In a post completely unrelated to those before, I felt compelled to write here about something I touched on a couple months ago, namely how people as they grow older often change in ways they don’t expect, and how a lack of hope does not mean utter hopelessness.

The phrase used by optimistic economists for the last year is starting to come to life. But I’m not going to talk about the economy, or politics, or even Team Blue (which, by the way, needs a mascot, I think … but Blue Devils is taken and I don’t think Blue Balls would go over [...]

After visiting a friend’s blog, I discovered that I had completely forgotten Mother’s Day. I’m not a mother myself, and have no mother or maternal relations, so I often forget. But I think fathers are getting a raw deal. Mother’s Day gets splashed all over the television, newspapers, and internet advertising like a second Christmas. [...]

Okay, I know I’ve posted nothing since coming back but I have to re-visit a recent topic before I can in good conscience move on to post anything new. In my travels I picked up a newspaper which had been discarded in a hotel lobby. You may ask why, when it would normally be more [...]
