I Don’t Feel Like It

-

 I don’t feel like reading the news this morning.  I spent yesterday afternoon watching the college basketball conference tournaments.  I’m taking a break from the news.  It’s Sunday and I am listening to Sunday Morning Coffee by Chip Davis that I always listen to on Sunday mornings while smoking my pipe and drinking my morning coffee.  

Sunday mornings are pretty quiet in our neighborhood.  I don’t feel like thinking on Sundays.  In my younger years Sundays were church days.  These days I avoid crowds and the less I am around people the happier I am.  As they so often say, ignorance is bliss.  I prefer to be ignorant on weekends.  

The less I know the happier I am.  But I’ll catch up on the news starting tomorrow.  Weekends should be blissful in my thinking.  All bad news from the White House is dumped on Fridays so most don’t deal with it until Monday and by then other news takes precedent.  Weekends are blissful for a lot of people.  

But I might watch some news before the games begin this afternoon.  The selection committee for the NCAA Tournament meets at six and then the seeding and brackets are worked out.  March is the basketball month for college basketball.  Today is our 51st anniversary and I don’t think my wife and I have anything planned except to take it easy today.  Happy Anniversary to my wife today.  

I am drinking my Sunday morning coffee while smoking my Nording Number 2 pipe with some Cornell and Diehl Star of the East.  Thank you for your time and Peace and Love to each one of you.

Dave

About Good Vs. Evil

-
 My Angels told me Satan wanted to create and God wouldn’t let him, when I asked them if there were physical unions in heaven.  But here on earth creating is good.  God allows us to create all we want, within limits.  But in doing so we do the will of God knowing He is the Giver  of all life.  My Angels didn’t tell me this, but it is my thinking that we have to recognize God is the Giver of ALL life.  This is why every human life is sacred and why only God can take a human life. This is why God will overlook any sin but the taking of Human Life.  This is my theology from my Angels and why it is so important that we control both our hatred and our anger.  This is why there is the taking of human life.  Satan knows this too and why there is evil in this world.  Without righteousness humanity wouldn’t exist. This is why I believe God won’t let the world be destroyed.  There will always be wars and rumors of war, which is why livin...

Bach and a Pipe

-
 Bach was known to drink wine and smoke a pipe.  I did a little research in the area and found he was known to use tobacco in a pipe.  Tobacco came from the New World and before the New world was settled tobacco was traded back and forth.  He had access to tobacco as it took some wealth back then to afford the tobacco.  It was used mostly in the upper classes of Europe and it is said that his cousin supplied him the tobacco. As to whether men of great wealth generally used tobacco is a debate that countries today.  Shakespeare is not known to have smoked tobacco, but it seems he used pot and cocaine, which were found in clay pipes excavated from his property.  But many think it would be scandalous to suggest Shakespeare used tobacco.   When we get to the settling of the New World, pipe smoking was common among men.  The odds are great that great historical figures were pipe smokers, but most of this is conjecture but we simply don’t know. ...

Kind Of

-
 I’m kind of anti-social, but in my thinking it’s for good reason.  I’m pretty shy about my Angels.  They define who I am.  I seek to protect them as much as I can.  I’m willing to share my space, but only with a few.  Other than this I’m quiet about my Angels and it’s why I prefer solitude over many.  They say opposites attract and in my case this is very true.   I’m attracted to outgoing people.  In this regard my wife and I are opposites.  I can force myself to be an extrovert, but this is not my nature.  I prefer a quiet life of mostly solitude.  In this day of the Internet people are either outgoing or they will be alone.  I am happiest with a mind that doesn’t think too much.  But stress can give me overload.   I need diversions from life to keep my mind from overthinking.  This has been a problem for me for most of my life—even from a very young age.  Too many people and too much input causes my ...
