It's been two weeks. I really thought I had it licked. Dreams of other women... some famous, some not. I rarely have a dream about a woman where sex is involved. It's generally either conversation or maybe a little kissing.

But last night... BAM! She's back again. The love of my life. Nothing provocative, just walking across the college campus where we spent so much time together.

To paraphrase the Godfather: Just when I thought I was out, she pulls me back in.

A few days ago I wrote about a near school shooting that was stopped because someone called 911 in time. There was a confrontation, shots exchanged and then the student with the gun killed himself. I stated that easy access to firearms and bad decision making leads to loss of life. One comment was left: "guns don't kill, people do."

I'm not going to get into the whole anti or pro gun debate. I've owned guns and was taught at an early age how to fire them, maintain them and most importantly respect them. That wasn't my point.

A potentially large event was cut short because someone cared enough to report what was going to happen. Yes, it's sad that someone lost their life, but weighed against possibly many lives, that's a number I can accept.

My point is that people need to stop treating firearms as a solution to personal problems, especially youngsters who are confused or feel slighted. If you need help, ask for help. Killing is not the answer.

This whole attitude of "I'm right and you're wrong" needs to be changed. We need to get along, from our politicians down to the (like me) common joe just trying to live their life.

I know it's cliche', but peace and love, not hate is the answer. If nothing else, just try to be a little nicer to those you contact every day. The ripple effects of kindness will astound you.

I'm going to the self serve car wash to get the road crap off of my car. I hope the water doesn't freeze on my car!

Temperate around 50 and raining.

Another attempted school shooting in Richmond, Indiana this morning.

A student called 911. State police were waiting at the school and after a brief exchange of gunfire, the student killed himself.

The frontal lobe of the brain is not fully developed in people until age 25.

Easy access to firearms plus bad decision making results in loss of life.

If everyone was naked all the time, there'd be no more wars... and no one would go outside in the winter.

In my humble opinion, the internet was created for two reasons: So that any blowhard can state their opinion, whether it's true or not and (of course) limitless porn.

Am I the only person who thinks the song 'Imagine' by John Lennon is plugging Communism? Lennon himself said that the lyrics were from the Communist Manifesto.

It's still a good song and proves that if you sugar coat something, it sells.

It started with Natalie Wood and continues with Kate Beckinsale and Evangaline Lily.

Yes, I have a type: Brunette, with dark eyes and a sprinkle of freckles across the nose area.

Girls I dated in high school, the love of my life and most of the ladies I've known since are all like that.

The one mistake I made was marrying a blonde. Shows you what happens when I go against my norm!
