I posted a blog back on June 14 about my fondness for conspiracy theories. One I mentioned was the alien conspiracy. I said then that it was one conspiracy I thought was very possible. Recently, this story appeared. A top Harvard scientist, Dr Abraham “Avi” Loeb says the material found at the bottom of the …
There’s a joke that goes, How do you know someone is vegan? The answer: They’ll tell you. It’s supposed to be snarky—or just plain insulting. The idea being that vegans talk about veganism all the time. Some probably do, but not most. Take me, for instance. I’ll bet you had no idea that I’ve been …
Those who know me well, know that I love me a good conspiracy theory. I’m not saying I totally believe any of them, but the whole idea fascinates me. Was there a second shooter on the famous “grassy knoll” when JFK was killed? I don’t know. But I do think there are things the public …
It is said that every writer has a muse. Sometimes they are portrayed as a person in the writer’s life. But some of us are less mundane and have a more…well…interesting muse. Muses come from Greek mythology. If you want to know more, here is a link. But today’s muse is more of an entity …
So, today is March 14th or 3/14 if you use US date conventions. (If not, welcome to 14/3/23), but feel free to join us in the festivities! In case you shoved all your math classes out of your head to make room for Netflix binging, 3.14 is pi. Just p and i, no e. Which …

Today in the US is Thanksgiving. It’s a day when it’s traditional to consider what we’re thankful for. Today I’m thankful for my nice, little apartment. I’m thankful for being given the gift of writing because it allows me to be productive. I’m thankful for my friends. I know I’m terrible about calling, writing, emailing, …
Spooky Time It’s October 31. Pumpkins are everywhere along with colorful foliage, and scary movies. I love Halloween. It’s a fun holiday with candy and adorable kids in costume. It’s more, though. It’s also Samhain (pronounced sow-in). Samhain is an ancient Celtic holiday that is still celebrated by Wiccans. It is believed to be a …
Yesterday somebody who was really important to me died, but I never had the chance to meet her. She was Nichelle Nichols, and she was an American treasure. You may know her as Uhura on the original Star Trek. What you might not know is that she wanted to quit the show, but was encouraged …
There’s a heatwave in Europe. I know, for most of us, that seems like something we don’t need to worry about. After all, we have plenty on our plates as it is. But we do need to think about this. The UK, for instance, is known for being cool and damp. It’s not today, my …
