    ronaldsieber wrote a new post, Dinosaur Flatulence, on the site Ronald Sieber 1 year ago

    ThumbnailTopics like the above in esteemed scientific journals fascinate me. Mind you, I didn’t make this topic up.

    Do they show that scientists also have a sense of humor? Or, are they really just weird?

    In this […]

    ThumbnailI was sharing a bottle of wine with two friends recently. They were girl-talking about men.

    When a guy is included in such a discussion, it shows a level of trust and respect not often granted by the fairer […]

    Robert:
    Thanks for your comments on the “Honoring Our Past” post. It seems I run into so many people who say “I remember when we had this Dodge, see, and…” or “My girlfriend and I used to drive in this same year […]

    ronaldsieber wrote a new post, Serendipity, on the site Ronald Sieber 1 year ago

    ThumbnailI study words, but even I found this one a bit strange. Serendipity’s an odd, mysterious

    word. And it’s also more.

    Don’t get me wrong; we all need some mystery in our lives. A little strange every now […]

    High unemployment abounded. Savings accounts were depleted. Economic stagnation dominated.

    2011 dashed hopes for many. And according to the […]

    ThumbnailEveryone loves a parade.  What’s not to like about them?

    Parades are street parties, cavalcades, jugglers and clowns, unity displays, all rolled together into one. Every costumed girl on a float is a […]

    ThumbnailMany of us in the old car hobby think of ourselves as owners and enthusiasts, but we are really much more than that.

    We are custodians of national history. We are fenderside philosophers. We are culture […]

    Rbt:

    I like “Forgetting” better because of what it implies in the line. That might be like sliding into second on a clear overthrow, but then again, it flows better as well.

    Thanks, Robert, for your observations. I’m traveling a lot and just writing what comes to me. It’s so nice to just free-associate and not write from an assignment. I’m playing hookey from the monetizer demons.

    ThumbnailMost people stereotype me as “fearless.”

    They’ll say things like:

    Oh, I really admire that you can just pack up and go anywhere at a moment’s notice!

    Or:

    Are you really taking salsa lessons? What a […]

    Have you ever given something away with no obligation?
