If you don’t like it, don’t buy it?

Something curious seems to have happened in the market as of late. I first noticed it with the video game Battlefield 5 pre-release when the people trying to convince their perspective customers to buy their product actually said “If you don’t like it, don’t buy it.” This is a curious way to market a product, […]

Lessons From The Garden

I am continually amazed that a culture who values inspirational quotes so highly could have created something so vile and intolerant as a twitter mob. That social bubble seems to force us all to retreat into bubbles having been forced out of one, or sucked into another. These bubbles are like the Garden of Eden. Inside […]

Burn Out

I was going to write today about this article: But, as a half breed, it’s too depressing. It is still up on my computer for me to reference. My husband, working on some of my website problems started to read it and was baffled. “Why would you be upset your boyfriend finds you sexy?” he […]

Unforgiven on Twitter (Twitter is Evil pt 2)

When I was young, I made a big mistake: I married the first man who told me I was beautiful. It doesn’t sound much like a mistake, but if you think standing still and smiling while an old native American man beats a drum in front of your face is a mistake, then what I […]

Hashtags and Oscars (Twitter is Evil Part 1)

When the Oscar nominees for best film came out, and Black Panther was one, I knew something was horribly wrong in the world. I knew that Hollywood, and the critics that hang like leeches from the film industry’s success, hadn’t suddenly gained respect for superhero movies. I knew that those same people hadn’t decided to […]

A Case of the Mondays

It’s Monday, and I’ve forgotten I’m supposed to write every day and instead jumped in feet first on a purse sewing project, purchasing material and other notions to make said purse. It is noon. I have eaten breakfast. I have eaten lunch. Dinner is in the oven. But I suppose my priorities have been a […]

Underrated Christmas Films:Scrooge (1970)/Albert Finney

Scrooge, the 1970 film starring Albert Finney is a musical version of Charles Dickens “A Christmas Carol.” The link to Dickens you might have guessed by the name. If you and your kids sing show tunes–if you haven’t heard “Let it Go” enough, you’ll like this musical. There have been dozens of versions of this […]

Underrated Christmas Films: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe

On Sunday my son and daughter-in-law came to visit. At the time, I was watching “The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe,” the Disney version of the C.S. Lewis Novel. This film is a great example of exactly what C.S. Lewis intended to do with the story–spread the gospel without you even knowing you were […]

A Bard’s Privilege

A man can lie, cheat and steal, He can do everything wrong. He can wound every friend he has, As long as he does it with a song. A woman can sin and fall, For all the worst things can long, She can be as lustful as a man, As long as she does it […]

Cinderella’s post wedding dilemma

Dear Diary, Sometimes t’s really hard being married to Prince Charming. I think it was easier to live in the attic with the mice, the three blind ones… Is this what it’s like being rich? You’d think they’d enjoy it more, but they are so uptight about it that they don’t want ME to enjoy […]
