The only time I have ever been on a helicopter, I was unconscious. As I have written before, late in the evening of January 2, 2024, I experienced the most terrifying moments of my life. I had been in a local emergency room all day feeling generally crummy after briefly losing consciousness for about 5 … Continue reading HELICOPTER

NOT JUST A BURGER
Today I would like to discuss something very important with you: The Cheeseburger. Boy--- does the internet have a field day with this one. If you search "a short history of the cheeseburger" you will find all kinds of tasty stories that make you want to order some Door Dash....but don't do that yet. Finish … Continue reading NOT JUST A BURGER
FROM THE VAULT VOL. II
I had no idea that this topic would garner so much positive feedback from you, loyal readers. It is because of your comments and emails that I present this week, a second installment of a dank, mossy, cold, dark and gray vault: the inside of my brain. Here there be dragons! As most of you … Continue reading FROM THE VAULT VOL. II
ACCEPTANCE
Welcome back loyal reader. I took a few weeks off from writing because I felt like it. There you go. I'm back now, and I want to talk with you today about acceptance. Throughout my adult life, people have labeled me as a hero, role model, inspiration and other things that are to be taken … Continue reading ACCEPTANCE
WHAT A JOKE!
For quite awhile I have played around with the idea of doing an entire entry based upon inside jokes and references. If you get a few, then Bravo! Donnie Bravo to all you pupils! If you don't, that's ok too....just laugh and wonder what the hell is wrong with me. Don't hate.....appreciate. Once upon a … Continue reading WHAT A JOKE!

So fascinated, that once upon a time I got a Master's degree in it. I wouldn't call it straight sociology though; more like a splash of that with a … Continue reading DYNAMICS
BRIEF
It is my honest with that you are all enjoying Thanksgiving with family and friends that you love. I have been on the high speed train of introspection and reflection since I was sick last January and here are a few things that I've been thinking about. These are in no particular order... It is … Continue reading BRIEF
HISTORY HAS ITS TIME
I love history. As I have written in past blogs, I am deeply amazed at how we all got to this point right now. YOU are reading these words. Perhaps you know me, or perhaps not (yes, I have subscribers now who I don't know....which is also very cool....thank you). If you think about our … Continue reading HISTORY HAS ITS TIME
FROM THE VAULT VOL. 1
All of us have stories that we tell over and over again. With time, and depending on who is present, the story may be shortened or embellished for effect, laughter, the pulling of heart strings and things of that nature. This week, I would like to share a classic Pat Moeschen story that gets told … Continue reading FROM THE VAULT VOL. 1
