    So (I think it was 87% of bloggers start their blog entries with the word “so” although that statistic may be outdated any more), This is day 2 of a streak! If anyone is interested, I have joined another retail workforce. I left the grinning checkmark, which doesn’t treat its…

    Herb’s Blog Herbdate 21735-301(?): I hope I don’t have a stinky diaper, but I do want to start a streak and get on a roll. No, not the old 70’s kind of streaking, but I want to start a streak. I read the blog of a guy named Seth Godin…

    I’ve made this commitment to writing something here and already I can see myself falling into the same trap as I did before.  I can’t think of something to write about and think, “Well, I guess it can wait a day or two.  I’d rather have something interesting or important…

    There’s something about sitting by a campfire (when they are allowed and our state isn’t on fire) and talking late into the night with a hot cup of Jo. Um, talking with someone around the campfire while holding a cup of Jo. Although I have had some pretty good talks…
