Reading part three of the Girl With The Dragon Tattoo Trilogy
I know it is called something else, but that is what the trilogy is to me. It all started with seeing the movie and coming away very impressed. Turns out reading the other two books on the iPad is just as entertaining as the movie, especially with a half hour train ride each way to and from work. - The whole JPMorgan thing makes me lean towards ( Read more... ) -
Another election cycle has begun
We do not know if there will be any Democratic challengers but we know who the three top GOP candidates are. It's really horrid how they, on either side, get sucked into personally attacking each other. I wish all would just focus on what they have accomplished and what they are prepared to do in the future. We need to get out of debt. We need to ( Read more... ) -
Long time no see
We are finally thawing out here in the Northeast. People are lightening up. Soon more people will be walking everywhere. Already there are bicycles out and about. I am looking forward to Bike Week in Daytona next week while at the same time enjoying walks to and from the office from the train station. Playing lots of keyboards and guitar. Being a ( Read more... ) -

Fall is around the corner
So here we are in September and the weather is getting cool. The change of seasons is nice as long as you can handle the late fall blues that set it, which are good for being creative, songwriting, poetry, prose and so on. It's a great time to walk because the bugs all get frozen in time until next Spring. You can walk near any stream or pond you ( Read more... ) -
it's getting COLD again...
Actually it is only cool to mild Brrr, but still, will be freezing and snow soon enough, but it is still motorcycle season so that is a good thing. The war drags on in Afghanistan. It is a civil war. It cannot be won with so many tribes throughout the country. As history has taught so many, you cannot afford to fight a war halfway around the world ( Read more... ) -
They accused a man of plotting to bomb malls today
He lives in the suburbs outside of Boston and I do not know where the government gets their facts but you don't just arrest someone in the middle of the burbs for nothing. I also do not see how plotting to blow up malls solves anything. It just further rattles the hornet's nest and sends the guy(s) to hell, though they would beg to differ. God is a ( Read more... ) -
Trading war
trading one war for another
killin a sister

head cut off instead
walk thru the valley
into fire fight
tracers flashin everywhere
