• Fires, Professor Sprout, and the NME Charts – Thoughts from September 7 and 8, 2024

  

  September 7, 2024 There are flames in the hills near our house. Only a freeway separates our house from the evacuation area. Patti is home and freaking out. She can still see the flames from our house. My sixth-grade teacher showed a picture from his front yard of the smoke billowing up as if from…

• Drugs and Fairies in a Capitalist Society – Thoughts from April 19 and 23, 2023

  

  April 19, 2023 I just heard on the radio someone referencing 4/20 tomorrow. It’s a pot head holiday. I think it’s the same station that plays Bob Marley at 4:20 in the afternoon. They made a joke about hot boxing a taxi. I understand these references, but don’t find them funny. Marijuana has never been…

• Christmas Games – Thoughts from December 20 and 21, 2022

  

  December 20, 2022 Patti came to work with me today. On the way, we talked the whole time. Sometimes we put on a podcast and listen to that, but we were both Chatty Cathies and never really listened to anything but each other. It’s good to know that after 25 years of marriage we can…

• Owning a House – Thoughts from July 23 to 25, 2003

  

  July 23, 2003 After much drama and change, I am working at the Assessor’s office now. I should learn a great deal about owning property, etc., which will help in my NEW HOME! Yes, last last Saturday, we closed our loan. It should have been earlier, but there were several delays. It’s a good feeling,…
