Indeed, Hej fra Humlebæk! I am back two years later almost to the day to visit Anton, Carla, Anne Marie, and Hans Christian. My first visit for Anton’s graduation from gymnasium was wonderful, and now, returning again to their beautiful little village on the coast is as tremendous as the first time, but having aContinue reading “Hej fra Humlebæk”

Prayers and Promises
Hello on another rainy evening in Pennsylvania, While I asserted we needed some substantial rain back in April, when showers are expected, it is now mid-June and the showers, drizzle, downpours, and incessant forms of precipitation continue. There have been flood warnings more than once, and yet, on a positive note, things are as greenContinue reading “Prayers and Promises”
Consistently Inconsistent
Hello on an atypical Saturday afternoon, When I first started this post we were about 1/2 the way through April, and rapidly approaching the Easter weekend. I had attended the PMEA State Choral concert in the Poconos. The picture is from our drive. It appeared and seemed anything but Spring, as the photo above illustrates.Continue reading “Consistently Inconsistent”
Holy Water and the Burning Man
Hello on a beautiful, but seemingly summer day here in Bloomsburg, I spoke with some of my Wisconsin contacts today, and they were looking at some different possibilities than I as I am currently sitting out enjoying the cooling weather as the sun sets. We did not have much of a Spring, and it appearsContinue reading “Holy Water and the Burning Man”
Tragic Brilliance
Hello from my morning office hours, When I first arrived at the University of Wisconsin-Stout, I was excited by the opportunity to take what I learned about technology and writing, to use what I had experienced as a technical writer and trainer for both Chrysler Corporation and Gateway Computers, and to apply both theory andContinue reading “Tragic Brilliance”
Unexpected Gift – Unexpected Time
Hello from my office in Bakeless, As I said to a couple of people today, it has been a long week today, or perhaps a long month this week (and it is only Tuesday).

How Television Creates our Reality: From Little House to Glee
Hello, It has been close to a month since I posted. I have written more than once, but did not feel the post was doing justice to the topics or concerns at hand, I did not post. Sometimes, things need to percolate a bit more. Sometimes, what I believed to be important in the momentContinue reading “How Television Creates our Reality: From Little House to Glee”
I was Fourteen . . . Tin soldiers and . . .
Hello from my kitchen on a Sunday morning, I went to bed early last night and slept pretty well. Up once around 2:00, but this time I was able to go back to sleep somewhat quickly and slept until about 6:30. As usual, I did some reading and some praying. After some morning preparations forContinue reading “I was Fourteen . . . Tin soldiers and . . .”
Walking in the Other’s Shoes
Good early evening from my office, It is always interesting to see how people respond to the plight of their fellow humans. How is it we can be both the most caring, empathetic of all creation, and simultaneously the most cruel and ruthless? How is it we can teach our children how to respect, actContinue reading “Walking in the Other’s Shoes”
