There you were, an innocent seven-year-old, and you accidentally walked in on your mom (or dad) getting dressed. Don’t they know how to lock their door? You saw all kinds of things you didn’t want to see, and you’re traumatized for life. Try as you might, there is no way to ever erase that image. Ever. Therapy… Continue Reading

Innovative Warfare Technology

Are you like me and tired of the same old ways that wars are fought? I sure am. Shoot here, bomb there, blow away the other side’s blower-uppers. The basic tactics don’t seem to change, only the increased devastation caused by the newest weapons employed. So here’s what should be done: we need to boldly… Continue Reading

Idle Time

Is idle time the devil’s playground? Well, for the devil, it probably is.

Before you become so dismissive, think about it. There has to be a way to do something productive with all of that… Continue Reading

Lost and Found

OK, I found it, so who lost it? I’ve been searching and searching for its rightful owner, but to no avail. Putting up posters on telephone poles and handing out flyers has not worked either. I have therefore resorted to the mighty internet. Everyone is connected to the internet, and I’m hoping the rightful owner… Continue Reading

ET

Scientists have found evidence that there was water on Mars at some point. You know what that means? It means that the Martians ran out of water and came to colonize the earth. Yes, they came here not only to survive but to thrive. My guess is that they arrived to find a planet full… Continue Reading
