In Case You've Wondered

My blog is where my wandering thoughts are interspersed with stuff I made up. So, if while reading you find yourself confused about the context, don't feel alone. I get confused, too.

If you're here for the stories, I started another blog: scratchingforchange.blogspot.com

One other thing: sometimes I write words you refuse to use in front of children, or polite company, unless you have a flat tire, or hit your thumb with a hammer.

I don't use them to offend; I use them to embellish.

Independence Day

Years ago, somebody took a bullet, succumbed to disease, lost everything they owned, or watched friends and family killed, in the hope they could gain liberty. Today is the day we celebrate their victory, but I'll start this day with a prayer our nation never completely degrades to where the only way we keep that liberty is in circumstances as brutal as those that led to the greatest nation ever created.
