Susswurzel….

Tonight's bedtime crossword puzzle contained the term "susswerzel." I was tickled enough to add it to my phone dictionary. Susswerzel. Suss is a term that means "to discover by thinking." To me it's an emotive term but I'm not 100% on why. It's something simple but my brain is tired. Wurzel is a term that…

Thought for the week

"Ask questions, start bands, start revolutions, write novels, feed others, draw on everything, show up for people, pay attention, live your life, fight for the rights of others to live theirs, and never stop playing your favorite songs."  — Automne Zingg

2016 Presidential Debate

I just turned on the final debate. First thoughts: * Hillary's makeup artist and hairstylist are doing their job. Thumbs up folks.

A Reason For Faith: History, Historiography and The Enlightenment

Colavito's target is not a teacher or continuing education provider for reflexology in the United States. I have not researched her or the father in law whom Colavito…

Shall We Dance? Nashville City Council opens debate on small scale Marijuana

I recently discovered that Nashville City Council voted to permit the entrance of a small scale "decriminalization and possession" of Marijuana measure into the committee proceedings. If like me, the inner workings of government are unknown to you my readers, do note that the "first round" yes vote has not been reported as a victory.…

Snowdon….

I'm waiting for The Unemployed Philosophers Guild to create Snowdon and Manning votive candles. I plan to make one of my own to take to the movie premiere. Yup, while it may have been love that gave birth to Chelsea Manning, it may also have simply been jealously. Why yes Ms. Manning, I'm broken hearted…
