  • A Good Turn. A Bad Turn.

    Like most of what I write about, life. https://www.police1.com/officer-safety/articles/how-a-bad-turn-led-to-a-good-turn-OECXd1Wa5RxzDAku #lawenforcement #deputies #Deputy

  • Peecyclers? Count me in!

    Meet the Peecyclers. Their Idea to Help Farmers Is No. 1. When I first saw this story, I was tickled. I love peeing outside. At concerts, on long trips, at night when I take the dog for bedtime pee. It has variously annoyed or embarrassed boyfriends over the years. All…

  • The highest and best use for recycled water!

    The highest and best use for recycled water! Beer made from recycled toilet water Well, these guys are late to the party. The Florida Water Reuse Association along with Hillsborough County had a competitive brewing competition in which each registrant received five gallons of treated wastewater to use. No one…

  • PURE: Purify Useable Resources for the Environment.

    For decades the City of Tampa has considered options for its 50 million gallons per day of wastewater production. Right now, it goes into Tampa Bay. Some would like to see that water cleaned and reused others think Tampa Bay is better off for the freshwater infusion. Until now. A…

  • Tick. Tock.

    In 1947 scientists developed the Doomsday clock as a metaphor for how close we are to destroying the one planet we have with our powerful bombs. According to the clock, it’s 100 seconds to midnight. The clock hasn’t moved for three years. It started at seven minutes to midnight. Since…

  • The Monkey Queen can’t get the ape she wants

    It is rare to have a female as the alpha, so she has a tough job anyway. You know, the monkey boys probably didn’t just bow and accept her. Especially since she overthrew the male alpha, something that hadn’t occurred in the 70 years the clan has been observed. Now,…

  • The Chairs on the Titanic

    The Chairs on the Titanic

    Today I took my own advice. Since I was in my early twenties, I’ve been in charge of someone at work. Over time, the staff grew and became more complex, requiring a management structure. Five people reporting to a manager can vary depending on who’s in and what they do.…

  • Nutritional Blood Analysis

    Nutritional Blood Analysis

    Nutritional Blood Cell Analysis Until a few weeks ago, I had never heard of it. I got emails from Abbey’s health food store, and there was an invitation to a nutritional blood cell analysis. “It can tell you things that your annual blood test cannot.” REEEEAAALLLY? Interesting. If it told…

  • Did you miss the mid-January asteroid?

    I didn’t miss it, I just didn’t want to know. Ukraine hadn’t started yet, but the Jan 6 Committee was hard at work. Dr. Fauci was refusing to say that the pandemic was winding down. That Rabbi threw a chair at a gunman and the hostages escaped. The whole vax/not…

  • So the Earth’s atmosphere is warming while its core is cooling

    The Earth’s core is cooling faster than scientists thought. Well of course it is. Because there’s not enough going on in our world. Election challenge(s). Insurrection. Covid. Inflation. Ukraine and Russia. Exploding undersea volcanoes and the planet core is cooling (or maybe those are related?) So, the outside of the…
