The Geezer's Guide to Life: September 2012

The Geezer's Guide to Life. Wednesday, September 26, 2012. 4 O'Clock In The Morning! When I was a young kid - starting around the age of 7 or 8, my Dad would take me fishing or hunting or camping or shooting in the back country of Northern Utah. I learned a lot from my Dad during these outings. I learned to appreciate nature and to have a sense of the world around me. I learned to get up early in the morning! As I said, sometimes we'd go fishing or hunting. Sometimes this would be an overnight or eve...

The Geezer's Guide to Life. Saturday, May 25, 2013. Selected Excerpts From the Presidential Diary. Direct from the White House, through a series of dead drops and hand-offs. At great risk to those involved, I bring you selected excerpts from the diary of Fearless Leader. (Please understand that these are in no particular order except as noted). Today was totally awesome! Records; that one was easy! Oh crap. I have to write a speech. I'll get someone else to do. It After all, I'm the boss now! Been sendin...

The Geezer's Guide to Life: End of the Year Review - 2014
http://guideforgeezers.blogspot.com/2014/12/end-of-year-review-2014.html
The Geezer's Guide to Life. Wednesday, December 10, 2014. End of the Year Review - 2014. It seems like 2014 has gone by very quickly. A lot has happened to me personally. My wife became very ill with her liver disease causing us to relocate to Salt Lake City, Utah in order to be closer to the University of Utah transplant center. This makes Americans a bit suspicious and leery of the so-called 'Moderate Muslims' here in the states. We don't hear them standing up and denouncing the acts of their radic...

The Geezer's Guide to Life: March 2013
http://guideforgeezers.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
The Geezer's Guide to Life. Wednesday, March 20, 2013. I've been seeing these two words more and more often. What do they mean, I asked myself? I set out to find an answer, as much for me as for you. Here's what I found:. Molon Labe (Mo-lone Lah-veh). Is Greek for "Come and Take". Simple enough. End of story. or maybe not. Thermopylae was a convenient and much used pass at the base of the mountains that was bordered by the Aegean Sea. Uphill from the pass was a steep cliff. Downhill was a steep c...A bit...

The Geezer's Guide to Life: November 2012
http://guideforgeezers.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
The Geezer's Guide to Life. Wednesday, November 21, 2012. In the USA we celebrate Thanksgiving. A holiday that commemorates the first year's bounty of the Pilgrims coming to the North American continent. Our ancestors gave a party and the Native American were invited. If you believe the stories, we had a "Pot Luck" style dinner back then. The Pilgrims provided the table and the Native Americans provided all the food since the Pilgrims weren't yet very good at providing for themselves. Today we gorge ours...

The Geezer's Guide to Life. Saturday, October 20, 2012. Family Secrets - So Don't Tell Anyone! The things we do as kids that we later look back on and laugh! I remember when my Sister was about 3 or 4 years old. We lived in a rural area of Logan, Utah. It was a former Fox Ranch. They raised fox for their fur. My Dad and Uncle used it as a base for raising mink for fur. There was also a large fenced pasture next to the house for two horses - Star and Tony (correction added - 10/21/12). Around the same tim...

The Geezer's Guide to Life: January 2014

The Geezer's Guide to Life. Friday, January 3, 2014. Global Warming and Other Thoughts. Well here it is. a few words about current events from over the past few months. There are those who would have us believe that the sky is (literally) falling in the form of climate change. World governments have bought in to this idea as a means to pass legislation restricting industry and business, and even the common citizen, to fall in to line and become more "Ecologically Responsible". I'm not saying that ecologi...

The Geezer's Guide to Life: June 2013
http://guideforgeezers.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
The Geezer's Guide to Life. Saturday, June 29, 2013. My wife and I have been married for thirty-six years. It seems like yesterday that we met and fell in love. The 36 years have gone by very fast, or so it seems. My wife has always had health problems due to her having been born premature. Parts of her body just never had time to develop fully. Her heart is smaller on the bottom than is normal and she's had at least one heart attack and maybe more. During all this time between visits to her doctor, she ...

The Geezer's Guide to Life. Friday, August 31, 2012. How Things Have Changed! When I was a kid, way back before the turn of the century (I love saying that) my family moved from Utah to California. I was almost 11 at the time so this was in 1958 or 1959. Dad eventually got a job as a Tool and Die maker (machinist) but during that first summer we lived off of our Parent's savings and what little they could make at whatever part-time jobs that were available. We would go to Manhattan Beach which was about ...
