Art Studio
One of my fantasies, is having a large working space for my art, a studio, where I have plenty of room to stretch out or store various projects and supplies. I would have a cot in the corner, so that when I am in the groove, I would remain on site and work all day Continue reading

Plastic Powered Car
They say that much of our recycled plastic goes to the landfill, which is sad. If there’s not a market to reuse plastic, then burn it, but not in the incinerators at some waste disposal facilities. Burn it to fuel a car, a steam-powered vehicle. Steam probably went out of favor because the combustion engine Continue reading

Carrots
I have reached the age where some foods are wrong to eat. I can’t blindly consume as I please without consequences. The spicey foods I used to love, give me indigestion. Even modest portions of cheese plugs me up. Greasy pizza (once my favorite) does the opposite. Coffee after noon keeps me awake all night. I Continue reading

Bright Fame
Names are a paradox. Should I act specific ways to live up to my name and when I don’t have I failed? “Robert” can mean many things, but I have attached myself to the meaning: “bright fame.” I can look to De Niro, Duvall or Kennedy, as proof, or the many others. I personally like Continue reading

Too many times, I’ve watched lawn workers blowing leaves around that blow back on the same yard, just moments after the workers leave, especially those leaves they blow into the street. I admit raking up leaves is time consuming Continue reading

My wife doesn’t believe me when she gets home from work and I tell her I got nothing done. That’s because after my ritual declaration, I list what I did do and she is amazed. It’s usually a long list. I also often say “I don’t know where my time went … I lost the Continue reading

World’s Largest Ball of Yarn
There’s lots of things to see in the world, and I definitely want to see as much as possible. I love visiting new places. In my own country there are plenty of national and state parks with many natural wonders. I love to attend museums and read all the information possible, absorbing facts. My family Continue reading

Television Aint Reading
In my writing classes, many of the writers were avid readers. Reading is part of writing, that was a theme in the classes. My father was an avid reader, up to 12 books a month in his best days. My mother also read a lot, always with a book in hand, all the way to Continue reading
