About Me

I was DEVASTATED when I opened my SENIOR YEAR high school annual, only to discover my photo was missing, and undoubtedly, some smarmy, ever-politically-correct cheerleader had added the by-line "NEVER LET THE TEACHER HAVE THE LAST WORD" under the blank spot where my senior pic should've been. Pfffft... bastards!
I have a rather large, black, panther-like cat named "Mr. Meow" - who, despite being a loveable character, remains an absolutely shameless, demanding and certified milk whore. Lord help us all should I ever run out of skim...
Getting down to the 'proverbial brass tacks" - I believe in the infinite value of truth and honesty. When facts are distorted and embellished for ANY type of gain, or to inflict pain - I trust in eventual karma. Toward that belief, I add, "too bad karma doesn't have deadlines and a spy cam."
I cannot impress upon others empathically enough - comprehend and appreciate the power of your mind. Yes, YOUR mind. Use it regularly. Challenge it. Provoke it. Nurture it. Worship it. Treasure it. Share it. Play with it. Stretch it - Think BIG and BROADLY with it. Allow it to converse and consort with your heart. The two combined, are an unbelievable force to be reckoned with.
break loose - think OUTside the box...

Challenging Times...

Such a long week of horrific news, loss, sadness, grief, confusion and anger.  I find myself wondering whether it is useful to watch the daily news.  It's certainly not beneficial to one's e...

Does this Qualify as Animal Cruelty?

In years gone by, it was tradition in our home to buy (my only daughter) a fancy Easter dress.  (The kind that twirls, of course.)  I smile whenever I think of her delight each year - her sm...
