Sometimes we need to be saved from the emotional turmoil that is caused by the disease called “life”. Or perhaps that is what we have always done and will always do. We fill our days with activities that take our minds off the fact that we are gradually decaying blobs of biological material. Work, hobbies, […]
We need to talk about this living legend thing. I mean really, there are those that are remembered and have a legacy that will extend to the ends of humankind. Neil Armstrong, Abe Lincoln, Hank Aaron, Big Bird, Johnny Cash, Madeleine Albright, Ray Charles, Winston Churchill, and Julia Child all made it, why can’t I?

I’ve been talking about the joys and challenges of retirement for a while, but must now sidetrack to complain about my recent experience with Facebook advertising. You don’t have to be old in order to annoy people, some people start before they can vote. Maybe it’s just a natural progression. From Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, and

Firecrackers were THE most illegal and at the same time most sought after item in our neighborhood. The only drugs we knew of were aspirin and cod liver oil. No local hood was gonna ‘bust a cap in yo haid’ to steal your dope, they would much prefer to kick your ass and take your
