First Amendment – You can speak your mind, write what you want, worship as you please… and yes, even start a blog about how much you dislike pineapple on pizza. Second Amendment – You have the right to protect yourself… but it doesn’t mean you can carry a Super Soaker into a history exam. Third Amendment – No soldier will crash on your couch without permission… unless they’re bringing donuts and good gossip. Fourth Amendment – Your home, stuff, and phone are private… so if someone wants to go through your sock drawer, they’d better have a warrant and a really good reason. Fifth Ame...

He was honoring the Royal Air Force pilots who risked — and often gave — their lives to protect a nation. Fast forward to today, and those same words fit like a glove… only the heroes have been replaced. In our modern version, “the few” aren’t daring pilots in Spitfires. They’re billionaires, corporate titans, and central bankers, steering the global economy from plush offices and Davos conference halls. And the “so much owed”? That’s the cr...

From Idea to Automation - How ChatGPT Helped Me Make My Computer Work for Me

For me, one of the things I should do every day at a set time is wrap things up on the computer. It’s too easy to lose track of time, dive into “just one more thing,” and before you know it, it’s past bedtime. So I had a simple idea: “What if my computer could give me a friendly nudge at 5 PM to shut down, with an option to snooze if I’m not ready yet?” Sounds simple enough, right? But here’s the problem — I’m not a programmer, and I didn’t have hours to research how to make it happen - That’s when I asked ChatGPT. The Ask - I typed in my request exactly as it came to mind: Remind me daily at 5 PM to shut down Give me an option to sno...

Lately, it feels like we hear a whole lot more about the next big thing in tech – the super-duper new phone with even more cameras, the smartwatch that can practically make you breakfast. And while those things can be fun to think about, there's something way more important that doesn't always get the attention it deserves - our...

We’re nowhere close. We’ve got wars still raging. Leaders more focused on power than people. And a society trading truth for clicks and comfort. The world’s out of balance. And if we keep waiting for someone else to fix it— we’ll wait ourselves right into oblivion. But here’s the truth they hope you never realize - You're not powerless. Every time you speak up— Every time you question, connect, create, or care— You light a fire. Change does...

Fair Share or Free Ride - The Wealth Debate That Won’t Die in America

But somewhere along the way, that idea started to sound… selfish. Today, we’re watching politicians — mostly from the big-government, globalist crowd — repackage handouts as fairness, dependency as compassion, and tax hikes as patriotism. And if you raise your hand and say, “Hey, shouldn’t people earn their way?” — they’ll call you heartless, privileged, or worse, a capitalist. So now, in the name of “equity,” we tax the successful — not just the elite manipulators, but the actual builders, the doers, the small business owner who risked everything. An...

But did you know many of these everyday symbols have official names that sound like a spelling bee gone rogue? Let’s break down the wild, weird, and wonderful names behind the symbols we know—and mostly misunderstand. 1 - # – Octothorpe You know it as a hashtag or pound sign, but this little grid has a backstory worthy of a Netflix documentary. 🧐The real name - Octothorpe "Octo" = eight points. "Thorpe" = Nobody agrees - Some say it was added as a joke by Bell Labs employees in the 1960s. Legend has it they named it after an Olympic athlete, Jim Thorp...

And no, I’m not trying to sell you a feel-good bumper sticker or some recycled fortune cookie wisdom. I’m talking about a real, practical truth that we tend to overlook in a world that loves to measure wealth with bank accounts, square footage, and the number of zeroes on a paycheck. Let’s start with something simple. Have you ever given someone a genuine compliment? - Or your time?  - Or a hot meal? - Or maybe you donated a few bucks to a cause you believe in? How’d t...
