BE SMART OR BE DEAD, BLUE BLOOD

“Be smart or be dead,” comes from a cop show I watch with my wife. It could be any cop show watched with any wife as long as Tom Selleck is in it. In a recent episode a retired cop stops some shady punk from robbing a cashier by pulling his gun, aiming it at […]

THE DEAD PLAYS BABY BOOMER BY THAT CLOSE

If you’ve been to a Grateful Dead show, then you know about the long strange trip. If it was a Dead show at the Gorge Amphitheater in George, Washington, it’s longer and stranger. But it was more than a Dead show. It was the Allman Brothers and the Doobie Brothers too. A Boomer-fest, but that’s […]

PUTTING THE BOOM IN AGING BABY BOOMERS

Oh, those boomers. (Move cursor to the 1:45 mark for this guy’s take.) They’ve got all the money, all the good jobs, and they won’t go away. At least that’s the current rumor. Even with 10,000 of them retiring everyday, how long will it take to clear them out? Younger generations ask the question but […]

The writing instructor’s iron-clad rule to Show, Don’t Tell, sounds show business-y enough. Bloggers on the WordPress platform have an advantage in giving The People what […]

BEER WRITING IS ABOUT DESTINATION BEER? NOT ALWAYS

Beer writing is about the new, the bold, the best beers on the market. It’s citrus beer, fresh hop beer, hazy and low-cal beer. From first beer to last beer, destination beer is still king. Go out for a new beer and you’ll get more than you bargained for if your destination is Kalama, Washington […]

BOOMERS WANT LIST INCLUDES WHAT THEY DIDN’T GET

Boomers want more, more, more? That’s the whine that comes from the echo chamber of other generations, like baby boomers are a cut and run company of ruin and destruction. Boomers I know want that elusive dish in life, harmony with a side of peace, love, and understanding. Boomer wannabes want the same thing, but […]

TRAVEL BUG BITES BACK? SCRATCH THAT ITCH

Once upon a time the bite from a travel bug meant one thing: pack that bag. We all know people bitten by the travel bug. From pictures, to videos, to restaurant receipts, they can’t stop re-telling the same story over and over. We know them because that’s just who we are. See something that draws […]

POLYFACE FARMS LUXURY VS FIVE DIAMOND ULTIMATE LUXURY

  Everyone on this side of the hermit life has seen a county fair cow barn, a state fair pig parade, and a showcase of caged chickens.   Keeping them all penned up seemed harsh until I saw a picture of industrial meat production.   Next cow up, chicken herder.
