It has its own logic. People are hungry. Feed them. Simple. Cops are killing young black men. Kill the cops. The 1% have too much and the 99% don’t have enough. Take from the 1% and give it to the 99%. From each according to his or her ability toContinue Reading

First Posted 24-Aug-2015 The origin of this is my buddy’s “Poor Player’s Hour” in his blog.

First Posted 28-Dec-2015 The title pretty much says it. The next 700 words or so are really just a long winded way to say the three word title of this post. This month I posted a piece saying that Eve had her reasons. Then I had Adam in my headContinue Reading

First Posted 12-Sep-2014 A half-century is two generations and a decade. I have never not existed for some of the children at church. I’ve been there in the same spot in the same pew ever since they can remember. The world that birthed me is rather different than this oneContinue Reading
