A Punch Is Just A Punch Do you remember what it was like before you knew the difference between a small “b,” and a small “d”? Some adult, maybe a teacher, parent or an older brother or sister would write a bunch of squiggly lines, that were supposed to have some kind of meaning. After [...]

Are You Really Paying Attention?

Instant Partner The other day I was hanging out with a friend of mine on this lake. Not really on the lake, next to it. There was this restaurant with an outdoor bar near one of the shores, or edges, or whatever you all the border between the lake the land. We were watching all [...]

Ever Expanding File Cabinets and Brain Flexibility

Stretch Your Mind I met a friend for lunch the other day. Not really a planned thing, we had bumped into each other a couple days earlier and had made tentative plans on the spot. Kind of like “I’m gonna be here, at this time,” kind of thing. So anyway, he was telling me about [...]

How Many Levels Is Your Communication?

The Depth Of Perception I was riding my bike downtown yesterday when I bumped into a friend. Not quite a friend, but an acquaintance.

How To Exploit Glitches In The System For Fun And Profit

Nice To Meet You So the other day I was out on my morning walk, (so I guess I should say the other morning) when I bumped into this old guy that I hadn’t seen before. He was some old guy that I see downtown sometimes. At first I didn’t recognize him, because he wasn’t [...]
