alone in the wilderness

Posted on October 22, 2013 by Peter RorvigOctober 22, 2013

have you seen her parents?

Posted on October 21, 2013 by Peter RorvigOctober 21, 2013

Our children look kind of like this. They aren’t as dirty…and don’t usually have little braids and colorful pieces of string tied in their hair…but they look kind of like this. Blonde and Scandinavian…blue eyes. This little girl was found … Continue reading →

peaceful sunday

Posted on October 20, 2013 by Peter RorvigOctober 20, 2013

Woke up this morning and, because I didn’t really feel all that “up to speed”, decided not to run. I just wasn’t up to feeling the speed this morning. Better not to risk running with the wind this morning. So … Continue reading →

lacks the training

Posted on October 19, 2013 by Peter RorvigOctober 19, 2013

Savants are pretty fascinating. What’s not fascinating about someone with abilities beyond their level of training? When someone sits down at the piano and seems to pick it up quickly…or paints something beautiful after picking up a brush for the … Continue reading →

It matters to Nate

Posted on October 18, 2013 by Peter RorvigOctober 18, 2013

The utility of Halloween has kind of evaporated for me these days. People look at me funny when I go to the door and ask for candy.  I’m not as successful in my efforts as I used to be. I … Continue reading →

sure…when I was little

Posted on October 17, 2013 by Peter RorvigOctober 17, 2013

Jenny and I have a conversation that at this point has turned into sort of a joke. When we’re watching television, if some place that’s amazing comes on, some place that you wouldn’t think anyone could have possibly gone to, … Continue reading →

old men and entitlements

Posted on October 16, 2013 by Peter RorvigOctober 16, 2013

Jenny told me not to complain about entitlements so much. She said it was something old men did. Shoot. I talked yesterday about some folks who ripped off Wal-Mart with their limitless EBT cards (sounds like something Willie Wonka would … Continue reading →

I’m winning! I’m winning!

Posted on October 15, 2013 by Peter RorvigOctober 15, 2013

So you’ve got your cart piled high with groceries, you’ve cleared the shelves at Wal-Mart, you’re racing to the checkout line because…your EBT card has no limit! Word is out and the rush is on…bigger than Christmas or Black Friday … Continue reading →

Posted on October 14, 2013 by Peter RorvigOctober 14, 2013

  Here’s a video of an appearance by Poi Dog Pondering on the Letterman Show. Poi Dog Pondering is a band from Hawaii. What more can I say? Here’s a whole song about trying to figure it out… There must … Continue reading →

mower gang

Posted on October 13, 2013 by Peter RorvigOctober 13, 2013

I am still a little obsessed with Detroit. How could something that was so grand and important fall so far? It’s pretty crazy. I was going to write about EBT cards this morning after reading a short article on my … Continue reading →
