Life Lately – A February 2024 Month in Review
February is ending and this Leap Day creeped up on me far more quickly than I thought it would. I could have swore I had far more time to get this post and a few other things done. That is what happens when you are away from home for any length of time though.

Friday Conversations – February 9, 2024
So this week has been pretty chill since I haven’t been doing that much. Staying at my brother’s is always fun because I get to see old friends and pretty much unwind. I will say that it is freezing in his house because this thing has the dang air conditioning on. It took me two…

Unlocking the Past – Finding Obituaries for Genealogy Research
Although it has some weaknesses, the chapters are well-written and entertaining. The building blocks of ancient life, proteins, and fats that have long been trapped in fossils and earth and rock have now become widely accessible to science.
Down with the Flu
I know that y’all are probably wondering just where in the heck I have been. I have not stopped writing or anything. We have been down with the flu. It has been simply horrible! Especially considering we got vaccinated. However, we still managed to catch it and are currently passing it back and forth in…
