THE UNICORN DILEMMA
Noah must have been extremely talented in sexing animals. But no one is perfect.
And that is, perhaps, the reason why we have no unicorns today.
The commonly held theory as to why unicorns do not exist is that they were left behind with the beginning of the rain. It is possible they weren’t left behind but were, in fact, passengers on the ark.
It may be that they do not exist today for in selecting the couple to be saved, Noah made a mistake.

DIGITAL COUPONS
As far as the current increase in the price of groceries goes I am lucky that my days of supporting a family are over. However, the increase is quite noticeable to me for I still must eat,
The opinion I expressed here will probably cause disagreements because food prices are on a constant rise, due in part to corporate greed. But also, hopefully, will cause some consideration of these thoughts.
Digital coupons are a relatively new phenomenon which have appeared at the same time with the decline in traditional coupons.
Here are the reasons why I will not use digital coupons.
I feel that the people who would benefit most from the savings provided with digital coupons don’t have access or knowledge of them. At the same time the savings associated with traditional coupons are gone. Also use these coupons and I can almost guarantee that will result in receiving endless emails from the associated grocery store and associated manufacturers of the products accepting the digital coupons.
A NEW SERIES: WALT’S OPINIONS
WALT’S OPINIONS
This post will initiate a new series of posts, Walt’s Opinions.
To put matters in perspective I will quote a saying of a fellow officer I knew in the air force. Here is the PG version: Opinions are like anuses. Everyone has one.
Here you will find my opinions. I doubt that many of you will agree with most of what I have to say, but some knowledge may be offered and, hopefully, resulting in some consideration of your opinion on the subject being considered.
YOU KNOW YOU’RE GETTING OLD WHEN:
You remember presses involved in self-publishing were once called vanity presses.
YOU KNOW YOU’RE GETTING OLD WHEN:
You remember when psychics were once called fortune tellers.
UKRAINE
INSPIRED
With the passing of the bill to provide aid to Ukraine I am inspired to know:
That congress CAN accomplish something.
Some members have finally developed spines.
Putin is shitting his pants.
A WRITER’S DILEMMA REVISITED
Less than eight hours after posting yesterday’s piece where I mention that I thought a writer did not get enough feedback from an editor when your work is accepted for publication I was notified by and editor that short story of mine was accepted for publication, and why it was accepted.
So much for that opinion. I felt I needed to relate to you, at least in this instance, I was wrong.
This story has an interesting history.
I began writing it a little over twenty years ago. It’s gone through many rewrites and many rejections. I finally realized that the premise worked but the approach was all wrong and unbelievable. I finally got the writing right.
I’ll let you know where and when it will be published.
YOU KNOW YOU’RE GETTING OLD WHEN . . .
You read obituaries of those who died at or around you age to see what they did with their time.
YOU KNOW YOU’RE CREATING MEMORIES WHEN . . .
You find this Christmas as being a special Christmas.
YOU KNOW YOU’RE GETTING OLD WHEN . . .
When you can remember, for Christmas presents, buying cartons of cigarettes displaying a picture of Santa.
