This subject crossed my mind recently as I’ve been selling a number of items. I can’t say … Continue reading Things

Bicycles
I ride bicycles. Yep. If you hadn’t already figure that out, well, you know now! Bicycles are something that I not only ride, they are also something I am deeply interested in, from a nerd, geek, engineer kind of way. Much like cars and motorcycles.

We watch in real time, in our country, what has happened in many other countries across history. Why the human race can never learn from our past is beyond me. Maybe someone else … Continue reading Presidents

First, let’s go back to 2020 and what I originally wrote on the subject. Have you ever been driving down an empty road, not … Continue reading Convergence

Airports
As far back as I can remember, I have loved planes and airports. When I was a kid, I always looked forward to a trip to the airport. In my case, the airport was usually Stapleton International Airport. It no longer exists but at the time, it was Denver’s main airport. This was back before … Continue reading Airports
