Yesterday was a busy, busy day! I never even got time to come on-line and post anything but I managed to get a ton of stuff done elsewhere. I picked up a major sponsor for my video project, beautifulamerica.us and another video contributor. On the surface, this project appears to be moving along... Sign in to see full entry.

Snow Flakes Or Corn Flakes?
Call it a mean spell, but I accidentally found a new topic for my book. All through the ages, 'generations' have been named. You have the 'Greatest Generation,' the 'Baby Boomers,' 'Generation X,' and 'Generation Y,' in no particular order. In 'Relax,' I've been talking about some of the problem...

Packing For A Trip
I had three different doctor appointments today, each one was about 40 miles away from the next one, so I spent most of the day on the road. I've had skin cancer issues for about five years now and since I'm much improved, they are going at it full tilt. I had a biopsy on a scabby lump on the back... Sign in to see full entry.

PTSD - Up Close And Personal
Over in my story/book section, I began to talk about PTSD or Post Traumatic Stress Disease. As I will explain in the last part of that three part section, I was a 'victim' of PTSD, and it affected every part of my life for several years. After my initial injury, all was well until one fateful day... Sign in to see full entry.

June 6th, 1944
Before the day gets too far along, I want to remember the 72nd anniversary of D-Day, the turning point of WW2. Although scared to death, most went forward through withering enemy fire with a dead fear nerve. I couldn't even begin to imagine. Thank you for your sacrifice. I was lucky enough to have...

One Long Production Meeting
A steady light drizzle canceled our racing event last night but our production team meeting lasted almost four hours as everyone else went home. We have a lot of creative people on the team and they suggested several new ideas we might try as this new venture moves forward. As they were leaving, I... Sign in to see full entry.

Busy Doing Stuff That Relaxs Me!
Fridays and Saturdays used to be extremely busy days for me in my former life as a sports columnist and race reporter. I also ran the photo booth at one of the biggest race tracks in Michigan and ran the live Internet stream there. All I do now is run the live stream and to be honest, I show up at...

Pick A Project
Kabu was mentioning my future projects in a comment. Here's the latest on that stuff. Earlier this morning, I had my last "must attend" visit with my cardiologist and was told that I am indeed, a miracle patient. I've lost a total of 48 pounds since late January and everything looks fantastic in his... Sign in to see full entry.

Giddy, Absolutely Giddy
I am almost giddy with the way things are flowing for me right now. I've been writing virtually all day on three different projects, with only ten minute breaks every hour and I've managed to rack up over 8,000 words. Since Monday, I've got a huge number and it feels great. I know days and weeks... Sign in to see full entry.

Munchausen Syndrome
Kabu mentioned Munchausen Syndrome in a comment so I will include a brief (750 to 950 words) mention of it along with its 'brother' syndrome Munchausen by Proxy in my book. The 'syndrome' variety is where someone pretends to have a disease or severe medical issue for the sympathy it generates and in... Sign in to see full entry.
