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.

Madness Is All In The Mind: Chain Mail
http://madnessisallinthemind.blogspot.com/2015/04/chain-mail.html
Thursday, 30 April 2015. Then one day, they all went a bit shit. Some more than others. To be fair, it took more than a day for this to happen, but we have now arrived at an era when the latest X Factor winner is all over the front page, then a few pages in (after the tits, if it's that. For those of you who have followed this blog for quite some time, you may recall I sort-of touched on this subject a few years ago. And things have only got worse since then. One of the worst - if not the. My name is Wil...

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.
