10,000 Thanks !
Back in 2008, I started out with a few posts with no idea where this was going. Today, I thank you -- all those who've come by, clicked through, read, listened, watched, pondered, or smiled along the way. It's been a joy to keep adding to this space, like building a Tibetan mandala, one grain of sand at a time.

Relief for Drowning Pakistan
When disaster struck in Haiti, in the form of a hurricane, the US government and citizenry rallied to support the devastated population there. After all, Haitians live all over this country, and they are our neighbors.

Disclaimer: Dimestore Wisdom Has Its Cost
Shouldn't we be calling this "Dollarstore" wisdom now? Whatever the name, these casual truths and observations have there place and sometimes, it seems, I think that place is here.
Admittedly, we're all wise and simultaneously naïve, so the net gain is nearly negligible. Does that mean I shouldn't comment here on the state of American malaise, consumerism, simple pleasures, or the like?
The answer to that and other questions posed here is of no real consequence. Therefore, I'll continue to spout off on whatever I dare and the lack of comment on any of it will speak more to its worth than could the words themselves.
In other words and with significantly more brevity, "Boo-hoo!"

Friggin' freezing in here, y'all. Period.
Sorry to the very few who have lain eyes here, but you'll have to pause for a stretch before you'll have the pleasure of squandering any more time perusing this glommed together ball of blog. Here it goes into hibernation...for the time being.
