Do you remember the first time you flew in an airplane? I do like it was yesterday. Mostly because as I’m writing this on August 26, 2018 it was just yesterday I first defied gravity commercially. That’s right. It took until I’m 57 years of age before I actually flew. I knew I’d enjoy the… Continue reading My First Flight

COLLOSSAL FAILURE
“We did what God told us to do. Why didn’t Pharaoh let us go worship God?” Moses shrugged. “Hopefully the leaders of the people will have some answers for us after their meeting here.” The door to the palace opened. The Hebrew contingency approached Moses and Aaron. “You said you were going to lead us… Continue reading COLLOSSAL FAILURE

West Texas observations from a transplanted Texan
When a writer has several hours behind the wheel of an 18-wheeler there’s too much time and not enough to think about. This blog post will be proof of what I’m talking about…or writing about, actually. This summer has been the year of West Texas window deliveries.

When is depression not a depression?
There’s a strange attitude in Texas this year. You heard that right, the state known for its attitude is a bit unsettled. It’s based solely on the weather we’re enduring. Being a native Michigander I’m used to extended periods of rainy days with clouds hiding the sun. This year has held an unusual amount of… Continue reading When is depression not a depression?

These past few months at work have been a bit of a challenge for this aging man. Forget about just work, come to think of it everything is becoming a challenge for this aging man.
