Always curious, always reflecting, always thinking. Mental essayist. I compose great essays in the shower, etc. and never write them.

I may invest in a HAM radio and license. My father had his for more than 50 years (W6DMO and W7GZZ). It might be a last ditch way to keep up with the world.

I cried for the first time this morning since my best friend died in April 2021. Today I realized that I still harbored hope my country could be protected from the tribulations we face in the next many years.

These two books started me thinking and questioning US media. "The Unreality Industry: The Deliberate Manufacturing of Falsehood and What it is Doing to Our Lives" by Ian Mitroff and Warren G. Bennis (1989)
"Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business" by Neil Postman
