Been finding solace and reflection in poetry of late. I have been taking a dive into Emily Dickinson.

Just sharing for its oddity factor (or the new normal?) Just want to state that I have no horse in this race and I take no sides. www.wcpo.com/news/norther... #bewilderment

While I've never done any drugs outside of a few beers, I have watched Speed Racer racer (English dub version) as an adult. I suspect it's as close to a psychedelic drug trip as I will get. #Speedracer #Surreal

Eric Roberts the actor is amazing! Not to say there aren't other Eric Roberts that are quite amazing but this is the only one that I'm aware of. #VoiceActing #Mongul #Acting

I use Spotify’s filters on my liked songs sometimes, but the categories are odd. Why have both "Rock" and "Rock & Roll"? The latter is supposed to mean older rock? but it’s not consistent. I treat those two terms interchangeably. (And please try to resist Hating on me for using Spotify)

As Dirty Harry wisely said "A man's got to know his limitations" this is why I've always kept track of mine in an Excel spreadsheet. Though, as I get older, I'm thinking about switching to a more robust Microsoft SQL Server for this purpose.

Wouldn't it be easier at this point to just send a notice to the dozen or so people whose information on the Internet has NOT been compromised? #Irresponsible #both_parties_do_not_care #Goodluck #Cannot_Have_Nice_Things

I was using a work cafeteria microwave then someone abruptly announced to me "Are you ready for some more snow?" I was so proud of myself for showing restraint. I did not yell at her. I did not toss my drink on her. Wars have been started over far less. #HateSnow #FoulLanguage #Forgiveness

"Follow me! I know the way!" is a phrase you will never hear me utter... If you do hear me say this some sort of intervention is probably called for. #confusion #Lost #MayorOfSimpleton

My need to be understood always conflicts with my self awareness that I'm just not that interesting.

Just a little surprised that my spray can of olive oil has 568 servings per container and a serving size is measured 1/3 of a second. I have never seen a serving size expressed in time before.

Why should I care about the Grammys? I ask honestly and want opinions. Is it just a popularity contest? As an artist, the recognition would be great, but as a listener, my tastes are never represented. I am sure it serves a purpose for the industry but didn't get anything from it.

Half noticed a commercial with an animated slipper wearing sunglasses walking around and I immediately thought "I wonder what drug this is selling?" Turned out to be a cruise line.

Who do I blame for the CR2032 battery being just slightly thicker than the CR2025 yet the same voltage? What was the discussion? Battery makers: "We’ve got one that almost fits—just make your device a millimeter thicker." Device manufacturers: "Nah, we’re fine." #Insanity

From Popcorn I am heading down a hopefully mindless pleasant instrumental algorithm but this one worries me. (Not familiar)

Listening to 1969's "Popcorn" by Gershon Kingsley on repeat instead of perusing news. Don't judge!

I guess it is official now that this is going to happen. It sounds like an abomination to me and yet I will try it if the opportunity presents itself. #Graeters #Cincinnati

Devo's song "Beautiful World," seems to be speaking to me during these times.

Dang you mom instilling critical thinking skills upon me. This old man is re-examining something in his life that he likes to indulge in and rationalization is starting to ebb away to the tides of evidence.
