Happy Hour Friday
Happy Hour Friday is a thing I've been doing ever since the COVID pandemic, or Friday the 6th of March, 2020. Today will be #197. We've only missed seven dates in the four years.

2023: a Review
For the fourth year in row we have the worst year ever. Let's get into it. 2020Â because of the worldwide pandemic was declared the worst year ever. I have documentation. 2021 however, got worse. Because of the insertion of lying as a legitimate tool of the elite. Because, well, that's just the way people … Continue reading 2023: a Review
Winter Dreams
This is the time for Winter Dreams. Okay, maybe they are phantasies; but I do think they began as dreams during the night, in the deep recesses of my mind.

Against All Odds: I’m Rich
Well, that depends. Because whether or not I am is relative to what metric you're using. In other words, compared to who, what, and when. AGAINST ALL ODDS is also an often used and popular trope in books and movies. Moreover, one of my favorites. Because I'm delusional? That sounds like a shrink question. Let's get into … Continue reading Against All Odds: I’m Rich
Security or Adventure: Thunder Pass
Sunday's writing prompt from WordPress was: Are you seeking security or adventure? Which is a good question worth thinking/writing about. However, it reminded me of a chapter in my last book Election 2016 wherein I titled a short chapter "Thunder Pass". Because, as I saw things then, that was one way of looking at the choice … Continue reading Security or Adventure: Thunder Pass

A full-blooded Apache and ruthless killer. However, he's "so cool." He goes by the name of Crow. Crow likes women and won't kill … Continue reading Stranger In Paradise: Jesse Stone
