Storytelling is something that is as old as man. Before written languages were developed and taught to the masses storytelling was the only way to pass down history. Why I seem to be obsessed with trying out storytelling is a mystery to me. That is what this post is all about.

It’s hard to imagine that the above was once cutting-edge technology. Looking back from a hundred years from now, I wonder what people will think the equivalent is today? Continue reading The Industrial Revolution
I think it is time to bring our educational institutions into the 21st century. It seems that not a lot has changed in that area since my high school years back in the 1960s, except that none of us had backpacks then, and we spent more time in the classroom. This post is about the first thing that needs to change in this area.

I’m going to put on my fiscal conservative hat here and try to convince you that class-war is a losing proposition. That in my mind means Bernie Sanders has it fundamentally wrong. That is what this post is all about.

I just ran across this statistic from a medical professional website recently. Refuting that absurd claim is what this post is all about.

As I remember it many in the religious community at that time in 1970 thought Jesus Christ Superstar was sacrilegious. But it might just be the primary reason I returned to religion. That is what this post is all about.

I love the title of this post. It came from my friends at Reimagining The Future. What do we do when automation has finally eliminate the need for humans to do mundane mind boring tasks? That’s what this post is all about.

Welcome to another Abstract Realism post for this artsy Saturday. I am continuing to hone my skills so this one is still not quite what I want, but it is getting there. Couldn’t go wrong with the subject matter though. Continue reading The Beauty Of Quebec
This is yet another post in my “Then N’ Now” series. It is about how I saw the world in the 1940s to the 1960s and how I see it now.

With all the distracted drivers out there, we need to get them out from behind the wheel. That is what this post is all about.

There is so much disinformation flying around today that it is becoming a threat to our form of democracy. Why that is and who is responsible for reigning it in? That is what this post is all about.

I really don’t think our current state of being in the U.S. is desirable to any of us living outside the beltway. I believe there is an underlying hunger for all of us to connect with each other. That is what this post is all about.

For this Sunday’s post on looking back five years I thought I would give you an update on rural Internet service.

For this Artsy Saturday I give you a piece of glass art I found recently at the Ft. Wayne Indiana Museum of Art. It is a piece from Micheal Estes Taylor. It will soon be included in my new site … Continue reading Glass Art
Most of you Baby Boomers out there likely know where the title of this post came from. Even though I use the film as the header above that is not what this post is about. Instead, it is about how we are giving up our country and maybe the world, just to get a few dollars more into our pockets

Whether you want to admit it or not, everyone has a dark side. If they didn’t, they wouldn’t be human. In this post I am going to reveal some parts of my dark side! Why am I doing that? Because I am an idiot! 🤣

The US has been a primarily a consumer driven economy for more than a hundred years now and I kinda think Enough is Enough. That is what this post is all about.

I have been doing some serious thinking lately. I know it is serious because my brain is getting hot. It is a good thing that I don’t have much hair up there anymore, that lets the heat dissipate better. Anyway, this post is about America’s heritage and how we need to rescue it. This is going to be one of my soapbox/philosophical speeches so hang on.
Continue reading “America’s Heritage”For this Sunday’s Look Back let’s look at the MAGA/Evangelical cult. I never would have dreamed that U.S. Christianity would have taken the fatal hit it has when I wrote the above words five years ago. Yeah, we had the Tea Party back then that was identified as a radical right fringe but for the most part they were not identified as a primarily Christian organization. The phrase “Make America Great Again” and “Evangelical” are now combined into MAGA/Evangelical and are irrefutably joined at the hip. I’m sure the roots of today’s cult were from the Tea Party but it … Continue reading Looking Back – U.S. Christianity
For this Artsy Saturday I give you the Frank Lloyd Wright house near Springfield Ohio. I have been trying out about a dozen apps to find just what I want. This picture is a combination of two different ones. Looks kinda nice in a Van Gogh type way, but I need more practice yet. I give this about a 50/50 between abstract and realism.
