The Coronavirus Effect (CVE) is in essence a negative energy effect. It's impossible to quantify or prove, but bear with me. Because, after looking at all the CDC (Center for Disease Control) statistics regarding Death in America, combined with the current stats and particulars of COVID-19's attack on our population - I've come up with … Continue reading The Coronavirus Effect

Life and death matters, part II
Life and death matters, part II will focus on the current and on going health crisis. Because what's more important than your health. Right? Rising is my favorite source of news and current affairs. I especially enjoy Krystal Ball's take on matters of life and death - which is today's current health crisis. If the … Continue reading Life and death matters, part II
Love, lighthouses, and leaf blowers
CHAPTER 20 (love) “Hello, Bobbie, how are ya?” “Well, thank you.” I sat on the sofa, and Bobbie moved from behind her desk with her yellow legal pad in hand. She sat down in the straight-backed chair. “Let’s see, did you come today with a goal in mind that we can work towards?” “Actually … … Continue reading Love, lighthouses, and leaf blowers
The Foke Woke, part II
This note's for for you Elizabeth Warren, and all the rest of you Foke Woke. Neil Young's song This note's for you, on his 1988 album "Neil Young and the Blue Notes", mocks pretension. Which, I have to say, defines the Foke Woke population. The song takes dead aim at the advertising industry and corporations. Moreover, … Continue reading The Foke Woke, part II
Foke Woke
Foke Woke is a phrase I came up with in a dream state. Meaning the "woke" culture is fake, and made up of folks. Indeed, misguided folks, like Krystal Ball, whom I called out in my previous post. Maybe self love? Krystal and I share the same birthday - the day of "Contentious Conviviality". We … Continue reading Foke Woke
Calling out Krystal Ball
I'm calling out Krystal Ball, and her sidekick, Saagar Enjeti, on Rising. Projection is what it's called in psych lingo. Saagar, is in the habit of using the phrase, "Astro-turf" (= shallow thinking/analysis) when referencing others in the "main stream media" (MSM). Krystal, seems to be oblivious to her own advantages, i.e. "privilege", when it comes … Continue reading Calling out Krystal Ball
Failing to learn from losing
Failing to learn from losing is a chapter title in my recent book Election 2016: The Great Divide, The Great Debate. Actually a partial title. The full title is "A Sobering Weekend: Failing to Learn from Losing" (pg. 109). Last night's Democratic debate reminded me of that chapter. The sub-title is, "April 12, 2016". Empathy is just … Continue reading Failing to learn from losing
The Magpie Cafe, part II
Yesterday, two days after Valentine's Day, I walked when the weather had warmed. The usual - past the site of the future Magpie Cafe - and lo, the birds had begun nesting behavior - repairing winter damage, preening and posing, chatting, and yes - kissing. Call me crazy for asking, but how do they know? The … Continue reading The Magpie Cafe, part II
Snowbound, screens, & self care
On the cusp of the New Hampshire primary, here in Colorado I've been snowbound. It has snowed six of the last eight days. Back-in-the-day (forty-nine years ago to the day), such a barrage of snow would not have fazed me. In fact it would have invigorated me. Then, I was living in a cabin in … Continue reading Snowbound, screens, & self care
The Magpie Cafe
The Magpie Cafe is a dream. Ever since I began working in the restaurant industry some fifty years ago - I've imagined having a cafe that integrated where I lived with that which I love. Mostly, of all things - I love people and conversation, good food and spirits, music, wood and wild country. So … Continue reading The Magpie Cafe
