Predictions for the New Year

-

 Actually, I have none.  Except maybe just one.  As to when it will happen I have none idea.  My Angels gave me one date and that is a spring birthdate as to when Jesus was born the first time.  I celebrate that date by myself and make it my own religious day.  But when He will return I have no idea but I think it will be soon.

I don’t pay too  much attention to what others have to say about predictions.  Many seem to think and believe as I do.  I see many predictions, but I think of most of it as just click-bait.  I just don’t pay much attention to the predictions of others.  I have seen productions about Trump; the economy; and world affairs, but I’m not sure I care.

No one can predict the future as I take life a day at a time.  I try to live in the now and let tomorrow take care of itself.  If I f pay too much attention to the future I could very well be anxious about it.  Today is New Years Day and actually, I’m paying too much attention to college football to pay attention to what so-called psychics are saying.  

Nostradamus predicted a large asteroid would come close to earth and would trigger volcanic activity and earthquakes.  I am sure that if I delve deep in his predictions there might be other things I could be worrying about.  But the fact is I’m not worried.  I just don’t have much else to say about predictions other than they can make us anxious.  I prefer to relax with my pipe and just get through today.  I am smoking my Gettysburg pipe today with my Captain Black Original and let tomorrow take care of itself.  A Happy New Years to you all and Peace to each one of you.

It's About Balance

 I seem to struggle week after week as to how much football I am going to watch.  There for awhile I was watching all the analysis of the collegiate games and decided I was simply paying too much attention to football.  I cut way back last week and as the season begins to unfold I have to ask myself how much is too much?  I didn't watch one pro game last weekend and hadn't followed the analysis of collegiate games all week.   Then I found myself having a kind of withdrawal and decided I can watch whatever football I want to watch as long as it doesn't interfere with my Spirituality.  But at what point is too much too much?  My wife and I talked about this last week as I cut back on watching and we both decided that I like football and I shouldn't have to be thinking about how much or how little I watch.  I enjoy the games.  College more than the pro's.   I don't have to watch the analysis, but I like College Game Day and I like...

 I can never predict how any of my posts are going to be received but I do get a reaction from my wife quite often, but I'll post about my Spirituality thinking I've said enough and apart from a few other subjects my Spirituality posts do quite well.  I had yesterday's tobacco review done a few days ago and saved it for yesterday and again, it seems my tobacco reviews do quite well.  Then I wrote about my age and it seemed no one cared that much   My wife says that it's my titles for my subjects So, while I have so many subjects to choose from, today it is about how my tobacco choices influence my Spirituality or do they?  Not really.  It's just that I can't smoke my pipes without tobacco.  I could be smoking a lot of things.  Like the question asked when someone thinks you are crazy, " What have I been smoking?"  Well, at least you know.  It's never any "funny" stuff.  You could be asking what I've been drinking.  I have ...

Old Ads

-
 My wife liked my post about old things we remember.  And a lot of what I remembered was good.  But there was some bad things back then that are different today.  Back in the 50's and 60's and even into the 70's advertising in both magazines and TV were incredibly sexist.  I don't have the space in one post to list all the ads, but really they can be summed by saying that a lot of advertising was incredibly sexist. I 've mentioned my wife lit my pipe for me just a few times, but these days she can barely tolerate the aroma of my most flavorful Aromatic tobacco.  She liked everything I said in that post except my mentioning Old Professor pipe tobacco.  Ironically, I like Old Professor the most and she hates it the most.  So, when I mentioned it, she did too.  But back in the day a man smoking a pipe was his lifestyle.  Today, it's a hobby, and not just for men. But too back in the day, no woman could walk down the street without some perv...
