DIGGING UP DIRT
When my son was just a young lad, we gave him some Tonka trucks which allowed him to spend hours digging up dirt and moving it from one place to another. Not only did it fill the time, but he … Continue reading

STOP THE WORLD
I suppose Albert Einstein did a lot of experimentation before discovering his theory of relativity. This brilliant physicist broke ground in areas never before considered. He was the guy with the goofy hair – the typical mad scientist – a … Continue reading

INDEPENDENCE
We recently went through the tedious process of setting up a new internet and cable network. That in itself was a feat beyond compare for those of us in our 70s. If it has anything to do with technology, us … Continue reading
