Ravensburger Puzzles
I grew up with Ravensburger and Charles Wysocki puzzles so I’m partial to them. Pomegranate has some nice ones too. The hardest one I did from Pomegranate was a Jackson Pollack painting. The hardest one I did from White Mountain were different pencils. I took pictures of the ones I finished in the last five…

Journal Entry Type #67: During and After the Full Belly
As many people in the U.S. and a handful of other countries that celebrate Thanksgivings earlier, as a collective whole probably stuffed themselves silly and gave thanks. If you live in the U.S., there’s the reminder of how the Native populations still suffer. I’ve been a type of person to not sugarcoat the mistakes and…

Journal Entry Type #66: Legos and Puzzles
Right now I’m taking my life slowly, like very slowly. I should be gung ho to rewrite and exercise with all my free time on my hands now, but I find myself doing other things like Legos (although most of the Harry Potter Legos were done someone else). I did put together the car in…

More You Know: British Prime Ministers
Since I’m watching The Crown, I decided to look up the Prime Ministers who served alongside the King or Queen of England. They were either of the Whig, Conservative, Tory, Liberal, Labour, or National Labour party. For obvious reasons due to the political climate or recent timing, Winston Churchill, Margaret Thatcher, Tony Blair, Theresa May…

Weekly Facts #47
Mechanical purpura is the medical term for a hickey which is basically a bruise. The longest running TV soap opera drama was Guiding Light, which was cancelled in 2009 after 57 years. Cornish Rex are one of the most intelligent cats. Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt weighs about 6,500,000 tons with each block being…

Poem: A Little Hazy
I often sit. I often wonder. I think about people who have died. Those I will never meet: Jimmy Hendrix, Frank Capra, Aristotle, Genghis Khan, and Spartacus. The list goes on: Queen Elizabeth I, Claude Monet, Edgar Allan Poe, Shakespeare, and Sylvia Plath. The ones with mythical tones: Big Foot, Unicorns, Loch Ness Monster, Centaurs,…

Poem: America
I will not be remembered by many, but Americans will remember that day. The day we came to that place we are now. In a hundred more years, adults will read about the missteps. How we became a nation of overeaters. How grilled cheese became comfort food. We knew being on the political fringes was…

Journal Entry Type #65: Not What I Wanted but Here I Am
It’s not surprising how I recently got more time on my hands. More than I would’ve liked, but I’m looking at this as an opportunity to catch up on things I’ve been putting off. I took the first two days once hearing the news to digest it and not get so wrapped up in the…

Documentary Recommendation: Sour Grapes (2016)
This documentary directed by Reuben Atlas and Jerry Rothwell is all the more intriguing in the fact that Rudy Kurniawan was released from prison on November 6, 2020. He is supposed to be sent back to Indonesia, but Sour Grapes focuses on his life in Arcadia, California as a counterfeiter of fine and rare wines…

Last Five Movies I’ve Watched in October 2020
Since I’m way past when I should have posted Halloween movies, I’m not going to say much about these movies except to watch them. I’ve seen Sleepy Hollow and The Vampire’s Assistant for a second time now, but the others were the first time watching them. They were good movies to take your mind off…

Weekly Facts #46

Istanbul in Turkey, Suez in Egypt, Magnitogorsk in Russia, Orenburg in Russia, and Atyrau in Kazakhstan are the cities located in on two continents.…

Book Recommendation: Think Like a Freak
Publication Date: 2015 Publisher: Penguin Books Page Number: 286 I have read all their other books in a short amount of time. Their books are that engaging. This one is too and although there is some repeat from past books, it is definitely worthy of your time. The authors, Levitt and Dubner, speak of their…
