I read a few tech columns and blogs, but not enough so you would mistake me for a technology wiz, or even someone with more than basic knowledge of “How stuff works”. Today, however, a headine in my reader caught my eye, and I didn’t mark the item as “read”, I actually read the darn … Read more
That I sometimes wander. Not just my mind, but my entire universe? “Off on a tangent,” my Mother used to say about my personality quirk. I actually looked that little word up the other day, after I went on one. I sometimes wonder how these side trips happen to me, but not for very long. … Read more
I mentioned we were going to attend the show, so you probably want to know what kind of camper Papa and I bought at the big show last week. Drum roll please: Ready? None. We did do a good job of looking around. As usual, I noticed a couple of things I didn’t care for, … Read more
Monday, Monday Can’t trust that day… I have no idea why the Mama’s and the Papa’s song floats through my head so many times on Monday. I guess it’s just an ear worm that never ends. Well, this one ends, but comes back on Mondays; not all Mondays, but many of them. There are a … Read more

Sorry to say, my “banjo” tag has nearly disappeared – that is a bad thing. Just in time, Steve Martin and his banjo have been making the rounds, promoting his new CD, The Crow. He is also promoting the new Pink Panther movie, but I don’t watch movies. But I do like banjo music, and … Read more
It was a little warmer for a day or so there, but now it’s back to the deep freeze. We are supposed to have a warm weekend, but it won’t help Papa and I any, we are headed north to M-in-L’s house. She’s having a birthday, and we want to be there. I’m busy as … Read more
