arid climate of Colorado (which was very difficult because it’s my favorite place) and the humid southeast, we hope the “baby bear porridge” of Kansas will be … The rest of the story…
Because it helps burn fat. Yeah, that’s it. That’s the reason. Wait. No. It’s because it can help lower the risk of type 2 diabetes. Yeah, that’s definitely…uh, wait. Nope, it’s because it can help improve energy levels. Aw, who am I kidding? I just love the ambiance, aroma, and comfort during wakey, wakey time. But then again, a lot happens after wakey, wakey … The rest of the story…
Unless you’ve got your hands over your eyes and ears you know there’s a lotta trouble in this world. It’s worse than I’ve ever seen it. But there’s been massive trouble on this planet my whole life. And it was here for all of my parents’ lives. And my grandparents’ lives, too. Et cetera (that’s Latin for “you better believe it, buster). So, even … The rest of the story…

But I’m sure you don’t need all the gory details. Because you trust me and you know I wouldn’t lie to you unless it was absolutely necessary. Right? Alright. Now that we’re … The rest of the story…
Too bad Neil Young is such a fool when it comes to what’s truly important. Because, over the years, I’ve enjoyed a lot of his music. I remember listening to “Harvest” on my drive back to Texas, after my summer vacation in Kansas and before my senior year in high school. And his song, “Harvest Moon,” really strikes a chord (pun intended) in the … The rest of the story…
The article started out with a picture that included this title: “An artist’s illustration traces the long, cosmic path of a fast radio burst that originated in distant galaxies and reached Earth 8 billion years later.” So, right from the git-go the writer made it difficult to take the report seriously. “But Tony,” you might say, This “fast radio burst is one of the … The rest of the story…
If ever there was somebody who could tell you how to make your mark in music, Willie Nelson sure could. And, even though I’ve never been a fan, I don’t deny he’s had a lot of influence and staying power. One of his cowboy songs came to mind this morning as I thought about events taking place in the world right now. You probably … The rest of the story…
I set the screensaver, on my laptop, to the “word of the day” option. It actually shows multiple words flowing across the screen. And this morning it paused on a negligence definition.
