I think sometimes I think too much. Or maybe I just over-analyze stuff. I think the best example of this is when I am walking toward a door that I am going to have to open. Most of the time it goes fairly smoothly, but I sometimes get the feeling that I’ve started reaching forContinue reading “How To Open (Or Not Open) A Door”

Sledding: A Year Round Activity
As I was driving down the road the other day I say a big hill and thought “Man, that sure would make a good sledding hill. Too bad it’s 70 something degrees and not a flake of snow in sight. I bet it would be a ton of fun once we get a good snow.” Continue reading “Sledding: A Year Round Activity”
18 Things I Would Like To Try
1. Drive A Vehicle Through A Closed Gate Could be either a chain link fence or one of those mechanical arms that goes up and down 2. Ramp A Golf Cart Off A Big Tee Box The landing may be a little rough, and the cart probably wouldn’t fly that far, but still something I’veContinue reading “18 Things I Would Like To Try”
Grass, Fingernails, and Perpetually Growing Things
Well, it’s that time of the year again. Every year I hope it will be different. I put it off as long as I can, but eventually it has to be done. Eventually I have to mow the yard. I realize that it has to be done and once it’s done it looks and feelsContinue reading “Grass, Fingernails, and Perpetually Growing Things”
Pokey Little Pokers
I have a confession to make. It involves something that I have been doing for years. In fact, I have been doing it almost every single day for the last several years. Most days I do it multiple times and there have even been days where I do it 20 times or more. I’m talkingContinue reading “Pokey Little Pokers”
Well This Is Awkward…
What do you do when you are in a new place and need to use the restroom, but when you get to the door you can’t figure out if it’s a multiple or single person facility? Knocking is a good option if it turns out to be a single, but if it’s a multiple personContinue reading “Well This Is Awkward…”
3…2…1…0
Sometimes while I am driving I will start counting down from 3 and when I get to 0 I either point, snap, or finger shoot at the clock and hope I timed it just right so the minute changes at that very moment. I also do this with wall clocks, traffic lights, long stretches ofContinue reading “3…2…1…0”
First…Third…What About Second?
I often hear people talk about Third World countries. I occasionally hear people talk about First World countries. I don’t recall ever hearing anything about Second World countries. Are there Second World countries? Or are Third World countries just so bad that they aren’t considered just one step down from First World countries, so theyContinue reading “First…Third…What About Second?”
Pump It Up
When I’m not stopping my total gas purchase on a number pattern, I like to try to let off the pump at a predetermined total. I know that I can’t possibly be the only who does…in fact, if I had to guess I would say that about 92.6% of all gas pumpers have tried thisContinue reading “Pump It Up”
Does Anybody Know What Time It Is?
If you ever see me looking down at my watch for an inordinate amount of time it’s probably not because I have somewhere important to be or because I have forgotten how to read time. If you see me having a staring contest with my watch it’s probably because I am waiting to see aContinue reading “Does Anybody Know What Time It Is?”
