Crossroads.

For centuries mankind had no need to take notes, make lists, or prioritize anything. A list would surely contain the following…. Find food. Find water. Get wood for fire. Shelter. No need to write that down. The struggle was real and never ending. No argument about the validity of those four things either. Through the…

Siegfried and Roy….

Remember them? They made one hell of a living in Las Vegas, using magic and wild animals. It is so hard to find a use of the word flamboyant, but that’s what they were, and these tigers and lions were their meal ticket…. Right up until they weren’t. Turns out you can’t trust wild animals.…

Claymation.

Which outdated technology do you miss the most, and why? Why? Do we really want to live in a world where we can’t distinguish reality from really good AI?

Cold Hard Truths.

No Contact.

Is it a trend? Maybe it’s a movement. Whatever it is, it isn’t new. I remember some family members who went the better part of a decade without talking to each other, and way back then it had a different name…. estrangement. I don’t think there was a real need to change the term, but…

I say over and over, Start keeping a journal, because we are currently living in a time that scholars will be studying for a very long time. Tonight is another entry in that journal. Tonight, at the White House Correspondents Dinner, there was yet another attempt on our President’s life. That’s attempt number three if…

A Hardened Heart.

God has a plan and no amount of effort or excuses will ever alter that plan in any way, and yet the enemy continues trying…. I remember the Old Testament story of Moses and Pharaoh, and God’s demand spoken through His servant, Let My people go. Now we know that the original request was to…
