Back in 2013 (hard to believe that’s already ten years ago) I challenged myself to write rhymes for kids 100 days in a row. And I met that challenge. I received a lot of positive feedback for most of the rhymes. And I didn’t get any negative feedback. Which is good. Because there would have been serious repercussions. Just kidding (sorta). One of the … The rest of the story…
Ok, I’m gonna talk about mosaic art. And I’m not gonna talk about Mosaic law. So, you don’t have to be nervous that I’m gonna somehow tie these two subjects together. But first, what is mosaic art? Well, most art sources will tell you something like: “Mosaic art is the decoration of a surface with small pieces of material called tesserae. Material is typically … The rest of the story…
A guy named John had a revelation. And not your average, everyday, ordinary revelation. This was THE revelation to beat all revelations. And some say it’s all gonna come true. Personally, I believe there’s an extremely good chance they’re right. But I don’t believe that it’s set in stone. Because set in stone means it MUST happen. But what is “it?” And why “must” … The rest of the story…
What has the potential for too much air noise along with serious temperature and humidity problems? You guessed it! Tiny zones. And who hasn’t awaken from a nightmare filled with those? Right? Tiny zones are like pushing 10 pounds of air through 1 pound of ductwork. Yeah, you’re only gonna have problems when you try to force a fixed amount of air through tiny … 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…
Phrases. Short sentences. Sound bites. You don’t have to make hour-long speeches to discover how truth is hate to those who hate the Truth. And, YES, people DO hate the Truth. Especially the absolute kind. And truth is hate, to them, because they want to deflect it. For example, the Earth is relatively young. Yeah, no more than 10,000 years old. And probably as … The rest of the story…
Apparently it all started in a “gentleman’s club.” So, as you might expect, there is some controversy involved. Wait. What was that? You think I’m talking about a strip joint?! Far be it from me to stoop to such levels. No! I’m talking about the gentleman’s club where the Star Spangled Banner got its start. So, get your mind on the Star Spangled Banner … The rest of the story…
I’ve been unaware of angels, on Earth, for my whole life. And I mean the real ones. Not the little kids that moms call “my angel.” No. I mean the ones I might have even unwittingly entertained. And I’ve entertained hundreds of thousands of people over the years. But apparently it’s easy to be unaware of angels. Which I find odd. Especially since, according … The rest of the story…
It was a cold day in February. I was “on the road.” And, believe it or not, bad things were going on in the world. Yeah, I know. With all the world peace we enjoy these days, that’s difficult to even imagine. Thankfully bad things are a thing of the past. I’m so grateful, that over the past 36 years, especially, human beings have … The rest of the story…
Just heard a song on the sound system of this coffee shop. “Tears in Heaven.” And I remembered the sad news that went with it. On March 20th, 1991, Eric Clapton’s 4-year-old son, Conor, died after falling from the 53rd-floor window of a New York City apartment. Eric dealt with the grief of his son’s death by isolating himself for a while. And eventually … The rest of the story…
