Synchronistic Search Query
I got a search query for a “JKearns 02 UFO” from a Hungarian Military Defense Institute. Thought that was funny because I don’t think I’ve ever had a search query for Kearns hit my blog. And thought it was funny since the new book I’m working on begins with a UFO sighting. But what made…

The word of the day is "Zombified"
So this evening I for some reason thought about how it had been a while since I’d had one of those coincidental moments with H.o.p. where something I’m thinking will pop out of his mouth. Earlier today I wrote on the blog how I was feeling “zombified”. It’s not a normal part of my vocabulary.…

The strange small things in life
The world is a funny place. A few days ago, for the first time in two decades, it occurred to me to try to recollect what my kindergarten teacher’s name was. I hadn’t thought about it in nearly twenty years and at first I thought oh I’ll never remember, then after a few minutes it…

Children may like ghost stories but not the inexplicable–at least H.o.p. doesn’t
My plans had been to write about watching “Twister” with H.o.p. earlier tonight. Insomnia without my computer programs and files isn’t a whole hell of a lot of fun. Usually, if I can’t sleep, I get up and work some then go back to bed. That not being an option the past ten days, I…

Someone please explain this for me
Weird thing just happened (at least it’s weird to me, in my book) and I wish someone would explain it for me. I was neatening up around here and noticed on a corner table (plastic) a small wadded up piece of tape covered with lint. I picked it up and screamed (yeah) and dropped it…

Stupid lost skills department
I’m wondering tonight about idiosyncratic skills people pick up naturally and what might belong or have belonged to some individuals reading. The second place Marty and I lived after we were married was a second floor in a house that had a screened porch. We had no air conditioning of course, the house was ancient…

Wonderings on something I know little about
I’ve been reading these Egyptian love poems which seem to me to not be just love poems, though I could be wrong. In the 9th poem given from a selection of fragments, the lover enters the river to cross to his “sister” on the far side, a crocodile waiting in the shallows. The introduction reads,…

Whoowhoo–Oh, brother, now she’s writing about chemtrails?
(Note: I’ve updated with a higher magnification.) Whoowho–now she’s writing about chemtrails? No I’m not and I put a question mark because I don’t know what this is and am wondering if someone can tell me. So, we were near the end of the trip. We’d crossed the mighty Mississippi. Not a cloud in the…

Amaryllis eyes
[clear] Took a digi snapshot last night of our amaryllis for family. The “eyes” effect is actually just an accidental trick of light and shadow, the white being the wall behind the flower. Still, quite something. I looked around on the web at other photos of amaryllis and didn’t come across anything even vaguely similar.…
