Shiny happy people. The college rock band REM sang about them a few decades ago. Supposedly, there were “Shiny happy people holding handsShiny happy people laughing.” But as Paula Cole once asked where’d all the cowboys go, I ask where’d all the happy people go? Seriously! I like […]
Everyone gossips. Or so some say. I don’t readily believe that. There are some who are vaults and can take a secret to their grave. However, I do believe 99.9% do gossip. But there is a spectrum. Gossip can go from mild and vanilla to spicy and a […]

Boris Johnson resigned as UK Prime Minister. I’m not here to debate whether that was a right or wrong move. I will say that his resignation speech was interesting. To me, at least. Maybe a few others. In his speech, he noted some of his accomplishments. He did […]
