After many months of study and experiments I have currently settled on two versions of being artsy at RJsCorner. I have also renamed the general category to Outsider Art. This post will kinda explain what all this means. Continue reading Outsider Art… And Other Such Things
Yes, you can tell the current version of artificial intelligence to write a paper for you on just about any subject, and it will provide something for you. But it will most often look like it was written by a dull person, maybe even Spock-like. I will clue you students out there that most teachers now have an app to tell them the likelihood that … Continue reading AI Makes The Dumb, Dumber…
One of my favorite “laid-back” hobbies is my collection of quotes I have saved over the years. I have literally thousands of them. I haven’t used them as much as I wanted, and I was recently thinking of just dropping them. But I think I have found a place for them in a 2H2025 version of RJsCorner, which centers on “life on the margins”. At … Continue reading About Those Quotes.
Contrary to what the picture above says, I don’t really think Wallace, Idaho is the center of the universe, although I will admit that it is a pretty town. This picture was taken in 2009 during our month-long vacation throughout the west and southwest. But since almost 70% of Idaho voted for the current Oval Office Occupant (CO3) in 2024, I hope that at least … Continue reading Happy 4th
I just finished a book entitled “Embracing Retirement” by Gary Tretwell. It gave me some new insight into how to live my final years on this earth.

Here is a … Continue reading I Need A Brain Duster

Singlehood is a new term for me, but I have lived much of my life in that mode. I have coined a phrase “LOMO – Life On My Own” to describe it. In my prime days, it was called being a bachelor. Continue reading About Singlehood….
My 2025 goal for RJsMosaic of Life is to fill in important holes in my life experience. To that end, here is one of those times. But, it absolutely needs a life story to explain it. One of the things associated with my deafness is that I have only a visual sense of balance. If I close my eyes and try to walk, I will … Continue reading Mosaic of Life #155 – Snowbound

I am now pretty deep into becoming artsy, but until recently, I have not bothered to try to learn the things that could make me a true artist. Yeah, I have read a few books on various art subjects, but I have up until recently been “flying by the seat of my pants”. It’s time to really focus in on what artsy really means.

I have been working hard at letting go of things that negatively affect my mood. Of course, politics is a prime example, but it goes beyond that. I want to forget all of those things and just live the life I have left in a “Life of Riley” mode. Continue reading The Life Of Riley

There is nothing quite so artsy as the cars of the 1930s, especially those found in the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Museum in Auburn, Indiana. Continue reading Clothesline Art – Another Auburn Closeup
