Random Thoughts: January 2010
http://zyzzz.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 1, 2010. All I Really Need to Know I Learned from Peanuts. Years ago, I had a great idea to write a book about the wisdom contained in the comic strip, Peanuts. At the time, there was a popular book called, All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten. If I had been a real writer instead of a lazy bastard, I would have kept writing and sent it to him. I think, despite his initial reservations about it, he would have understood the intended spirit of the project. Sadly, I am. But in...

Random Thoughts: Easter
http://zyzzz.blogspot.com/2014/04/easter.html
Thursday, April 10, 2014. My wife and I were buying Easter candy the other day, despite the fact that our children are well past easter basket stage. They like it and it's a fun tradition. It's not like it's new this year, but I really only just put it together how much Easter candy offerings have changed since I was a kid. One of my favorite Easter stories is the short story "Easter Weekend". Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Ain't It Cool News. We Stayed in By The Telly. I Have No Life.

Random Thoughts: Riding on a bus
http://zyzzz.blogspot.com/2010/07/riding-on-bus.html
Friday, July 16, 2010. Riding on a bus. Before I was old enough to drive, I took the bus everywhere. We lived in a little country town called Sissonville in southern West Virginia. The big town was Charleston, about 15 or so minutes away. My parents had a print shop and were usually in town. So in the summer, I was either going to be stranded or I could take the bus into Charleston. I was in 10. During all the rehearsals and after school time, we kind of got to know each another. I had a minor role&#...

Random Thoughts: Dog Strategies III
http://zyzzz.blogspot.com/2010/09/dog-strategies-iii.html
Saturday, September 25, 2010. I have a dog who is a little too smart for his own good (or mine). I've written before here. And then again here. On two separate occasions, we have caught him with a tissue and told him to spit it out ("leave it! Is our command for this) which he dutifully does. After I disposed of the first tissue, I noticed he had a second one he was just finishing up. He pulled the same con on Shauna today. I don't know whether to be annoyed or proud. :-). Ain't It Cool News.

Random Thoughts: President Beecroft
http://zyzzz.blogspot.com/2015/06/president-beecroft.html
Wednesday, June 17, 2015. Pres and Sister Beecroft, 1984. My mission president is dying. I knew he wasn’t well, but I heard the news this week that his hospice nurse thinks it’s the beginning of the end. She told the family that in her opinion he has about a week left. What’s a mission president anyway? As a missionary serving under his direction, I didn’t have much to compare him to. My first mission president was only there a month before Pres. Beecroft took over. I didn’t know ...Aside from my time as...

Random Thoughts: Dummies Talking to Each Other
http://zyzzz.blogspot.com/2013/04/dummies-talking-to-each-other.html
Monday, April 8, 2013. Dummies Talking to Each Other. After my grandfather's funeral, I was standing at the cemetery waiting for a ride back down the hill. My younger brother had gotten ill halfway up and I had to carry him the rest of the way. There was a truck giving people rides back down and I was going to be on that truck one way or the other. I've often thought of that greeting as I see people talking, especially if they are particularly dumb. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Ain't It Cool News.

Random Thoughts: Beach
http://zyzzz.blogspot.com/2012/11/beach.html
Wednesday, August 1, 2012. Meanwhile my stupid brother Doug and my older cousin Randy were permitted to come and go as the pleased. They tortured us with stories of their (likely invented) adventures around Myrtle Beach. Steve, Mark and I on one of our expeditions. Note my hand full of Polaroids.

Random Thoughts: October 2009
http://zyzzz.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 6, 2009. Several months ago, I posted a video clip. Of my old band performing a song I wrote when I was 19 called, "Kill Your Girlfriend." The entry also told the story of how the song was written. Since then, I installed a traffic monitor on my blog and have found that way too many people come to this blog after searching for terms like "How to kill your girlfriend" or "Kill your girlfriend and get away with it." That's a bit creepy. No, it's really creepy. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
