Remember “window shopping”? No, kids, it’s not the same in a mall as it was walking down Main Street past department stores with huge displays. And it was safe.

I appreciate it when hotels furnish a coffee maker in the room. I do NOT appreciate it when all the options are Decaf! What is the purpose of Decaf? Is it like candy cigarettes; practicing to be adults?

We’ve been visiting Reno (nice town, btw). An old neighbor from MN happened to be in town, interviewing. Had drinks. Why are these happenstance visits so fulfilling? Seemed like the cosmos or something wanted us to say hello.

Folks say their “spirit animal” is a lion or wolf or eagle. Most of the time they are more like a slug, or parasite or gnat. Just my observation.

Been drinking my beer outta clear glass bottles so I can watch the “legs” and feel fancy; like the wine drinkers. Appears my stouts and porters are hanging in there with my Sol and Modelo! How bout you? Gonna test the “legs” on whiskey and scotch, too. To be fair.

I missed little conveniences in boot that now are laughable. I remember asking my mom to send a Bobby Pin in a letter because my ears were itching from all the sand! Lol. Silly teenager.

I enjoy listening to differing options based on FACT. But I have no interest in listening to emotions and hearsay. Saying it louder doesn’t make it true. “But 1000 Romans can’t be wrong”. Yes they can, and were.

American citizens have a right to their opinions. But if you say you KNOW something, you better be prepared to have an old fart ask you for your proof. We’ve heard a few lies in our lifetimes!

My grandson woke up to his first reveille at MCRD. His morning is chaos. I’m watching hummingbirds in peace. Enjoy your peace today. It’s bought and paid for.

Marines harass each other about Hollywood or PI but we would die for each other. HOWEVER, I DO have a set of nice Oakley sunglasses waiting on that Hollywood grandson of mine once he’s earned the title.
