Today is my first post in a new category entitled “Things this old man thinks about” It is my intention to share occasional thoughts that cross my mind, mostly in a random fashion. I realize this carries some significant risk, but transparency is important, right?
I would like to believe my thoughts will be original, but that is too optimistic. Over the years, one source that has stimulated some ideas, but mostly validated thoughts I’ve had, is the cartoon strip Pickles. I am pretty sure the author has managed to hack our Alexas. I encourage everyone to subscribe to Pickles. You can subscribe HERE. In addition to the daily lives of Opal and Earl you will often get a glimpse of George and Ann.
A good example is today’s strip. Although I have never discerned that Earl or Opal hold any particular faith. Reading Pickles today, this thought crossed my my mind, “Earl may be an evangelical Christian.”
And I guess if you dwelled on it a bit more, heck, Earl can be anything we want him to be. I like pogo best

“It takes one to know one”?
”I hear you.”
My grandkids accuse me of being a clichés-master (monster?)…It’s a habit I need to break. But it sure is easier to stay in the same old rut!
