This morning when I looked through my car windshield over the steering wheel I was happy to see the trees outside the Veterans For Peace office in their full-color beauty. Do you see the Veterans For Peace emblem in the background? Across...
I drove off to the VFP office in my car and what did I see? There was a caterpillar on my windshield. I did not stop to take it off. I guess I should have. Fortunately, my office is close to home...
Nothing special here. Just a picture taken from my car of plants on the road median in downtown Saint Louis. Notice the Orkin pest control box on the left. I guess we must have some good size rats running around at night...

Donald Sterling is simply a high profile example of the racism that continues to be a constant undercurrent in our country. Many people claim it is isolated, but it is everywhere. One really does not have to search for it. For years,...
Well, I was finally able to go back to Newark and move my motorcycle. It has been partially covered through this crazy winter. It has some rust I really need to attend to soon. Sitting and listening to people ride by on...
