I listen to the NPR Politics Podcast pretty well every afternoon on the drive home after work. On Friday (8/20), I *LOVED" the discussion and the chemistry evident between the three commentators. Kelsey Snell and Ayesha Roscoe are regulars on the pod, but Clare Lombardo was a voice I'd not heard prior. And when they …

Wander and Squander?
No. Go deep. Into follow-up, Catch-up, Rise-up, Giddy-up, Be up, Ready to go. Done, son, No wander, no squander.
Lyrics Post: “Jaded”
Conflict, disagreement, irresponsible governance, selfish, disease, war, rebuked love…all (and more) to be jaded by. I refuse to accept these as the last word. Circumstance and Evil will not win in the end. But this song…”Jaded”…from a while back, well, Green Day ripped through a good one here… “ Somebody keep my balanceI think I'm …
“…Nobody’s Bargain…”
“…but hell, a little touch up and a little paint…” Frankly, this lyric came to mind recently as I was thinking about myself…middle-aged guy, recently single, a little flabby, frumpy… It might sound like I’m being critical of myself, but I think it’s more just honest, Like everyone, I am who I am and where …
Slog Through
Some days, weeks, longer, Feels like we’re slogging through. Keep a little smile on the face, head down to the grindstone, thankful for what we have, Undertone though?

Live With It
Decisions you make, Live with it. Late supper time with the kids, Live with it. Last minute shopping for school clothes, Live with it. No TV after dinner, Live with it. Sub-optimal departure from a 20-year war, It sucks, There’s no good time, it turns out, Live with it.
Always Together
Soak up the weekend, soak up together.
#Afghanistan
The Taliban militias are over-running Afghanistan as the US military draws down. The people of that country deserve better. "We don't count because we're from Afghanistan. We'll die slowly in history" Tears of a hopeless Afghan girl whose future is getting shattered as the Taliban advance in the country. @AlinejadMasih @FForotan
Tick Tock
Don’t let it pass, Tick Tock, The mundane, even difficult, Don’t let it pass. Time marches on past the good and the bad, the highs and the lows, So don’t just endure, Lean-in, learn, make the lost of the moment, make the most of the Right Now, It’s maybe the best way to slow the, …
Lyrics Post: “Xanadu”
Plain and simple? Let’s RUSH. Together. I wouldn’t want to go alone. But together? YES. It’s been four years. Let’s go again. To Xanadu. "Xanadu" 'To seek the sacred river AlphTo walk the caves of iceTo break my fast on honeydewAnd drink the milk of Paradise...' I had heard the whispered tales of immortalityThe deepest …
