Think, Laugh, & Cry Each Day
My wife knows me inside and out, we’ve both been together with each other longer than we’ve been apart. She’s gotten used to my tricks, but it did take some time for her to get used to my creative craziness. Yes, us creative types are different. Photo by Pixabay We have habits and traditions caused...

I love great movie lines. Yes, I love them for all the reasons that everyone else loves them. They make me laugh, smile, or cry — sometimes all at the same time. I love everything about them.

My laptop was slow starting up the other day, it needed an update, and I found myself thinking about the first computer I ever got to see up close. It was an original Macintosh 128K, the first successful mass-market all-in-one desktop personal computer with a built-in screen and mouse. The computer showed up one day... Continue Reading →

If it weren’t for a sign identifying him and giving basic information on the life of a chameleon,... Continue Reading →
