Bah spook bug

Posted on Oct 31, 2017Nov 1, 2017 by Bernie

Every year Halloween rolls around and people spend oodles of time and a smidgen of money “doing it up”. Costumes and house decorating and parties. Last year’s Halloween post even talked about how much money it pumps into the economy.

Black and White

Posted on Oct 13, 2017 by Bernie

Once upon a time in a land near here there was only one option. That was kind of like when dinosaurs roamed the prairies and I was just born or at least that is how old they all think I am at work. But I digress because really I am here comparing what was and what is.  Continue reading “Black and White” →

The Real List 

Posted on Oct 10, 2017Feb 20, 2021 by Bernie

I always have at least one list on the go, sometimes two. Often when I review them I can get discouraged. Perhaps the 90% positive way to is “look what I did do”. That’s the thought that occurred to me today when I Continue reading “The Real List “ →

We are all Somebody 

Posted on Oct 2, 2017Oct 6, 2017 by Bernie

It’s hard to make sense of the world at times. The events of the weekend hammer that home. But really it’s the events of any weekend because the trauma comes in many shapes and forms and is rampant around the world.
