I’ve always been fascinated by history. Not just people and places, but I’m also fascinated by where something came from. Maybe it’s an object or something that happened and I want to know the origin of where it came from. Or perhaps it’s a phrase that we use in our own culture. As you might … Continue reading The Good ‘Ole Days

Opposites Attract
But …. Do they? Sure, Paula Abdul sang the song “Opposites Attract”, but do they? Let’s think about magnets. Yes, these opposites do indeed attract. But not only do the opposites attract, the same like polls will actually push away from each other. The other day I was driving, it was just me and the … Continue reading Opposites Attract
There Are Rules
We live in a society of rules. When rules aren’t followed, the general framework of daily life breaks down. I’m not talking about laws. Laws are different. Laws are written down and more importantly, if laws are not followed, then there are consequences and punishments. Rules are a different breed. No, I don’t know what … Continue reading There Are Rules
Alas, It’s Time
It’s time I accept it. I called destiny – and it did not take my call. Perhaps it’s just not my time. Maybe I wasn’t meant for greatness. Or, greatness in the super hero sense of the word. I think my ordinary life is pretty great. But I had been led to think there was … Continue reading Alas, It’s Time

To Make Your Head Hurt
A while back I wondered about what makes a bad person a “bad person”. Does 1 bad act make someone a “bad person”? If so - how does one redeem themselves? Is the adverse the same? Does 1 good selfless act make someone a “good person”? So many questions? What might be considered a … Continue reading To Make Your Head Hurt
You Are Now Free To Move About the Cabin
Another Slam Bam-Tastik Idea On my personal slice of the WWW, I will admit, I can be a little unrealistic and might even venture into absurdity. But not this time. I was on the ladder repairing drywall on a ceiling and a song came from my playlist that I have always liked: “Waitress in the … Continue reading You Are Now Free To Move About the Cabin
Wild Wild (WaWa) West
I do a bit of work here and there. I travel for work and I take on projects that might last for weeks, even months. Luckily, the last 3 long term projects I’ve worked on have been near a WaWa: Bridgeville and Long Neck in Delaware and presently the WaWa in Cambridge, Maryland. When there … Continue reading Wild Wild (WaWa) West
Everybody Wang Chung Tonight !!!
It appears there will be a new job hitting the NFL soon. There are some jobs in the NFL that you might not know about. I didn’t know that every NFL team had dentists on the sidelines for game days. But that makes sense. While not employed by a team, there is a guy on … Continue reading Everybody Wang Chung Tonight !!!
