Retirement: Things I will NOT miss about my job.
I have been retired for about three weeks now. The first almost two weeks were spent on vacation, so they almost don't count. Here is a list of the many things I will not miss about my last job (I was there for 12 years). Punching a time-clock. After much of a career as a …

Lens-Artists Challenge #115 Inspiration
I am always inspired by the monumental, and not-so-monumental, works of human ingenuity. Whenever I see a bridge, or a mountain road, or a tall building, it reminds me of how people, down through the ages, have altered their environment by building things to make their lives easier, or to commemorate occasions or people. Structures …
Retirement. It’s bittersweet, for me.
Tomorrow, Monday, August 31, will be my last working day at my current job, which I have held for 12-2/3 years. That's the longest I have ever worked at any job in my entire working life. My original goal in life was to work forever, and never retire. Well, the Wuhan Coronavirus put an end …
Damn You, Jay Inslee.
Another notch in your (well, I was going to say gun, but you abhor guns) billy-club. Congratulations, you have destroyed another small business in Washington State. Another livelihood ruined, lives put in jeopardy by your "Rule by Decree". We have to destroy it in order to save it. You're lucky that the Sheeple of Washington …

The War of All Against All…
or How the Governments Multiplied Their Power by Destroying the US Economy to Fight the Wuhan Coronavirus The United States has seen epidemics of new and old diseases many times in the past. The so-called Spanish Flu infected 500 Million people worldwide between 1918 and 1920, claiming between 17 and 50 million lives (figures vary, …
Thought for the day: Rush Limbaugh on living through cancer treatment
I was listening to a podcast from May, when Rush issued this pithy little comment, on his frame of mind while undergoing cancer treatment, and continuing to do his three-hour show between rounds of treatment. He said: You hope that each good day is a Trend, and each bad day is a One-off.
Lens-Artists Challenge #106-Autumn
Autumn has always been my favorite season. Warm weather does not agree with me, and I prefer the crisp air of autumn to heat and humidity. Here on the West Coast, we don't have the hardwood forests found on the East Coast, but we do get some of the fall colors. We went to Victoria, …
