Cheap Parking – Money, Economy And A Storyline
I don’t give investment advice. I don’t even listen much to investment advice. But I do like sticking a litmus probe into some cavity of society and taking ph reading. So I wrote this several weeks ago and withheld it. I didn’t want to jinx the market. You see, in my quest to understand money … Read more
Adrienne’s Back From The Front
What am I doing? Vodka Boy and I have so little in common. He told me the last time I saw him, while he was chopping beans to dump into a pan on his hot plate in his motel room, that he was diabetic. Type 2. Oh, man, this guy is going to be in … Read more

Open Eyes
Small and close-minded people always march to the tune of fear, played by the few struggling to hold on to the last vestiges of their power. ~ Every battle this country has fought and won against bigotry and oppression came with a price. Each person that decided to stand, demand and then fight for the … Read more
What Do You Know?
Guys who know bears get eaten by bears. People who know horses get kicked by a horse. A farmer who knows chickens has been set upon by a rooster. Trial and error, making the mistakes to make gains, making mistakes to set the precedent, falling from virtue and falling to it. That’s what jived this … Read more
Bring Your Camera
“Come with me to deliver this load of mulch,” Bruce said last night after supper. I never know what our trips will bring. He doesn’t usually ask me along; so I know when he does invite me, there’s something he wants me to see. “Bring your camera,” he added as I walked toward … Read more
Grandma’s Lilacs
I. THE BURIAL OF THE DEAD APRIL is the cruellest month, breeding Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing Memory and desire, stirring Dull roots with spring rain. Winter kept us warm, covering Earth in forgetful snow, feeding A little life with dried tubers. –T. S. Eliot … Read more
“I’m Sorry”
With my tax documents on the front seat of the CRV this morning, I drove to town. Mrs. Gordon was waiting for me at her apartment complex north of the city. She’s an elderly lady who retired from GE years ago, but prepares taxes to supplement her Social Security. I hate the main drag … Read more
Adrienne’s Ramble
We didn’t have well-defined role models when I was growing up. We were the in-between generation. Girls graduating with me were unsure of the future. Only a handful went on to university and those who did, I’ve learned, ended up getting married soon after and their degrees went on as a pipe dream or if … Read more

Looking For That Chemistry
Remember the scene in Little Women when Jo tells Laurie she doesn’t love him? I was baffled that she was turning down this handsome and wealthy young man who obviously adored her. She didn’t feel any chemistry for the man and she crushed him by turning him down. She pursued her career instead and when … Read more
Geo Awareness – Earthquake Spring Season
Sometimes I hate being bang on. The following is from the archives of the ReadThisPlease forum. Last week, the writers were forecasting the spring lineup for earthquakes. Seems that big ones happen every 188 days or so.

Where Is My Professor Bhaer?
Meet and Greet I saved the hair. It was passable and didn’t look like a botched home experiment like I feared it would. I noticed a difference in how people reacted to me around town that first day. Blondes are considered fun-loving and approachable. Strangers smiled more readily at me. When I’m sporting any other … Read more
