“Just Do It”, as most of the world probably knows, is the advertising slogan for Nike … but it can go so much deeper than selling sportswear. Continue reading
Food for Thought!
This Category is where you will find Posts which, I hope, you will find interesting … because they will reflect our lives; our world, and our place in it!
What’s new?
Regular Followers of my Blog may well have noticed some inactivity these past two weeks. I had to do some traveling and, as is my habit, took my laptop with me. On the first day the laptop would not power up which, a local service business determined, was caused by an issue with the motherboard. Both the time required to fix the issue, and the associated cost, dictated that I wait until I get home before addressing the problem.
However, the two weeks proved to be very interesting. Those two weeks, and some interesting news from prior to my “off the net” adventure, will be posted here very shortly.
Stay tuned.
Pi and trees!
We live in an area that has many trees and I can imagine that, a few hundred years ago, it could well have been heavily forested around here. Continue reading
Just thinking … about sheep?
What do Wallace and Grommit (specifically Shawn), and Lord of the Rings have in common? Sheep obviously! Continue reading

The Laws of Holes
The internet, and specifically blogging, allows us to express ourselves to the full extent of our comfort level with the public nature of this medium. It is therefore not uncommon to witness somebody digging themselves a hole, and The Laws of Holes will inevitably come up in subsequent comments. Continue reading
Perceptions, and choices, again!
Since this blog started in 2014, I have referenced “perceptions” a number of times and it has always been in the context of how we see our world. This really shouldn’t surprise anybody because we all want to have some comfort level/acceptance in our world, and for us to get to that level, we have to know the culture of our world. Continue reading
Politics and Religion!
Many bloggers will steer clear of politics and religion and, given the abusive nature of isolated comments that are usually generated from those topics, it’s an understandable position. While I can acknowledge the sensitivity of those areas (together with a few other areas), I do believe that feelings/opinions should be expressed. Continue reading
Welcome …
… to the many new bloggers that have clicked the Follow button (or otherwise followed) this past few months. I do hope that you will return and check out the site. If you have a good imagination, find yourself a nice comfortable chair; help yourself to a latte (or whatever your taste dictates); put your feet up and give yourself a tour of the various categories. Continue reading
“If I could catch a rainbow”
Another “gem” from sorting through an old box! It was in my handwriting, and much more recent than the 1954 photograph (ref last Tuesday Post) … but I did not create it. Continue reading
A New Direction Perhaps?
