I was playing a hashtag game on Twitter: #WhatIWouldSayToTodaysYouth I posted "Buy experiences instead of things." This reply blew me away and I wanted to share-- By the way, what would YOU say to today's youth? Or, if you ARE today's youth, what would you say to tomorrow's?

I fell into You Tube today and this video caught my eye. This is a new channel for me so I thought I'd give it a go. This guy has some fascinating ideas about the Overlook, Jung, archetypes and the subconscious/conscious mind. Being a Jungian I enjoyed it.

I'm posting this in its own thread so that anyone who doesn't care can scroll past. I will only post pictures here. I promise. After a 5-hour flight from Seattle -- during which a very young child was seated behind me with requisite screaming and seat kicking -- we landed on the Big Island...

So.... is Uncle Stevie getting royalties for this? It's so close to The Running Man. Racing through a city? Check. Pursued by a professional? Check. Futuristic costumes? Check. At least the contestants aren't criminals. :barbershop_quartet_member:

Anyone else watching this? We watched the first one to see how lame it would be... but it wasn't. It's like a cross between a singing competition and a game show. It's fun to try to guess who it is. Last week I was spot on with the Unicorn. Also guessed Pineapple (though that was simple for...

I wrote this guest blog several months ago. This is on a great little blog site for those with chronic pain -- mostly young folks but they let us geezers talk occasionally ;) https://youngsickinvisible.wixsite.com/blog/single-post/2018/09/19/Guest-Post-Terys-Story

I first read this one when I was but an eighth-grader. My Bestie at the time read it and recommended it to me. We both loved the weird and creepy, which this story is. Crawford builds nicely to the tale within a story. Like SK, he places the bizarre into a mundane place. I can picture the small...

I've been obsessing on videos of abandoned places on You Tube. They just fascinate me. Especially ones where everything is left, with no sign of fire or other disaster. Just.... *poof* Weird, intriguing and sad. I really feel bad when I see amazing antiques that I just know will be left to rot...

I didn't want to threadjack KFF's thread but wanted to share this and, maybe, start a thread about these. Yesterday, my daughter's roommate forgot her Orca card - a public transportation card for the ferry - at home. She would've had to ride the bus back out here, wait for the next one (a few...

I've been keeping track of what's happening on the Big Island since the new eruptions began. It's fascinating. The best daily reports come from the military/USGS. I can watch the lava for hours. But I'm super glad we decided not to but a home in Puna

Toad Hall is for sale!!! Hey, Uncle Stevie, can I borrow $3.5 million? :heheh:

Did anyone else watch this Sunday night? It was freaking amazing!! All the actors did fantastic jobs -- Brandon Victor Dixon stole the show. Of course, Judas is the juiciest role but I've seen several productions of JCSS and not every actor nails that part. Dixon, who played Aaron Burr in...

How about things associated with sword and sorcery fantasies? Arid wastes (for the hero to trudge over)

What are those albums that you play/ed to death? The ones you turn/ed to when you need/ed an old friend? Mine include: The Long Run - Eagles Windsong - John Denver Graceland - Paul Simon Pictures At An Exhibition - Emerson, Lake & Palmer Greatest Hits - Simon and Garfunkel The Whole Story -...

"All anguish, pain and sadness leave your heart and let your road be clear..."

If you go to Google today and click on the Halloween graphic, it plays a sweet little animation. A story about a cute, wee ghost who wants to join the other kids. It tries several costumes, one of which is quite familiar! :D

I have a subscription to Entertainment Weekly. Last week featured three different covers of the Walking Dead actors. I'm not a fan so I thought someone might like this one for their collection if you're collecting. PM me if interested. It's this cover:

Well, I'd been trying to get to this one for months. Since it won an Emmy I figured I better watch. So I started today. Up to episode eight. I have to say -- and I didn't read the book (which will be remedied soon) -- it is terrifying. I mean, this is what the Dominionists want to do here. It's...

IT'S HAPPENING!!!!!!! David Tennant and Michael Sheen Star in GOOD OMENS as Angel and Demon Duo | Nerdist I'm so freaking excited!!! :jammin:

I know that several of us suffer with chronic pain. A friend on Facebook posted a link to this article. I identified with it very strongly and thought others might find it interesting: Why People Who Are Chronically Sick May Post on Facebook | The Mighty As for me, I am housebound. If someone...
