81. Welcome to Bizarre-o World
November 09, 2013
A major gas and oil tool company with whom I was once employed purchased a privately-owned, technology-based company headquartered in Provo, Utah with a second facility in France. The acquisition was to attain the rights for an ingenious, breakthrough process, which would provide a major advantage, ...

82. So This Is How It Ends
November 07, 2013
My brother, Jim, and I played a bit of phone tag last weekend. I finally caught up with him as we simultaneously and separately vegged-out watching televised football, Jim in sunny Palm Springs and me in the blustery Midwest. My two younger brothers have morphed into a perceived schtick of ...

83. Off the Wall
October 28, 2013
I began playing one-wall and three-wall handball at a Southern California apartment complex because a friend said it was good exercise and fun. He was right. Of course from the time we are young boys, anything having to do with chasing a ball is fun. For instance, water polo is a lot more enjoyable ...

84. Dead and Buried or Going, Going...
October 24, 2013
As I have advanced through the decades living the fabled American Dream, like you I’ve noticed quite a few changes with respect to a number of life’s aspects including children’s activities, sports, home life, social life, and technology to name a few. Some changes have improved our lot, some have w...

85. The UN-Affordable Care Act
October 22, 2013
When I listened to President Obama’s speech defending the problems of Obamacare, and pledging all would be well (Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain), I had but one thought: Oh, my God he sounds like an Enron executive. I thought maybe the media would pick up on it and call the man to ta...

86. Hand Puppets Are Evil
October 16, 2013
See here’s my take: beware of hand puppets because they lie and get you into trouble. I know what you’re thinking: Myers has lost it; he’s finally gone over the wall. It’s time to haul him away to the funny farm, the loony bin, the crazy house. (There coming to take me away hee-hee, ha-ha, ho-ho…) H...

87. Hope and Change
October 10, 2013
There was a young, charismatic candidate contending for leadership of a North American country who campaigned under the slogan of Hope-and-Change. At the time, the country was (mildly) flourishing, but the establishment was corrupt due to lack of proper checks-and-balances. As the old saying goes, t...

88. Change It Or Fix It
October 01, 2013
I’m presenting two scenarios that may seem unconnected. They’re not. Each is a metaphor for the other. During a previous career I observed firsthand the manufacturing sector for a number of Fortune 500 companies, I was constantly entertained by blatant mendacity and hypocrisy, the culture it...

89. A Strange Class Reunion
September 21, 2013
In my reverie… Once before I wrote about the kind of dreams I have. They come nightly—and I mean every night, and are, in the main, rather pleasant. Usually they make absolutely no sense and are totally illogical, although when I’m in the dream everything seems completely logical and makes ...

90. Commercials, Jingles, and Tag Lines
September 17, 2013
I remember when living on the west coast a few decades ago an upstart company with a new concept called cable-TV tried to break into the television market. It got zero traction. Zip. Nada. The over-the-air TV stations and the local politicians put the kibosh on the attempt. Five years or so later, a...
