Random thoughts, life lessons, hopes and dreams
Slightly over 40 years ago, when I was in graduate school, “Business Ethics” wasn’t a separate course, but it was a section that was covered in several courses. A wide variety of topics were covered in these sections, but there was always one caveat – as young men and women eager to enter the job... Continue Reading →
It’s time for Linda G. Hill’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday, and recent news sets up a bar rant that might work for this prompt: “Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is ‘dom.’ Use it as a word, or find a word that starts or ends with it. Have fun!” If we were having... Continue Reading →
If you’re a regular reader, you might be expecting to see some doors from Pittsburgh. They will come soon enough, but I thought I’d finish the doors I collected while Faith was driving me from Goshen, Connecticut to Farmington, stopping for every door in between. I should mention that for all of the doors in... Continue Reading →
Ask anybody that knows me well and they will agree that I have a knack for saying the wrong thing. Perhaps it’s the right thing at the wrong moment, perhaps it was intended to be a good thing and just came out wrong, but perhaps it was just the wrong thing altogether. I’d like to...

We’ve established that I would rather drive the nine hours to Pittsburgh than fly, but I wouldn’t rule out being transported there when that becomes an option.

Linda sets the stage for this week’s conversation by giving us: “Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is ‘flower/flour.’ Use one, use both, it’s totally up to you. Enjoy!” She’s kidding, right? If we were having... Continue Reading →
Continuing our journey east from the Goshen Fair and up Rt-4 in search of doors, we have one more stop to make – Collinsville, Connecticut. I will probably offend a few people (at least one that I know of) as I quote from Wikipedia: “Collinsville is a village and census-designated place (CDP) in the town... Continue Reading →
If you follow this blog, you know that I don’t often stop anywhere near the one line that I have to offer. Today is different. But still, to keep the “Dan doesn’t understand the rules” streak going, I have a few one-liners that tell the story: “We made that trip.” “We were at that game.”... Continue Reading →
I’m not sure if this is a universal thing, or if it’s just my inbox that has been invaded by people who have no regard for my time. I’ve gotten used to survey requests after every leg of every flight and train ride. I’ve gotten used to Amazon and other online retailers pestering me to... Continue Reading →
