A Snippet from RJsArtsySide
I’ve learned a lot about creativity in the last few years. So, I thought I would give you a sample of those lessons from my other blog at RJsArtsySide. Continue reading A Snippet from RJsArtsySide

My Fortress Of Solitude
Like Superman, I need my Fortress of Solitude. I need a place where I can live life on my own (LOMO) for whatever time I have left on this earth. After four years of trying to create it, I think it is finally done. Continue reading My Fortress Of Solitude
A New Focus…
Several times a year I change the focus of RJsCorner to a new subject. It is presently about being artsy. Starting today is will be about diversity. Continue reading A New Focus…
Just Ordinary People….
For this Sunday I have again decided to pull a post from my legacy blog at RedLetterLiving.net (Click on the logo above to see RLL). It was originally posted 13 years ago, but it seems to be more relevant to today’s version of Christianity We forget to distinguish between history as a record of the elites and history as a record of the people. While … Continue reading Just Ordinary People….
RJsCorner – The Final Frontier
RJsCorner has been about several different things throughout its 17-year history. I truly believe that it has finally evolved into its true purpose, and that is:
Having My Say — Life on the Margins — My Artsy Side
Let’s look at these three topics Continue reading RJsCorner – The Final Frontier
A Melting Pot vs. A Stew….
When I was a kid I often heard that the USA was the great American melting pot. To me that implied that when people came to this country they gave up all their traditions and heritage and merged seamlessly into the American ethic. I was a pretty naive farm boy in my youth so it was years before I realized that the melting pot was … Continue reading A Melting Pot vs. A Stew….
Brain Fog
In my 78th year, brain fog seems to be a common occurence. Some morning I get up and am immediately ready to do some serious writing/blogging right off the bat. And then there are others when I can’t even seem to find my desk. Continue reading Brain Fog
All Religions Are Founded…
“All religions are founded on the fear of the many and the cleverness of the few” — Stendhal (1783-1842) — The more I read about the history of religion the more I can begin to see that it has been a rough and tangled web between the words of Jesus and what we have today. I should not be surprised now that there are 25,000+ … Continue reading All Religions Are Founded…
HMS – My New Plant Stand
I thought someone might appreciate my new artsy plant stand for displaying my ever-increasing plant collection. The stand itself is very artsy. I like that. Continue reading HMS – My New Plant Stand
A Busy Margin
Just in case you haven’t gotten the message before. (I have very busy margins) Continue reading A Busy Margin
Odd One Out
You might notice that there is one green apple among several red ones. It’s kinda symbolic that they are in a crystal bowl. You might say this iconically represents my life. I seem to always be the one that sticks out. I am the green apple. I used to be ashamed of that fact, but now I celebrate it. Continue reading Odd One Out
About Singlehood….
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….
The Life Of Riley
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
The Times, They Are a Changing…
Being a Bob Dylan fan, but only during his folk music years, I thought it appropriate to use his words for this post. I have been posting at RJsCorner for sixteen years now. It’s time to move on. With this post, I want to tell you why. A good part of my corporate world work life was spent fixing processes and building software tools to … Continue reading The Times, They Are a Changing…
Taking A Different Path…
I have decided that starting today, I am pausing my scheduled weekly posts and just writing about what I am feeling each day. That is, I will be treating RJsCorner as what its title says as a daily journal of “Having My Say”. I will put away much of the reference material I have collected for informative stories and just write from my gut. I … Continue reading Taking A Different Path…
