I love Beaker. He is my spirit-muppet. So very expressive yet simple. He works so hard and means the best; yet, somehow, he always messes things up. Usually as a result of his actions no matter how he tries to avoid such disaster. There are times (few and far between) where the end results areContinue reading “Ode to Beaker”

Been busy… living
Alas, I have not been lost at sea or anything exotic such as all that. It sounds like fun and I could use such an adventure.

As many know, and most are just now learning, I work in maintenance at a Super-Walmart. The job can be disgusting, but mostly it often provides fodder for ponderance. Not only are the people curious in behavior and mere existence, but revelations are made on a near daily basis. One thing I have found isContinue reading “It’s not a spittoon, it’s a urinal…”

Today, I learned the term “xylophile” – a lover of forests or woods. I grew up around the redwoods of California. The smell, sounds, air, everything about these forests make me feel whole. Years back, we found ourselves in Emmett, ID. A small quaint town, but no groups of trees with which to commune. IContinue reading “Forests and Sky Trees”
