What is the weirdest question anyone has ever asked you?
a guy asked me if anyone had ever told me that I had a cute ass. This was a LONG time ago ... in more recent days I'd have made a joke of it, but at that time I was of such a frame of mind that I felt obliged to "prove"… -
too old for this
what an addiction! the internet, that is. capable of bringing so much of value to the fore, yet providing so much DRECK that needs to be waded through before arriving at the good stuff. it's almost like tacit permissi… -
WHOOP!!!!!!!!!! (de-doo)
today's the BIG DAY in Pennsylvania ... it's the Presidential Primary Elections! WOWZERS!!!!! I give obama and clinton pretty high marks for their behavior ... not much slop-slinging, not much name-calling. They seem… -
things I can't KNOW
I have to say that I admire folks who have faith, though I expect that I should offer a little definition efore I go much further: As I see it, there are basically TWO kinds of faith. The lesser is of the "chauvinistic… -
I really DO have a hobby ...
... but I can't resist the impulse to write this. Just a question that I've been asking myself, and it isn't intended as rhetorical or seeking for a response. Here it is: What do I care about which celebrity endorses … -
funny money
I found a couple of boxes of stuff that I hadn't unpacked after my move from Lancaster to the apartment that I now share with my fiancee. Most of it is the arcana of the past: several carousels of slides taken by my la… -
about me and my ENORMOUS ego
hey ... mark today on your calendar! I prefer not to talk about my "personal" self, but for some reason I feel like I'm on the cusp of something ... cathartic ... and feel some sort of odd compulsion. Mark today on you… -
Dear Ms. Clinton, Mr. McCain, and Mr. Obama
Firstly, Mr. Obama, I don't think of your remarks as "elitist", at least not in such a way as to make you appear different from your opponents. You're just either un-informed or mis-informed. There are families in Penn… -
lower legal drinking age to 18?
I thought I was mistaken. My eyes were playing tricks on me. States are considering lowering the legal age for the consumption of alcohol to 18? How soon we forget. I grew up in New Jersey. When I was 18 the legal d… -
How do you resolve disputes with your significant other?
We discuss. We regularly pass the boundaries set by our individual Comfort Zones and travel that Dark Land in temporary Abject Terror. But we always come home, where the fire is warmer and the comforts more soothing th… -
Technoloy and Stuff
The Modern Age … ain’t it wonderful? Or not? I’m once again in the throes of reconsidering myrelationship with my computer and the internet. I like the computer as a machine for a couple of reasons,among the… -
your health
I'll begin this bit by telling the reader that good nutrition and physical activity are essential for good health. No-one will argue that, right? However, as with almost everything else these days, there are caveats em… -
How do you feel about the world's obsessions with weight, diet and beauty?
entirely TOO MUCH emphasis is currrently being placed on "beauty" as defined by popular culture media. So many, young and not-so-young alike, seem to be so obsessed with being "hot", that it occurs to me that an argume… -
What was the best April Fool's Day prank you've ever pulled?
how's this for an April Fool's Day prank: the proposed economic incentive package! I wonder which of the following generations will get stuck paying for THAT one? On a more serious note ... I dislike April Fool's Day.… -
Should guns be illegal? Why or why not?
this would seem like a controversial issue, but it isn't for me. Not any more. One Sunday afternoon, as I was walking my daughter out to her car for her return trip to her mother's house, I spotted something shiny on t…
