Sadly this is probably an appropriate ending….
Punxsutawney Phil, the King of the Groundhogs, was found dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound -- apparently stressed out after predicting an early spring.

You Never Know About These Old Guys!!!


Ron Chestna was stopped by the police around 2 a.m. and was asked where he was going at that time of night.



Ron replied, "I'm on my way to a lecture about alcohol abuse and the effects it has on the human body, as well as smoking and staying out late."

The officer asked, "Really? Who's giving that lecture at this time of night?"

Ron replied, "That would be my wife."

Sky Watch!!

Share your skies and enjoy the beauty from around the world!! 

The sky is that beautiful old parchment in which the sun and the moon keep their diary. ~Alfred Kreymborg
You must not blame me if I do talk to the clouds. ~Henry David Thoreau
A pessimist sees only the dark side of the clouds, and mopes; a philosopher sees both sides, and shrugs; an optimist doesn't see the clouds at all — he's walking on them. ~Leonard Louis Levinson

       wide world's joy.

What Can I Say?

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
