I admit it. I have recycled very few things in my life. I only recycle the usual items that two people (and two Cocker Spaniels) produce and that is because my wife makes me. Not that I don’t care about our planet or the future, I just never had enough sense or reason to evenContinue reading “Recycling”

Veteran’s Day
Today is the official day we choose to honor the veterans of our country. I was raised for apart of my life, as an Air Force dependent. My stepfather was a lifer, retiring as a Chief Master Sergeant.

But since I am also an obsesso-compulso, I am going to spend today catching upContinue reading “Absolute Laziness”

Blog #3 I hope the fooball fans are all back in their seats (at home), munching out and watching games. Here are my two cents on the NCAA football season: I think if form (and history) holds, Clemson, Ohio Stae, and Alabama will find their way into the playoffs This leaves Notre Dame and allContinue reading “Mark’s Musings”

Blog #2 10/26/20 It is a gorgeous day in Phoenix, so after suffering through yet another record-breaking hot summer, now we’ve got the gun! It is hard to get too high about it though, with all the dangerous fires raging throughout California and Colorado to name a few.
