Cast Away Dreams: ...Everything Imaginable
http://castawaydreams.blogspot.com/2009/03/everything-imaginable.html
There's been a change in plans.". Wednesday, March 11, 2009. French girls, they want partying, Italian girls want cars. American girls want everything in the world you can possibly imagine.". Some Girls: Mick Jagger. Some of us wanted to act like the government. We wanted it all on installments and we had no intention of paying for it before we died. Like Scarlett O'hare we wanted to "think about that tomorrow". So it's tomorrow. Car salesmen, and certainly loan officers don't want us thinking this way&#...

Cast Away Dreams: Sweeping Up
http://castawaydreams.blogspot.com/2009/04/sweeping-up.html
There's been a change in plans.". Sunday, April 5, 2009. Today is a lazy conference Sunday and so I was flipping through the book again. I started reading the preface. I realize this is the first part of a book you're supposed to read, but I'm impatient- sometimes I even start at the back of a magazine and flip forward to the beginning. Freud only knows why I do. He says, "Instead of a warm 'yes, son,' I felt the incredulous stare of a loving Father." He reports that he drove to his studio and tossed...

Cast Away Dreams: January 2008
http://castawaydreams.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
There's been a change in plans.". Saturday, January 19, 2008. I Saw A Pillar of Light. I was coming home from work (and my daily constitutional in the mountains) yesterday afternoon and I saw this on the 31st street expressway. I though it was God but it was a "solar pillar". I know this because I sent a couple of pics to the KSL. Well, to each man his own fetish. It would be nice if the pillar had been in the East, and it. Been God. We could dispense with the current cycle. Sunday, January 6, 2008.

Cast Away Dreams: September 2008
http://castawaydreams.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
There's been a change in plans.". Saturday, September 27, 2008. The other day I was flipping through a magazine and I glanced at one of those "editorial ads" where someone pays to have their product plugged as if it were a news piece covered by the magazine staff. One of the "new products" was an organic cotton towel for upwards of $75 as I recall. (OK it was actually a bath. Not just a towel but.$75. I asked myself, "Who pays 75 bucks for a towel- organic. Can we get by with a smaller pile of bath linen?

...To [Get] Myself Physically Fit,...
http://getmyselffit.blogspot.com/2008/10/its-been-long-time-since-i-visited-this.html
To [Get] Myself Physically Fit,. Thursday, October 30, 2008. Now the routine is: break for an hour sometime during the day and hike up a nearby canyon then get back to work. I used to drive the other direction from the office and head to the gym. There I would do a little weight training then hop on the treadmill for an hour. My ipod and an audiobook from audible.com was the only thing that got me through what otherwise would have been tooooo booooaring. I like the view going east from the office better.

Cast Away Dreams: November 2008
http://castawaydreams.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
There's been a change in plans.". Saturday, November 22, 2008. The Wonder and the Fear. At about 2:00 on Saturday morning I became a grandfather. All my life I've been amazed when milestones appeared: A kid in school. All the kids in school. A kid in each level of public school. A high school graduate. A college student. A married child. On and on. This one was a biggie. How is this possible? To actually express it perfectly, no one who wasn't a grandfather would understand anyway. God sends His children.

...To [Get] Myself Physically Fit,...: Nearly Summer on the Shoreline Trail
http://getmyselffit.blogspot.com/2008/04/nearly-summer-on-shoreline-trail.html
To [Get] Myself Physically Fit,. Tuesday, April 22, 2008. Nearly Summer on the Shoreline Trail. Anyway, this snow is endangered. I can actually kick up dust while I'm walking. All of the trees except the oak and a couple of walnut near the trail head are beginning to leaf out. Even the Mule's Ears are putting out leaves and flower buds. I actually saw a few Allium blooming today. The only thing I need to see to prove that spring is actually here is a rattlesnake. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). ATypi...

Cast Away Dreams: ATypical Day at the Hospital
http://castawaydreams.blogspot.com/2009/04/atypical-day-at-hospital.html
There's been a change in plans.". Thursday, April 30, 2009. ATypical Day at the Hospital. It went well, and all-in-all she's still doing well; hoping to come home tomorrow. Will tell you seem unsurvivable and I think I can say I've had enough time to consider my blessings. Paradise is- a place a little less jaw-dropping exotic but with an incredibly powerful economic engine that makes miracles commonplace. A place where even the "poor" can come when they are in desperate straits and get the same trea...
