This last week has been my spring break from school. It happens to also one up with one of my girls weeks of spring break. This is the first time this has happened in I think 5 years. So, we decided, months ago, to travel as a family for the week. And we decided to…
Live Online is Dragging Me Down
Ever since the pandemic starting in Spring of 2020 I have been teaching at least 1 class as a live online physics class. For those that don’t know what that is here you go. It is where the students have to log into a live class using Webex (Like zoom or google chat) and we…
Music of the Month – February
The music app I use on my phone Musicolet has started giving me a “Most played” list at the end of each month. So I thought I would let you all know what I listened to the most in February. This seems pretty spot on. I like that I had a Wallace And Ladmo song…
Oh well – the result I didn’t want yet
So it was “Super Tuesday” the other day, and it regretfully went as I expected, but didn’t hope for. If you live under a rock, live in another country (that’s you bro), or just don’t care I will let you know what happened. Trump won pretty much everything, and Ms. Haley has dropped out. The…

I wanted to write about something good today. I get gifts from family like most of us do. I am not much of a gift person for the most part so a lot of the time gift “go in one ear and out the other”. They get left to the side and I rarely use…
Autographs and Handshakes
Over the years I have been to many Star Trek and Sci-Fi conventions. Most of them have been run by Creation Entertainment and then a few have been the big Comic Con/Fan Fusion/Fan Fest that occurs in Phoenix. I have gone to these things to see those stars from the shows I have grown up…
Weekend Update
So I was planning to write an update on the bicycle accident stuff, but instead I am going to write about the weekend and how things went. I will give you update on the bicycle stuff later in the week (maybe tomorrow if time allows) I mentioned that on Friday I got to do interviewing…
Long Day(s)
Hello all – I know I promised to post more often and I haven’t posted in a few days. Sorry. Thursday I had a late day at work to evaluate a co-worker on top of a typical busy Thursday. I had a long day today of being on an interview committee at my college. I…
