Great Investment

 The Monarchy is a great business for Britain. Tourism. Stories galore. 2,800 diamonds in the Crown alone. Gotta love all the pomp and pageantry. I hung out with a guard in front of Buckingham Palace and got to witness a royal movement. Prince Andrew sped by in a car looking like a business man. I'd have preferred gold and fancy fabrics and such. I've never figured just what is so taxing about royal duties and walking around dressed up in goofy uniforms. I'm an American and don't get it I guess. 

Tip-Toe back behind a decision and you'll discover cold hard cash every time.

 Then as we seen in 'One Virus One Gift' personalities morph from the pot of gold. " Bank Accounts are the true measure of a human being.

War

 Lot of money to be had in making war. Sorry to see it'll be around long after I'm gone. I was honored to be with folks who take time each week to protest war. No agenda. No nothing. While hanging out with these patriots we were flipped off by the very young people who would have to fight the war and dodge bullets. I'm sporting the tan pants by the way. My advice to you is to read The Bee Killer and see if you still feel the same way about organized killing as in war.

He's Back

 Been a run and a half this year I tell ya. Great to be back. Lets make it interesting.

Me on Tweeter?

Crazy World

 Man, I've been waltzing around the world these last couple of months and have to say it's a big bad crazy world we all call home out there. Where do we start on our mission of discovery?

Inspired

Every summer I spend time looking for America. Excited about writing possibilities. Please message me with ideas. I was hanging out in Ellsworth, Maine last year and boom, 'The Rainbow Flag Allegiance' happened.

Yellowstone

So I'm in Big Sky and it's like big money settles here to play. Then when a bear steals bird feed from the feeders it's time to 'do something about it'. So who's living in who's house? Also . . . while I've been running around America I can't uncover any signs of a a recession. I mean new houses going up and huge bus style campers pulling a boat and wait, another trailer full of four wheelers. Did I mention the five thousand dollar bikes hung on the last trailer. Call the cops. I mean somethings going on here. Right?

Sense of Entitlement

 Nothing worse than this. Right?

Wisconsin

 Today it's a Country Club book signing in America's Dairy Land.

Great Whites and Grizzles

North Atlantic Shark hits a seal off my bow to Grizzly Country up Paradise Valley. Exhilarating without a doubt. Hope this summer finds you hammering on this thing called life.

Oh C'mon Man

We can do it. Conserve. Walk to work. Ride a bike. Canoe and leave the outboard at home. Carpool. Give up golf (for just a year) and hike in State Parks. Read Noam Chompsky. Form groups to identity mechanisms of conservation. One direction complaining makes us look - oh so - entitled. While I'm at it. Airline numbers are down due to less flights which is benefiting the environment. Here's a novel idea . . . with money saved we could make donations to the people of Urkraine.

Pride Flag on Deer Isle

 

Proud moment. I got to stand with those who dare to protest for peace. Imagine John Lennon and what he'd think.

LGBT versus Russia

I see the LGBT community is supporting Ukraine against the dark forces of Mother Russia. Your bravery shall never be questioned. 

Experiance

They do it over and over. Writers who never were cops write story after story about police officers. John Sanford anyone?

Lawn Mowing

So I'm asked in Wisconsin how we can survive the gasoline crunch. I know . . . stop mowing grass. It'll help. Right? 

And in Todays World

 Reading could be our only hope. Check this out from Turkey. 

ISTANBUL — Istanbul's LGBTQ Pride organizers say more than 360 people were detained by police Sunday following a ban on all Pride events. Kaos GL, a leading LGBTQ rights organization, said all detained were being freed Monday after dealing with the police.

And so

as I was saying . . . lawyers are paid to take up a side. Ain't about right or wrong. Its about a position. So now some are wondering about Roe being over-turned.

Time To Read

With all this Pride Flag Thing happening pick up The Rainbow Flag Allegiance and understand. Really understand with it's all about. 

Book Tour

Headed to the Atlantic. Will keep ya posted on the daily grind. Nothing back from Stephen King yet. Would love a couple of minutes with him. Hey Mister King, want company on one of your strolls? Free book in it for you! Otherwise . . . If I don't see you in the Future, I'll see ya in the Pasture.
