Bob the Cat was interviewed one day
by a curious kitten
who wouldn’t stay away
“How did your ears get that way?“
But Bob wouldn’t say
“How old are you?”
Bob told him to go away
“What do you do all day?”
Bob replied “Skip the survey”
so
the kitten finally had to concede
the old grouch wouldn’t proceed
and there’d be no interview
no wise worldview
from an old cat
like that

Why is there always one clown in a crowd who asks people witnessing an entertaining, strange, or scary event, “Did you see that?“
Why do some men and women wear pants so tight they rip if they bend over? And, for God’s sake, why are so many of them huge?
Why would anyone buy a wristwatch that just tells the time?
Why do some Evangelical Christians today get to pick and choose which of the 10 Commandments to follow?
Why does America have more people in prisons than any of the other top industrial nations in the world?
Why don’t train boxcars only carry boxes?
Why are you taking the time to read these silly questions?
A puzzle missing pieces is forever fated to be negated.
Somewhere among the missing pieces recovered in the fire they discovered another empire
If missing pieces are hidden for posterity they loose their familiarity
Missing pieces can be found in common places like the ground Sometimes they are a telling sound
Every mystery has a key or two, missing pieces that can give a clue. Possibly a chance for a breakthrough.
There are missing pieces in my memory due to PTSD. I am no longer the man I use to be. Yet somehow, I’m happy.
I’ve seen the elephant, but nothing like this!
I use to watch The Twilight Zone, a television anthology series created by Rod Serling.
The show pushed the limits of reality with psychological horror, fantasy, science fiction, suspense, and psychological thrillers, often concluding with a macabre or unexpected twist, and usually with a moral.
But as strange as Serling’s stories were they pale in the light of our 21st century realities.
Who would have thought America would some day be led by a racist man-child who thought it was okay to grab women’s vaginas?
Who would have thought America would become a laughingstock because we have a narcissist Liar-In-Chief leading us?
Who would have thought we’d be so close to a nuclear war with Korea? It’s a modern day Cuban missile crisis, but we have added the factor of two emotional stunted world leaders threatening each other.
Who would have thought that there would be a renaissance of racism in America in the 21st century, as the alt-right stepped into the lime light after Trump was elected?
Who would have thought that the American people would become so dumbed down by fake news that they would elect a greedy con man president?
Who would have thought something called the internet would change the world?
As It Stands, I’m 66-years old and have “seen the elephant“ as the oldtimers use to say, but nothing compares to today!
If a tree falls in the middle of a forest, does anyone hear it?
The answer is, of course, the wildlife hear it really well, especially the ones that were living in that fallen tree.
If a blog hardly gets any traffic what is the answer?
More than likely, it wasn’t set-up properly and no one sees it on the web. This is especially true if you’re an amateur, like me. Blogging content is also obviously important.
I made a few adjustments yesterday, but I’m not sure they’re making any difference yet. Question:
By the way, how did you find my blog? Moving on…
What were the first words ever spoken on the telephone?
“Mr. Watson–come here–I want to see you.” – Alexander Graham Bell, inventor of the telephone
What would you have said?
I thought about a reply, or two. How about, “Hello! Can you hear me?” Or perhaps, “Hello! Do you deliver pizza?”
Communication is so important.
The best communication takes place when two, or more people, are in the room and everyone is contributing.
When you see someone walking down the street and talking out loud in what appears to be a one-way conversation, what comes to your mind?
The person is crazy. Or, the person has an earbud in, and is talking with someone else on a cell phone. To determine which it is casually look at their ears – you should get your answer pretty quickly.
As It Stands, when I was younger (I won’t say how young) I thought animals could talk, but they only did it when humans weren’t around.
