Day in day out…here we go again Looney Tunes. I don’t have to say any more than that. And baby boomers all over America can immediately see their favorite cartoon characters. One of my Dad’s favorites was Wile E. Coyote and the Roadrunner. It was easy to watch that cartoon and imagine a coyote clocking in to work each morning. And his whole job … The rest of the story…
Music is for the soul Now, this doesn’t apply to stuff trying to pass itself off as music. Like that heavy beat stuff played inside vehicles and rattles the windows of other vehicles and houses on the street. And that screaming stuff that sounds like spoiled brats throwing temper tantrums. No, only real music is for the soul. And I’m not trying to … The rest of the story…
So, things happen for a reason, eh? Why? Seriously. If things happen for a reason, why is that? Why in the world would that always be true? And I ask because I hear or read that sort of nonsense all the time. But why do I say it’s nonsense? Yeah, if things happen for a reason, why do I oppose that idea? I … The rest of the story…
Are you wishing your life away and you don’t even know it? Maybe it wasn’t today. But maybe it was yesterday. And you got up still feeling sleepy. And before you even finished your first cup of sunshine you said “Boy, I’ll be glad when this day is over.” Sound familiar? Because if it does, it’s a form of wishing your life away. And … The rest of the story…
Are you better off than others? And, by the way, it’s OK to be better off than others. So, don’t lay any guilt on yourself if and when you get more or have more than somebody else. It’s just how life works. Because even though we’re all created equal, in value, we’re not equal in opportunities and skills. Despite what certain people would like … The rest of the story…
You’re running out of time I’ve mentioned, before, how my Dad was a runner. And he was a health nut before being a health nut was cool. He bought a juicer over 50 years ago. And I remember being the only kid in our house who enjoyed the juices he and my step-mom would make. Plus, Dad would buy produce and baked goods from … The rest of the story…
Life makes sense Nuh-uh. Uh-huh. Does not. Does, too. You’re dense. No, you’re dense. Ha! I’m rubber. And you’re glue. Bounces off me. And sticks to you. Oh yeah! Well, you’re stupid to infinity. Too late. That bounces off me and sticks to you. Oh yeah! Yeah! Well, you don’t even remember what I said. Yes, I do. You said life makes sense. And … The rest of the story…
Pondering brotherly love on the longest day It’s Summer Solstice time. The longest daylight day of the year. And I know you’re probably out frantically buying your last minute Solstice gifts, the Solstice tree, and all your yummy Solstice treats. But relax. Because it’s the longest day. So, you’ll have plenty of time to pause and read my story of brotherly love that faded … The rest of the story…
Your Cliché is as old as dirt It’s ironic how many people claim the moniker of “new age.” Because so much of what they say is just cliché. And worse than that, many of those clichés are almost as old as the Earth. But I know why they say what they say. Even if they don’t know. A new age cliché is just another … The rest of the story…
Why would you want to fail early? Or at all? Yeah, it came up again. And again. Yesterday and today. I saw more entrepreneurs and “influencers” sharing that silly fail early stuff on social media. And I sure hope you’re not buying it. Because it might make a “cool” soundbite, but it’s not a strong position to take in this mean ol’ world. It … The rest of the story…
