about

My blog is a creation of an overactive, creative mind, dive in if you dare. I am a scientist at heart but that does not stop me from looking at the many other things that are fun to think about. Occasionally I will deal with current issues and offer my insight. Sometimes I just sit down and write with no idea where I am going. Like I said, I have a very fertile mind and love to dig into serious issues. If this is not you, ifyou are not curious about most everything you see, stay away from my blog.

  • No better place to chat than around the campfire

    Image generated by AI Since the beginning of human communication, we have exchanged ideas and thoughts from generation to generation. In the beginning I believe that the campfire was the place of choice to do this. Stories were told, advice was given and many lessons were taught to the young and innocent. In the evening,…

  • Searching for feelings

    I’ll use an old metaphor to begin; LIFE IS A BUMPY ROAD. Days, weeks, months and even years go by with nothing but good feelings. Then suddenly something bad happens. Someone you know and maybe love has some severe medical issues, you wreck your car, you have a fire occur at your home…oh my, this…
