Two unrelated questions tonight, first one is not so serious, second one is. When choosing English Muffins at the grocery store, do you buy/prefer Bayes, or Thomas?? If you don’t know the difference between them, let me know, and I’ll elaborate. Who out there is willing to tell me (via commenting below or private IM) […]

Misc words from our “great” president
“Who knew being president of the United States could be so hard?” “Who knew being a world class leader could be so hard?” “Being President is so complicated, who knew??” “Leading the government of the United States is so hard, who knew?”
Movie review – “Three Billboards”
Rented “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri” on New Year’s Eve. I knew going in, only that it had won some academy awards, and that it was a drama. It turned out to be more of a black comedy, and everyone’s performance was excellent. Especially, as you may already know, Sam Rockwell (whom I have always […]
Latest Clint Eastwood movie

The building of the clerestory was a pain since I wrongly assumed both of the longer walls were of equal height. But due to the slight slant of the roof, one […]
Motivated!
Wow, talk about being motivated. Did four to five errands this morning – yeah, I know, it’s not that big of a deal. But, it’s the simple things…lol Now, I’m going to sit down for a couple of hours and re-watch Amazon’s Jack Ryan (for the third time), before going over to the project bench […]
Republished essay I wrote at the end of 2016
This is something I apparently wrote two years ago. [feel free to skip it if you don’t want to read anything related to our current President.] ==== Tonight, as I try to fall asleep, I’m reminded of an episode of “The West Wing”, (from Season One, Ep 14, “Take this sabbath day.”) President Bartlett had […]
