  • Making the Right Decision

    Players like to analyze the strategy and outcome of a game. Why this move was beneficial and why that one led to a player’s downfall.

  • If You Can’t Say Anything Nice, Don’t Say Anything At All…

    So I won’t (say anything not nice, that is). In fact, I’ve only got love for my Twitter followers, Facebook friends and the special few who hop on this blog every once in awhile.

    Using an old writer friend’s favorite word…This old post seemed apropos based on my last movie post and a commentor’s comment. So here you go! This movie is old now, but the meaning is still-I’m going to use it again-apropos. {Don’t worry there’s no secrets or plots revealed here. Just my 2 cents on how…

  • Day #1: Inspiring Myself

    {photo} Do you remember Bridget Jones’s Diary? “Alcohol Units 6, Cigarettes 45, Husbands 0.” This current attempt was inspired by the movie. But instead of dropping the alcohol, smokes and poundage, I’m on a path to inspire myself. How? By living a healthier, simpler, more meaningful life. Not as easy to calculate this one. But I’m going…
