Random thoughts, life lessons, hopes and dreams
Mondays are the hardest days for me and this blog. I like posting on Monday, because it avoids having too many posts in a row. Also, since I usually have abundant free time on Friday and Saturday nights (that’s the way I like it, by the way) I have plenty of time to research and... Continue Reading →
It’s been over a year since I uploaded a photo to Flickr. Prior to September 2017, I was a fairly regular contributor to that photo-sharing platform. I had, and I still have i.e. I still pay for, a Pro account, but it’s been quiet at my place. That may be changing, but I’m not sure... Continue Reading →
I had a draft of a post for today. I opened it up on Saturday night, thinking I’d peck away at it while West Virginia (WVU) and Texas traded the lead back and forth in an important Big-12 Conference game. OK, important if you’re a fan of football or an alumnus of WVU or Texas.... Continue Reading →

While the title could be the one-liner for today, I prefer: “You snooze, you lose.” Or perhaps, “The early bird gets the worm.” Or maybe, “Don't put off until tomorrow what you can do today.” On the other hand, sometimes, we need a nap. Last week, Linda G. Hill announced the #SoCS Badge contest. I... Continue Reading →
In well over 900 blog posts, I have never turned No Facilities over to another person. I’m not going quite that far today, but, as the title suggests, this post is off the beaten path for this blog. It’s educational – which happens sometimes. It’s longer than normal – which happens sometimes, and I hope... Continue Reading →
In accordance with the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) the regulation which inspired me to get off my virtual butt and publish this statement, I will try to keep this plain and simple to understand. You should understand that, due to regulations like GDPR and some stuff the folks in California are passing or already... Continue Reading →
