June 25, 2018 by David Gillaspie

Does blog traffic show up unexpected? What makes readers stay and look around once they do find you on accident? First, it’s not an accident. At least blog traffic shouldn’t be accidental. That’s why we buy and install Genesis framework on a wordpress platform with a News theme from Studio Press. […]

GOOGLE ANALYTICS MAKE BETTER READERS

June 1, 2017 by David Gillaspie

Google Analytics only goes so far. See, numbers don’t lie when they come from the industry standard. If numbers are too much, you also get a map. Either way, when the numbers come in you’ve got to analyze them. Boston must have an auto-dialer working overtime. They’ve come here for 136 sessions amounting to one […]

GIVING UP, BUT NOT A QUITTER?

May 4, 2024 by David Gillaspie Leave a Comment

Giving up is different than quitting. Really. Quitting means done, all over, finished. The Day I Quit. Giving up is a longer process. One is a reaction, the other a journey. Who’s got the map?

CLEAR DOWN RANGE NEW MEANING

May 3, 2024 by David Gillaspie Leave a Comment

The first time I heard the call of “CLEAR DOWN RANGE” I was laying in the dirt with the guys, Fort Ord dirt, and trying to fit three bullets inside the diameter of a quarter. The best I got was two in with a stray nearby. The rifle range targets were a head and shoulder […]

TOXIC MALE? HOW TO TELL

April 26, 2024 by David Gillaspie Leave a Comment

Baby boomers were exposed to the toxic male early on, but it had another name: Junior High Football Coach. But it wasn’t their fault, it was just the times. When guys with names like Dick Butkus, Ray Nitschke, and Sam Huff were stuffing guys like Jim Brown and Jim Taylor, every coach wanted their players […]

FEELING JAMMED FOR TIME? AND EVERYTHING ELSE

April 22, 2024 by David Gillaspie Leave a Comment

I’m feeling jammed for time when I hear this in my brain: “I’m late, I’m late! For a very important date! No time to say ‘hello, goodbye,’ I’m late, I’m late, I’m late!” “Be On Time,” is my mantra. I’m saying it right now. (beontime beontime beontime) Can’t hurt but, ??????

HARD LOVE DADDY ON A HEALTH KICK

April 16, 2024 by David Gillaspie

I saw hard love work on my Dad after he got his heart fixed. No smoking for the old chimney. The doc said it, the family said it, the friends said it. You’d say it too.

SELF MADE BADGE OF HONOR, OR GLORY HOG

April 3, 2024 by David Gillaspie

The self proclaimed ‘self made’ man stands alone all by himself. No one else gets any credit for his accomplishments because: A: His accomplishments are so meager no one knows, or, B: He’s been shunned. Which is it, because no man is a self made man.

As an Everyday Blogger, with help from my sharp readers leaving comments that become blog posts, I focus on finding a better communication form than writing. But wherever it’s found, the […]
