 The last time I was at the airport to take a flight.  I stopped at a restaurant for a bite to eat before my flight took off.  Like most travelers I now arrive way too earlier expecting long delays and find myself with over an hour to kill before I can board.  The seen at the restaurant astonished me.  The place was packed.  There was a single narrow table near the front that I managed to move some luggage to ...

Utter darkness and soft, pressing silence surrounds me. I feel myself drawn back along the force-lines of my vision, and the dream begins. I feel my spine begin to arch backward, almost as if my head wants to touch my tail. Suddenly, awful chittering sounds! Squeals, whistles, and chirps fill my mind, and all around me is black, shiny and chitinous. I feel my own scorpion’s tail, rising up from my backside as I ...

I grew up in the age before cell phones and was not introduced to computers until college.  I got interested in computers right away.  I hung out in the computer labs and was soon teaching others how to use them.  I went on to have a career as a network engineer because technology has always fascinated me.  Even so technology to me has always been a tool that I use to communicate, create, calculate, and design.  It has been the ...

What’s better?  To have a million dollars or to earn a million dollars?  Most people including my sons would probably say the former.  They are probably convinced that it’s all about having and not about earning.  Who can blame them. The world seems to revolve around the rich or at least the ones that appear to be rich.  Who wouldn’t want all the appearances of being rich?  The cars, the trips, the fancy phones, and the cool clothes.  It all ...

I grew up watching TV and movies as many of my generation did. We even had a few video games but they were mostly the basic arcade style. Not the highly graphic immersion style of today. I’ve played many of these as well but that was later in life after I became an adult. Back in the 70s and 80s there were even some TV shows with violence and horror movies too. I can remember a few nights going to ...

We’ve all heard the stories and legends of those that were the chosen ones. They were instilled at birth or by another with special virtues and skills that set them apart from everyone else. Everything comes naturally to them. They require no effort to accomplish great tasks. They feel no fear but may doubt their abilities. They have intellect and wisdom far above our own. They may not have acquired greatness yet but it’s just a matter of time until ...

I met my wife in the summer of 1984.  I had returned home from my sophomore year at college and was working to earn enough money to enroll for the fall semester at Boise State University.  I started working at this Ice Cream Novelty business a couple of summers ago.  After working previously as a driver I had been recently promoted to manager.  Kimberly got hired as a driver and I noticed her right ...

In movies and television today it’s popular and okay to be mediocre and average. There are many shows that portray people living with dead end jobs, messed up family lives, and even addictions. In watching these shows you get the idea that this is the way life is supposed to be so just settle in. The characters have lost all hope of a better life and have become sarcastic about it. They are stuck in a rut of family drama, ...
