The Christmas Truce

No Comments
Well, another week is here and I have been staring at a blank notepad for too long this week. Funny enough, normally I would never have a hard time finding a conversation to dive into, but with Christmas looking like a campfire on the horizon during what has been a rather dark night, I cannot…

The Actor

“The trust of the innocent is the liar’s most useful tool.” – Stephen King   This week I want to shift gears. Having been sick for the past week or so, I have enough pressure in my sinus to make Queen and David Bowie jealous. I do apologize for the lack of content last week,…

Truth and Activism

As the stories pile in this month, it can be enough for any overwhelmed individual to unplug. Everywhere we look appears to be a bit more tragic than what could be defined as normal. Every dark tale seems to have an even darker storyteller focusing on key details, or completely omitting other more important ones.…

Giving Thanks

Well, folks, the Holidays are upon us. I know many who have been so tense and stressed out that they didn’t think we would make it this far. And from what I can tell, it’s finally allowing for some much-needed introspection on exactly what matters to most of society. Peace of mind, for both you…

The Viking and The Fool

“If one does not understand a person, one tends to regard him as a fool.” -Carl Jung     Part of the fun of doing this project is starting with a blank notepad and throwing ideas down until I have something I can elaborate on. With the nation bracing for potential chaos, It could be…

A kid against the world

Most people who know me, understand that it is very difficult to be in a room with me that will not turn into some sort of deep conversation. I have never been the kind of person who lightly comments on the weather or any frivolous small talk. This week I am even more intrigued than…

Everyone Quits

Every week I have to constrain myself because I have too many thoughts to even write. It is no mystery that we are living in a strange reality that nobody ever thought possible. I’m sure you do not need me to tell you, it’s all just really exhausting. That is the point I want to…

Rogan Vs Facts

Today I wanted to sit down and talk about how incredible the writing is in Squid Game, but I have not managed to finish it yet.  I want to make sure I digest the production in its entirety before I really go in to detail about how scary accurate Squid Game is with our current…

A Jury Of Our Fears

https://1045samfm.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Week-5-Jury-Of-Our-Fears.mp3     Every week when I sit down to write these out, I am generally filled with a ton of ideas and have to compartmentalize them all into what is useful to my post, and what is not. This task becomes increasingly difficult as the more you notice, the harder it becomes to maintain…

More Than Point And Click

“He who despairs of the human condition is a coward, but he who has hope for it is a fool.” – Albert Camus   Last week, I wrote about something that I think about often. If someone was given the reigns to lead a population, how would they, or even myself behave? Since I was…

Something Seems Upside Down in The Land Down Under

  “If history repeats itself, and the unexpected always happens, how incapable must man be of learning from experience.” – George Bernard Shaw   Every day seems to bring us new “Breaking News.” When you live in such a chaotic time it can be really easy for us to want to tune it all out.…

That’s Life

When I first decided I wanted to start this blog, I had a rather decent idea of the topics I wanted to write about. With the craziness of our era there is an over-abundance of absurd happenings for anyone to ponder over. However, Sunday morning as I began to collect my thoughts on a certain…

Everybody is The Hero

Well, we have arrived. We are now living in the most confusing timeline any of us could have imagined. Not only are we dealing with the advent of rapidly evolving technologies such as social media, and the grip it has on our collective conscious. We are also dealing with one of the biggest moral questions…
