From early on in history there have been spectator sports. Although are not all sports meant to be viewed by spectators? Why else would you go and chase a ball around on a field? Watching sports is a personal choice. Some may see it as a waste of time (five hours times four days =Continue reading “Weird Wednesday: Spectator Sports”

Weird Wednesday: July 14 – Food for Thought
I like food. A lot. I exercise regularly and have a high metabolism. There is not much that I don’t like or won’t try. However: I like cooked broccoli, but I’m not a fan of it in raw form—even smothered in dip or hummus. Yet, I’ll chow down on raw cauliflower while begrudgingly eat itContinue reading “Weird Wednesday: July 14 – Food for Thought”

Weird Wednesday: June 16 – Change in the Pocket
Do you think it’s cool when your purchase total comes to…let’s say $14.00, or $34.00, or if you just bought two packs of gum and a soda and it’s $3.00?

Do you believe in UFOs? Well you should because they are real.“C’mon…really?” you ask.Well, there are things that people see in the sky that are not able to be identified, so, yes.“I thought you meant, like… aliens.”Did I say aliens?“No,” you say poutingly.What about UAPs?“You’re not getting me with that one.” What are UAPs? UnidentifiedContinue reading “Weird Wednesday: June 9 – Cartoons and Aliens”
Weird Wednesday: June 2 – The Survey returns and Cartoons
Every few months (or every 50 newsletter subscribers), I open up the Lines by Leon Survey, my way of learning about where my readers have arrived from and their reading habits, so that I can gauge the effectiveness of my web presence. If there were reviews of the survey, I suspect they would go somethingContinue reading “Weird Wednesday: June 2 – The Survey returns and Cartoons”
