The Spark of Consciousness
What is the essence of man? Is the ego the true essence of man? No. The ego is the essence of one’s personality; it is how each individual interfaces with other people and everything else in this world. However the ego is not the essence of an individual. The essence of an individual is that spark...

Translating "Woman Speak"
There have been many books written throughout the years about the differences between men and women. They all extol their reasons for the apparent differences between the sexes. Men are from this planet, while women come from another; women are emotional in nature, while men are rooted in the mental...

Beer Goggles
Guys like to be guys. We guys do this by going out for beers with each other from time to time. This is a male bonding ritual that goes back to medieval times. Now we all agree that beer is cold and very tasty after a hard day of work, but there is one draw back; beer will get you drunk if you have...

The Lifetime Movie Network
Well, its finally here! Football season is upon us. It has been a very long lonely time since the NFL draft. You see, I am addicted to football. I don't even play fantasy football, (that would make me a geek) but I am NFL ready 24-7. I know there are many people out there sighing to themselves (all...

Who Is That Man Behind the Curtain
Today is my first anniversary as a member of Blogit. I am happy to say that I feel I have grown not only as a writer, but as a person, due to my association with the Blogit family. I do not use the word "family" lightly here. We are an entwined group here, of writers, and readers; crafting our...

Musings
The most beautiful sunsets, occur after the ugliest of storms. Your best friends, are your longest friends. Life doesn't suck after 50. Sometimes you gotta admit, you got just what you deserve. You know you have to work on being patient when you run into too many red lights. Being humble is not the...

Getting Antsy
I’m starting to feel better. The sun is shining, the flowers are blooming, and I do think I am getting better. Sad to say I have been in a deep depression the last few months. It has been a long time since the NFL draft last April, and I have found it hard to go on. But I endured, bucked up, and...

Mike's Petting Zoo
It is nice to know that you are wanted. There is nothing better than knowing that when you get home after a hard day’s work there are going to be a host of people waiting for you to walk through the door. Well I am a lucky guy because that is the world I live in… except the folks waiting for me are...

High Style
People say that the hair cut makes the man. If this is true, don’t expect to see me on the cover of GQ anytime soon. Not that you would anyway mind you, the clothes I wear (shorts, t-shirt), suit the climate (Hot, and sunny) I live in. I digress, what I’m trying to say is that I am not very...

Playing "Big"
I was the middle of three sons. We were all one year apart. We were a constant pain in the butt for my parents. Because we were only a year apart in age, we were always competing. Competing with each other (meaning we fought a lot), and competing together against the neighborhood kids. We kids would...
