    Sociopathy, Normal Society, and Abnormal People – Thoughts from June 7, 2025

    I’m excited to talk about sociopathy. The reason for my excitement is the book Sociopath by Patric Gagne Ph.D. I finished listening to it recently and connected to her story.

    Not Talking, Testing Beds, and Collecting Figures – Thoughts from June 3, 2025

    The day after my surgery, I thought it would be a good idea to look at beds. I did some research on beds online, but I wanted to feel them in person. Our old mattress was getting painful to sleep on. It was only slightly better than sleeping on the floor. All the mattresses I…

    My First Surgery – Thoughts from June 1, 2025 – Part 1

    I used to have times when I struggled to find subjects for my Thoughts papers. Recently, I’ve had to make lists of subjects to write about, so I don’t forget things. When I started writing these back in 1991, I had less happening in my life. Who would guess I had more going on in…

    It has been so long since I wrote my thoughts, I had to make a list of things I haven’t written about. First on the list is finishing painting the house. Let me say that again for those in the back. We finished painting the house! The last thing we did was put up new…
