Peeking into the mind of a polymath

  • And now, for something completely different…

    I am thankful that I live in the community I do. It’s not everyday or everywhere you see messages like this sent from the local middle school: CC: PFMS- Please be Advised Dear Parents and Guardians, This afternoon we were informed that a bear and her three cubs were spotted in the Park Forest area. […]

  • Foodie Friday: Broccoli, shaken not stirred (except in a wok)

    I am thankful for broccoli. It has a huge assortment of vitamins (C, for example), minerals (selenium) and healthy bits in it (dietary fiber, and some anti-cancer thingies). And it is tasty, despite what President Bush said. Whether steamed, boiled, microwaved, stir fried or raw, it brings a vibrant color to the table; usually dark […]

  • Thoughtful Thursdays: On Teaching

    I am thankful for the ability to ponder. To thoughtfully consider. To “split infinitives” as I please. To think. I think… Thoughtful Thursdays are one opportunity for me to share and showcase some of the ideas, sayings, proverbs, quotations and clichés that inspire and motivate me. So, what inspires me this week? Glad you asked… […]

  • Dealers for an ebook junkie…

    I am thankful for Kindle Buffet–a service that provides me with a daily dose of free ebooks, in genres I have chosen. The real drawback is that I’ve accumulated quite a number & need to actually read them…that and finding storage on my tablet is beginning to be a consideration. Fortunately, as the name indicates, […]

  • Cars

    I am thankful for automobiles. Cars. The ability to get me & my stuff from point A to point B in a modicum of comfort, safety, and economy. My first ride was…not pictured at left. It was a Super Beetle.   This is what I wanted for quite a long while…the Aptera. Might as well […]

  • Sunday’s Spiritual Spin: The Fallen

    unday’s Spiritual Spin I am thankful for my brothers and sisters in arms who have fallen in the line of duty. Memorial Day is the day on which we honor those who gave their lives in defense of our country. It is no surprise that nearly all Americans recognize this honor, regardless of their viewpoints on […]

  • ‘Lectric Shave…

    I am thankful for electric razors. Not as close a shave as the manual kind, but a lot more convenient. Just needed a bit of a touch up from yesterday’s safety razor shave for work this morning. Nice to have the option sometimes.

  • Foodie Friday: Peanut, Peanut Butter….and jelly!

        I am thankful for peanut butter. Incredibly versatile. Supremely tasty. And plays well with bacon.   You knew that was coming, right?   Many folks believe George Washington Carver invented peanut butter. Nope, while he did invent an amazing list of peanut based goodies (sweet potato, too!), the Aztecs were mashing peanuts into […]

  • Thoughtful Thursdays: BSA Membership Decision

    I am thankful for the Boy Scouts of America. I started my adventures in Scouting in April of 1970, when I became a Bobcat (Cub) Scout. I have thoroughly enjoyed Scouting. PLEASE BE ADVISED: I usually put in at least a little bit of thought into my posts and try very diligently not to post […]
