AmRev 2: Echoes of England?

As we delve into history this morning, we found it particularly ominous that democrats in Washington are again/still attempting to remove president Trump from office.

Coping: The “National Bedside Survey”

Here’s an odd concept that popped up while I was waking up a few morning’s back: I wondered if there has even been a study to see if there is a correlation between what is on a person’s nightstand and how their health works out long term? When you think about it, that might be … Read More

Coping: Too Late to Learn Music?

Been thinking about something a fair bit lately.  We have this recording studio – and in it are a fair number of instruments.  But we can only play a handful of them.
