I remember back when I was a kid in my old neighborhood. One of my neighbors used to sit on his back porch and play various Metallica songs on his electric guitar. He wasn’t great or anything, but it was fun to listen to him navigate the strings and chords for those songs. He was […]

I’ve Decided to Try to Learn How to Play the Guitar Again
I’ve been down this road before. I understand that playing the guitar is a true challenge, but I also understand that it’s one mighty satisfying reward. Not everyone can do it. Not everyone can even learn how to do it. Way back in 2012, I failed. I’m going to give it another try. What do […]
I’ve Given Up On Audio Books
I’m not sure when it happened. Probably about a year or two ago. I decided that I was finished with reading and that I would only listen to audio books for the rest of my life. What prompted this decision was anger at all the fake book reviews on Amazon. It seemed like everywhere I […]
The Problem With Cell Phones
I’ve been trying to express the thoughts conveyed in the video below for years. I’m not sure I’ve done such a great job of it because it seems that every time I mention the flaws in our great society, I get push back. Not serious push back – probably something more along the lines of […]
The Lord of the Rings by J. R. R. Tolkien
Guess what I did last night. I purchased the Kindle edition of “The Lord of the Rings” by J. R. R. Tolkien. I figured I needed to give myself a small gift for being such a good boy lately. I finished reading my previous Kindle book, “The Mystery Of the Hidden Room by Marion Harvey” […]
Andy McKee – Common Ground
Back in a previous life, I played the guitar. Well, I was learning to play the guitar and I have to say, I was moving right along. I was up to chords and while cords can, and were, tricky, I was doing them and learning what I needed to learn. I began my guitar lessons […]
The Hobbit – The Movie
We watched The Hobbit movie last night and I just wanted to say a little something about it. First, I think it was pretty good. I liked the animation for the most part and when compared to what I read in the book, the scenes were almost spot on. The movie was different than the […]
Oz The Great and Powerful
I remember back when I was a kid, whenever I would see a movie trailer on TV, I would say, “I wanna see that.” My father was usually sitting nearby and wouldn’t say much. Well, as the years when by and as I continued saying, “I wanna see that” after each and every movie trailer, […]
The Hobbit
I’m almost halfway through the Hobbit right now and I’m really enjoying it. It’s a great book and a good adventure story. I’ve been telling people recently that I’m going straight fantasy. Well, I’ll throw in some Sci-Fi because of all the Star Wars and Star Trek books I want to read. As long as […]
YOLO: You Only Live Once
I was talking to my younger sister a few nights ago when I mentioned that I was using my phone to text much more than I thought I ever would. FYI – I recently changed my cell phone plan to include unlimited texting and life has been different ever since. The funny thing is, I […]
