I love Bovril. I like it more than Marmite. I love salt, pepper, Aromat seasoning and many other things you can shake and spread. Japanese and Korean sauces turn any sandwich or meal into something I would steal. Biscoff cookie butter is divine, it sends shivers down my spine! Life without the ability to spice…

I recently learned a new definition of mental illness. Dr. Orion Taraban has a unique and clear understanding of the human psyche. In a recent Youtube video he discusses the concept of reification and how it often results in someone being considered mentally ill. I am adding a link below. I believe we all have…

This poem is a little too long. This is what you get when you look at your own weakness and failings to get examples of what it means to be human. I have heard the phrase ‘duality of man’, and I absolutely disagree with it. Humans are so much more! We are multifaceted, multi dimensional,…

Life can be tough. I remember times when things just went wrong non stop. This is so common there is even a folk saying ‘trouble comes in threes’. It still happens to me! Last month we got a nail in the left rear wheel of all three our vehicles in the same week! Sometimes when…

I have the greatest respect for soldiers, those men and women willing to die for their country. I absolutely despise the politicians that send these men and women to war to fight for freedom.

Read any well written sentence and replace all the adjectives with variations of the F-bomb, and you will still get the meaning of the original sentence. It may even convey more meaning because that word carries different emotion and feeling for each of us. This word is relative to our experiences and sensitivity, the size…

I am nearing the end of my career. I have worked on two continents in both hemispheres of this pretty planet. I am fortunate that my work has always been indoors, and challenging, fulfilling and rewarding. It has also been stressful, irritating, all consuming and intrusive. I had success and failure, I have seen laughter,…

Dogs are beautiful and innocent. They make fantastic companions and brings joy into my life. We have lost dogs over the years, but their memories remain. Odie died from complications due to surgery, and Peach was euthanized when her kidneys failed. They were happy until the very end. I wish I can be. Dog, you…

The world is tough. You make it or you don’t. Make as much money as you can, buy as much shit as your house can fit. When it becomes too small upgrade to a bigger, newer and modern place. Have no sympathy and zero empathy. Fuck the poor, they had the same chance as everyone…
