Learning
I almost want to say I’m curious about everything. I like to learn. I take classes to learn new things. While I watch shows, I look up the background of the actors and the movies. It’s something I got from my mother, she did the same thing by reading. I use my phone. It was… Continue reading

Think Small
I don’t have many deeds I can put a story around. I have the many little things, like trying to always smile when I encounter someone, not making a big deal out of little errors, being courteous to people in public service even when I’m frustrated, and saying thank you. I figure that any little… Continue reading

Cat Who Would Be King
My cat, a white and gray long hair Main Coon, is my shadow, which is also his name. I fight him for my chairs. Occasionally I battle with him for the coveted seats, but most of the time I give up. He’s persistent. He also harasses me until I feed him. He better watch it… Continue reading

The Bond of Traditions
My wife and I wanted to establish traditions for our kids, annual trips to the orchard, going to the theater on a holiday, breakfast in bed on birthdays and Easter Egg hunts to name a few. My Mom did the egg hunt bit, boiling eggs, letting us color them, then hiding them for us to… Continue reading

I am more comfortable stating how others describe me: honest, accepting, giving, funny and loyal. Then, I concur, but I’m blushing. Continue reading

Bronto
The first dinosaur that captured my imagination was the Brontosaurus. Sure the illustrations are sort of dull, gray, slow, and smooth featureless skin, but it was majestic and graceful. When I was a kid I made a diorama of a prehistoric scene, featuring a Brontosaurus trapped in a tar pit with a menacing Saber Tooth… Continue reading

Driving Distance
Most of the places I want to see are within driving distance. I would give the tickets to my kids. They could have much more fun with them. My wife would be disheartened hearing this, so I better say I would go to Paris. Continue reading

Cat, Two
My cat know what he wants. I fight him for my chair. He meows and carries on when he wants to be fed in the morning. He sneaks into my office to sleep on my other chair. He gets a bedtime snack, so we can go to bed in peace. I will be watching the… Continue reading

Cat’s Life
My cat has it made. After a good meal, he basks in the sun by the patio door. He lies on his back, tucks his front paws in across his chest. He a long hair, a big fur ball stretched out, sleeping easy on a soft door mat. He nuzzles his chin into his paws… Continue reading
