A Common Tongue

If I were going to sneak into a country, I’d have a check list of things I’d need to do before heading on my journey.  Pretty high up on that list would be to learn their language.  If I didn’t have the time or ability to do that, I’d figure

Worse than the Disease

According to the CDC’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), as of last Friday, there have been 609 “adverse events” after being injected with a COVID-19 vaccine that have resulted in death.  Now, I can’t tell by looking at the data if the deceased were already deathly sick from something

Building Better People

A couple of days ago, I posted a quote of mine.  Maybe someone said it before I did but I don’t remember hearing it.  It looked like this: I started thinking some more about it and decided that I should give it some additional attention. We’ve all heard (and some

Call Me Crazy

If today I said that I identified as a woman, those who know me would believe I was joking.  They would think that it’s just another one of those things I do to see if I can get a reaction out of people or to make a point. If tomorrow

Great Expectations

I ran into a friend of mine earlier this week.  Let’s call her “Jessica”.  She was all excited about the possibility of getting a COVID-19 vaccine.  The conversation went something like this. Jessica: My whole family is planning on getting the vaccine as soon as possible. Me: Why? Jessica: Because

I’m not a person who normally buys into conspiracy theories.  You know what I’m talking about.  I’m talking about the crazy scenarios that people invent to connect otherwise unconnectable events.  While I do believe the government keeps us in

(Still) Virus Free

If you believe the experts, I should have had COVID-19 by now.  Because I haven’t bought into the COVID panic, and I don’t take any precautions.  I don’t social distance and I don’t wear a mask while driving my car, walking my dog or riding my bike.  In fact, the

The Magic Date

Late last summer, I jokingly told my dad that the virus would magically disappear on November 4th because that was the day after the election.  Looking back, I can see I was a bit naïve.  The magic date wasn’t November 4th, it was January 20th. You see, if the virus

Let Girls Be Girls

I’m about to say something that’s likely to trigger a lot of people: Boys and girls are not the same. There.  I said it.  It doesn’t seem like that should be controversial, but apparently it is. Let’s continue. If you stood a boy and a girl side-by-side and asked anyone

Bescumber

I learned a new word last week and it has quickly climbed the ranks to be my most favorite word.  That word is “bescumber”. It’s a wonderful word.  I like the way it sounds.  Say it with me…bescumber. Having grown up on a dairy farm, I bescumbered for years and
