• Thanksgiving Orphans and Thinking Differently from Everyone – Thoughts from November 19 to 28, 2023

  

  November 19, 2023 I found out from Patti that we might be orphans on Thanksgiving. Hopefully, it will keep me from over stuffing myself like I normally do. Except for my last two days off, I’m down in my weight. Holidays have become mainly about eating and drinking more than you normally would. All the…

• Blaring phones and Two Year Old Cats – Thoughts from July 24 and 25, 2023

  

  July 24, 2023 I went into a break room to have my lunch and there was only one other person in there. The volume on her phone was blaring. I stood it as long as I could and asked her to turn it down. She was immediately rude and asked me why she should turn…

• Sitcom Decisions and Nostalgic Nerds – Thoughts from March 18 and 22, 2023

  

  March 18, 2023 I was thinking today about making sitcom decisions. Sitcom decisions mainly use lies to avoid making actual decisions. Lying to your spouse about doing something you forgot to do is a sitcom decision. Characters make decisions in sitcoms purely for comedic purposes. Sitcoms have taught us dangerous and absurd life lessons that…

• Staring at Your Phone – Thoughts from August 23 and 25, 2022

  

  August 23, 2022 I just saw a large gentleman wearing black shorts with white socks that went all the way up his legs until they disappeared into his shorts. What is the use of wearing shorts if you’re going to cover up your legs with socks. Besides the fact that it looks completely ridiculous, it…

• Dream Wedding – Thoughts from August 17 and 20, 2022

  

  August 17, 2022 I was listening to a story where a young man was saying he had not had sex yet. Implied was that he had a goal of having sex and didn’t want to die without having it. It made me think about the goal of having sex for the first time. It is…

• Space Alien – Thoughts from May 3 and 4, 2033

  

  May 3, 2022 I’m listening to a book that is an oral history of The Next Generation and subsequent Star Trek shows. They talked about Deep Space 9 which I never watched. Hearing a description of the show, I don’t think I’ll ever watch it. They talked about spirituality being a part of it, which…

• Seeking Normal – Thoughts from January 16 and April 6, 2013

  

  January 16, 2013 Hello from the future! That statement is going to sound damn silly when I read back on this in 2020, when I’ll be 50. Now I said I’ll be 50! Can I just deny the future? Of course, I can, but when is the last time I listened to myself? I told…

• September 3, 1997 – Thoughts from Life 6

  

  Kings and queens ruling their royal subjects are the substance of fairy tales. Fairy tales are where they need to stay. I don’t want to turn on my television news and hear about a princess who died because, as far as I’m concerned, they are all dead. The days of having royal weddings and other…
