A year of Perspectives
I have tried through these perspectives to share on the idea that looking at life from a different perspective can change the way you feel about life, change your mindset. I realize that most of what I have said is attempts at being humorous, which hopefully can help brighten our days, and let us share…

Holiday Poem
Twas the night before Christmas and all thru Heron Crest, Not a creature was stirring, even the ones in their nests. The cold was unbearable, the roads still a mess, But the excitement was there, And Bob finally tried to rest. He did not dream of candy canes surrounded with sugar plums, Instead of a…

What’s up Doc?
My daughter took my granddaughter(4ys old) to the doctor for an annual checkup along with my grandson(2ys old). My granddaughter announced to the doctor, “I eat carrots”, which happens to be one of her favorite statements, but added, “so that I won’t have to get contacts for my eyes.” Amazed by this conclusion the doctor…

Many Names
I was called many names, and like most people, some of them were not good. My nicknames were “Kermit” and “G”, other than the obvious use of my initials. For a moment, I want to talk about writing. I think that I can say that I have written a lot, but it has always been…

Only a Name?
I used to live near the intersection of two streets, one named Nixon and the other named Bluett. It is in Michigan and you can now google it. If I had a cell phone back then I would still have a picture of it. Bet the guy that named these streets had no clue the…

To Name or Not To Name
The names of roads and cities never cease to make me wonder, “Who comes up with these?” Palm Springs is in the desert. The only reason there are any palms is they bring in water. Bug Tussle is in Oklahoma. Maybe those are just really big bugs. The city of Loveladies is in New Jersey…

Going Techy
Today’s technology is nothing new. Well, the ideas are not new, just the fact that we use technology for certain ideas is new. I would like to share a few common usage technologies that we have today and clarify what we called them a few years ago. Ok truth, more than a few years ago.…
