This Is Me

Joshua saw Dillis knitting this sweater for her son Norman from Fireman Sam and asked me to knit him one just like it. We went to buy the yarn today. Pretty Darn Cute!!!

Perspective

                                                              It's all in how you look at it.

Lumbersexual?


My Son was talking about this new form of person or fashion or whatever it is. Urban Cowboy type or what ever. I call it normal for a woodworker of any kind. Shops get cold, flannel is warm, beards are lovely. And there were lumbersexuals way way before this guy. I think they are posers or something. You can't dress like this unless you have sawdust stuck in your socks.

Patience Little Grasshopper

So we went down to Nepenthe Restaurant on the Big Sur coast. It is definitively a destination spot that comes with an incredible coast road experience. So when we arrive and the very busy spot we know there is going to be a wait for the back veranda. It was 45 minutes at least. There were other people there waiting of course. What I found difficult to understand was how impatient people were about the wait. Every moment that I am there, the beauty of the place feeds my soul. I am reminded of all the great people who have stood on that very patio next to the coast since the days of the beatniks, writers, politicians, musicians, artists, and a host of others. How could even a moment of time spent in a place like Nepenthe make anyone upset.

Of Course

Why did the rooster cross the road? Because the chicken was on vacation. And so am I see you in a couple of days. Keep laughing and looking for ways to make everyone smile.

Prehistoric Googleing

At least they didn't keep track of every book you looked at, at the library. They didn't collect data on everything you read or showed interest in. Now they keep track of every word you write, every site you visit. How you write and what you write about even to your friends and family. All in the name of security? I think maybe that is a very small part of all the internet data snooping. But the picture of you has never been more transparent than it is today. Every time you take a little survey, are you a flower or a tree, what color is your favorite, you give them even more details about yourself. It isn't very funny at all. Privacy is a myth.

Dart Eyes

I overheard my Father talking to my new Brother-in-law to be, on my Sister's wedding day, "There is an unspoken language between married couples, you will learn all about it." I had been married for about 3 years and couldn't help replying, " Yes it's called Dart Eyes." I have been married for 38 years now and this laser eye surgery could really come in handy.
