Juneau is the capital of Alaska, but did you know that you cannot drive there from anywhere?

You can fly into Juneau or you can take a ferry to Juneau, but you can’t actually drive there. There are no roads into Juneau. Can you imagine not being able to drive to the […]

Stained Glass Studio Humor Helps To Overcome Adversity - Don’t Be Like Milo

Sunday, December 7th, 2008

Back in 1985, I had an experience which really was a set back for me. It was at a time when a lot of pressure was building. I wasn’t sure which direction I wanted my stained glass art to go. We had experienced a house fire and I needed to concentrate on rebuilding. I had […]

Wanting Signs: A Follow-Up

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008

I am addressing something that I should have addressed long ago, which I guess is the same that can be said for an envelope that needs to be sent to Milwaukee, except I don’t know anyone in Milwaukee, so whose name should I put on the address label? As it turns out, over 400 […]

Pimp By Proximity

Friday, November 14th, 2008

When my youngest brother was about 3 years old, he was experimenting with inventing words that sounded interesting to him. On one particular occasion, he discovered a funny new word that he invented for himself which turned out to be something not so “new.” Speaking his new word proudly, he marched around the […]

It’s Time to Exempt Me From Income Tax

Friday, November 14th, 2008

I’m 74 years old. Why do I still have to fill out income tax forms? Doesn’t President Bush know I hate it?
The President likes lowering taxes. Why not drop income taxes on pensions, annuities, and Social Security. That would let a lot of us old folks off the hook for life. It should start the […]
