How would you design the city of the future? Back in the early 90’s I played a game called SimCity. The black and white simulation game allowed me to design towns that could develop into cities of the future. Of course, they would be hampered by having leftover technologies, like telephone poles that littered theContinue reading “The Shape of Things to Come”

Top 10 Movies
What are your top ten favorite movies? Asking for a top ten list of movies is a bit daunting—you see, I write my daily blog entry during my first cup of coffee and I’m not capable of higher order thinking this early. But I will give you my top three. Incidentally, for a film class,Continue reading “Top 10 Movies”
No Place Like Home?
What do you love about where you live? Recently I was renewing my clearances—those hoops we need to jump through in Pennsylvania after the antics of Sandusky, Paterno, et al at Penn State made everyone who works with children a pedophile until proven innocent. One of the requirements on the forms is to list allContinue reading “No Place Like Home?”
Second my Emotion
What positive emotion do you feel most often? In looking at this prompt, I first asked myself, “What are the positive emotions?” My mind then flew back to Catholic school and free associated learning about the different mysteries of the rosary: Joyful, Sorrowful, and…the other one. I can never remember it without googling. Glorious! AndContinue reading “Second my Emotion”
Goooooooaaaaalllllls!
How do you plan your goals? How do I plan my goals? This is an interesting question. I see this planning akin to the objectives of a character in a play, with both short and long term goals. And I think they arise and I work toward them in different ways. Once I thought: I’dContinue reading “Goooooooaaaaalllllls!”
This is a Test…
Create an emergency preparedness plan. I’ve had a couple brushes with emergency plans in the past, some of which I’ve documented on my podcast, Audio Chimera. When exploring the building where Thom McAn was housed, my manager and I followed the pneumatic tube system up and down, and discovered the bomb shelter materials stored inContinue reading “This is a Test…”
OMG! Awesome!
What is a word you feel that too many people use? Here’s a prompt that, as soon as I read it, I said the word that I feel too many people use. But—it’s not in the title of this post. The first time I heard someone say “O-M-G!” I was stunned. Sure, you might sendContinue reading “OMG! Awesome!”
Peace
What brings you peace? There’s a lot of turmoil going on right now, so much so I won’t make a joke about Turmoil being some kind of cleanser that leaves things messier than started. Or maybe I will! Because saying stupid/witty improvised comments makes me happy, and I wish more people around me appreciated theContinue reading “Peace”
I Profess!
What profession do you admire most and why? This is an interesting prompt from one perspective: I guess I’m supposed to pick some particular profession, like the old rhyme/song: Rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief,Doctor, lawyer, Indian chief. Sorry, that’s a remnant from my less socially aware childhood. It should be Native American chief,Continue reading “I Profess!”
Open for Business
If you were going to open up a shop, what would you sell? When I was a kid I loved watching the TV show Dark Shadows. As an adult, I found the bloopers on YouTube and howled (like Quentin the werewolf!) with laughter. One of the funniest things happened as someone entered a shop andContinue reading “Open for Business”
