Changes

YEAR OF CHANGES I want this year to be one of changes. I have not been right sitting in this non-insulated apartment with all kinds of quirks, trying to believe I would have a home business when it always bombs and is just more money. So I have been busy on my Fix-It List and running around making... Sign in to see full entry.

A Wistful Business Idea

I thought of a new product I would market if I could only have any means to make it happen: Chocogators. Can you imagine it, Chocogators: Dark Chocolate formed in the shape of an alligator 3-4 inches long and filled with various flavors like chocolates in a box. These would come in flat boxes and be...

Grilled Just As Good as Shish Ka Bobs

Today I wanted my Shish Ka Bobs again, but did not have the time or energy to cut them up, spear them all and grill them. So I grilled yellow squash, tomatoes, chicken thighs, and shrimp, all separately and ate them on a plate. It was just as good and less work! I seasoned the squash and grape...

More Thoughts on Lincoln and Goth

Since President Lincoln died ending slavery; I must conclude that he was a major force that ended this travesty in the U.S. He may have had other varying thoughts and agendas, but I feel he was a most significant leader in this effort.

"Lincoln" and Related Thoughts

Today I saw the historical version of Abraham Lincoln's push to pass the Amendment against slavery in the U.S. It was a tremendous movie that I highly recommend; it seemed real. One of this nations greatest heros really hustled and maneuvered to get that amendment passed in America. Amazing how... Sign in to see full entry.

God Bless The Cliffhangers

God Bless The Cliffhangers At the very last minutes on the edge of the cliff, the Senate and Congress come through and keep us from eating Ramen Noodle every night because many Americans can't pay our taxes and have anything left for ourselves.

General Schwarzkopf --The Passing of a Legend and an Era

I only really learned more about the General in retrospect, but have been wounded by the passing of a legend who co-fought the shortest and most successful wars of this country. The Dessert Shield and Dessert Storm wars where the soldier was considered and supplied, even given uniforms that would... Sign in to see full entry.

The Gun Fiasco

This Sandy Hook nightmare of those beautiful smiling children and heroic teachers being mercilessly gunned down by a deranged mental case is changing my view on guns. I have to wonder if the emaciated young man had a better diet alone, much less psychiatric meds, if this could have been averted. His... Sign in to see full entry.

Computer Coincidences

Fixing more of my computer paid off. The tech crew people were a lot nicer and entertaining to talk with. Instead of going to sleep I called my new service to get the slow and freezing computer cleaned. This one was able to let me rest while the work was being done like the other expensive one and a...
