A Journal to impart knowledge and facts

July 22, 2015

I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done.

I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them.

I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC.

In response to "Whose Garden Is It?"

A garden in the world is nice even though life isn't perfect. Most of the earth is still beautiful. Good entry.

In response to "Write and then wait?"

One of the problems with media these days is that the audience expects instant news and analysis. Extra points ($$$) if the headline is outrageous. The old adage "think before you speak" isn't honored, neither is fact-checking nor truth.

I agree editing should never be at the same time you write.

In response to "What does this mean?"

I think it's a reminder that some people don't take accountability for their actions.

In response to "Cell phones"

I miss my landline some times because I always gave that when a phone was needed and never volunteered that I had a cell phone so I could avoid texts.

Winds Blowing Boldly

Today's refreshment: water with sliced strawberries, ice, and a touch of honey stir gently

War Chest Wednesday! From a previous challenger...

If you were the wind, what type of wind would you be?

This is an edition of Because the Earth Turns

Honestly? After some contemplation, I have to say I would be a land breeze or a sea breeze. It is difficult to choose because of the rising and falling pressure. Add gentle to moderate winds in a local setting. Of course, the Coriolis Effect gives me a Southern inclination in a Northern Hemisphere. If that's possible

Oh, Oh? I'm reminded of the book I read that tells what happens to people when the earth stops turning. I better look that up. It will definitely have an affect on the winds.

Seriously, Happy Blowing
