Impulse Decisions
There are many people who make many impulse decisions: tattoos, cars, quitting their jobs, etc. There are others who refuse to make decisions. They will ride the fence as long as they can, perhaps, fearful of offending someone or making the wrong decision. I know a few who will flowchart their decision process and analyze…

Grammar Idiots
I cannot understand how educated people can be so incredibly stupid when it comes to grammar. I admit that I am no grammar king, and I look up a lot of the rules, especially when writing. What I cannot understand is how people function in this world of texting and emailing. I know way too…

Not a Sissy-ass…
I think it is difficult for most people to not be a sissy-ass. I’m not talking about the weakling, can’t defend him/herself type sissy-ass. I’m talking about the general term that defines us as fearful people in which such fear makes it difficult to act. We all have a fear of some sort that makes…

Back to Basics
I hate hearing that term. It seems over used, but perhaps, because no one listens to it. Our lives are very complex. Some tiny-ass country half way around the world can have an effect on how munch money is in my retirement! With our lives all intertwined to a degree that few of us can…

Editing Continues…
Editing continues on “The Amanai Deception”. I will not get that part done by my original date, but that is not always a bad thing. It does take time to go through 279 pages multiple times. Also, this round of editing needs to be complete before going to the grammar police. I, personally, hate poor grammar,…

Contradictions
We, humans, are a walking, talking contradiction. The traits that we tend to hate in others are generally traits we, ourselves, hold. That is not meant to be a concrete observation; however, there is some truth to that. We will deny it, obviously, but that does not make it any less true. Some of us…

Everyone Has a Vice
Everyone has a vice whether they admit to it or not. Those who say they do not have a vice, either haven’t found it yet (youth and inexperience) or refuse to acknowledge it (denial). There are several typical vices: drinking, drugs, gambling, eating, and sex. There are many others. Some cannot get enough of Camaros and…

The Amanai Resistance: Second Edition
After “The Amanai Deception” is finished and published, I am going to republish “The Amanai Resistance”. The second edition is not going to be anything too major. I’ll correct some minor grammar mistakes that completely bug me, add some information about this second book towards the end, and redesign the cover a bit to make…

Why We Do Things…
I’ve been questioning why people do the things they do. It has always amazed me how dumb people can be. Recently, I’ve taken a more self reflective view and questioning why I do some of the things that I do… or don’t do. There are many reasons for many actions or inaction. Not going into…

Can’t Believe It…
I guess it doesn’t matter how many times something is read, the mind fixes mistakes on the run, and it is amazing how many stupid mistakes are left. I wish I could be perfect every time, but I’m never perfect once. I hope it will all be fixed before the final publishing, but knowing there…
