The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2014 annual report for this blog. Here's an excerpt: The concert hall at the Sydney Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 15,000 times in 2014. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 6 sold-out performances for that many […]

Yesterday (by time of this posting), I wrote a post that was way too long (1,800 words or so) and along the way, I mentioned the potential of the Brainiac Fund. I’d like to highlight a few in that brain pool: With great joy, I read yesterday that Bill Hamilton of Dealing With COPD announced […]
I woke from a bad dream around 5:00 a.m. Unable to go back to sleep, I got up, hit the button on the coffee pot, fed the cat and the dog, and turned on The Bill Bennett Show, which can be found here. I enjoy Bill’s show. He’s quiet, thoughtful and measured. But since it […]
Recently, two of my blogger buds gifted me with the Sunshine Award. Curiously, they come from different directions, one from the U.S. and one from Down Under, and the pictures of the Award differ, as do the Rules. Tremble. Neither one could explain what the Sunshine Award was for. They thought it may have something […]

April has become my month for Awards, the most recent I have received is this one: The name of the Award says it all. The Very Inspiring Blogger Award. KnowledgeKnut, a blogger who has been through much recently, took time to honor other bloggers – that in itself is an inspiration. More inspiring, she has […]
“To family who become friends and to friends who become family.” Wiley of Wiley’s Wisdom, who breathes joy with every post, received the WordPress Family Blogging Award and, in keeping with his nature, and the rules, nominated others, of which we are one. Thank you, Wiley. Claire, Elby and HuntMode think you are the cat’s […]
DP Challenge: Why do you blog? I am a new blogger, just four months old. I had hopes when I began that I would cover topics as diverse as national intelligence, emergency disaster and preparation, exploration of religion to stories of my “staff,” a greyhound and a cat and that maybe someone would be interested.
