There is something about the river

Let’s take a few minutes, and spend some time in sllent contemplation of the people that deserve to be top tier. Not politicians, or kings. Not athletes. Not the religious icons (although society tries hard). My vote goes out to musicians. Specifically, composers.

Fewer fever dreams

I ADMIT IT. On sume subjects, I am late to the table. Part of my charm, I tell myself. The world is slowly moving on from our pandemic, and I have finally spotted a real result.

I will even turn on the outside lights

Going forward, I will be known for the things I did not do. Right now, there is an excursion behind a horse, going on in a nearby town. What people like to call a “hay ride” or a “sheigh ride”.  Fun for the whole family. Except, I don’t particularly want to sit on a solid bench, in the breeze from an oversized  motive force. Gas driven, but not in the sense we usually associate. I think I’ll wait for the photo record, while keeping warm. We have to make choices.

Plain toast with a hint of jelly

Manyhave come this way. Realizing that what you would like to buy doesn’t align with personal liquidity.  Imagine if there was a way to reduce prices, just a bit. Like, if our dollar better matched the currency of our neighbours. No exchange rates. I can remember those times, fondly.

Seasons change

Going to start with an earworm. A very Canadian one. The Guess Who, with No Time. Specifically, “Seasons change and so did I”.

Process, not product

First thing: my actual experience with manufacturing is limited. However, I can still draw conclusions. And my take on things, after watching some selected videos, is that Henry Ford would feel right at home with the magic of the assembly line. From tiny to magestic, the process requires that you start with the simple pieces, and from there you go to your goal. Remember, process, not product.

Are you branded?

Are you branded? Not in the sense of cowherding; cars. I have never owned my own car, but I do live in North America. I can tell you, chronologically, every car my father ever owned, including ones from personal prehistory.
