Jim Taggart · We’re adrift as a society, seeking leadership for the way ahead. · We strive for meaning in our nano-second lifetimes on Planet Earth. · And we hope for some measure of contribution to our community, and society at large, during that nano-second burst. · Life is too short; indeed ...
Time for some humour
Royce Shook · My thanks to my Facebook friends for these great lines from Hollywood Squares: · Q . Paul, what is a good reason for pounding meat? · A. Paul Lynde: Loneliness! (The audience laughed so long and so hard it took up almost 15 minutes of the show!) · Q. It is the most abused and ne ...
Requiem For A Heavyweight
Jim Murray · Last night I found out that my old friend and boss Peter Langmuir had passed away. I don’t know how old he was. Probably the same age as me roughly. I don’t know how he died. I suppose I will find out soon enough. · I met Peter back in the early 1970s when we both worked as write ...
Listening skills

A Love Story (Love in the Age of Writing, Publishing and Grammarian Lust)
Robert Cormack · This won’t be sentimental as such. I’ve read enough sentiment to realize love stories are like love songs. They have a beginning and an end. Paul McCartney doesn’t like them to have an end, but he’s willing to admit his are “silly.” That’s probably why John Lennon said Paul “ ...

Bees Swarm. Bad News for My Kid, Not Great for LinkedIn Either
Paul "Pablo" Croubalian · That's my "little boy," Peter. At 6'2," 235 pounds, he's not so "little." He's still MY little boy. The picture is what he woke up to this morning. He's allergic to bee venom, so putting that bin next the swarm was either very brave or very stupid. · I haven't decided which yet. ...
There is a major issue here, and it's not beBee's fault. It's Ours
Paul "Pablo" Croubalian · Let me tell you a story about my son. He's 28 now, this happened when he was 4. He drew a picture. It may have been a cow. It might have been a deer.
