Time to step away.

Image
 Many who used to visit here regularly also would visit Kat's forum. Now she has opted to say goodbye. Why? Disqus isn't what it used to be, and traffic has crawled to almost a stop. https://countrykatnc.blogspot.com/2026/05/its-finally-friday-and-final-thread.html I have been taking the last couple of months to contemplate what I want to do with this forum. I think it's time for me to step away as well. Reasons are multiple. Mainly the loss of old friends, Susan and milo but others as well that, when I check their profiles, have been inactive for months, some for a year or two. Never heard why. Just stopped coming here or anywhere on Disqus. Lack of enthusiasm and participation has been evident as well. That includes my lack of enthusiasm. I am NOT blaming anyone. I can't advertise this forum so newbies are rare. Regulars have either gone away or drop in and leave a comment or two - often, it seems, out of habit. Back n forth conversations don't happen much any mor...

Jackie & Shadow update

Welp, ladies 'n germs, the little 'uns are getting big. One or two fish, parts of 'em actually, are always in the nest. Heads gone but the body with the protein is intact. It is so soothing to see nature doing its thing. Some things are still right in the world. https://youtu.be/B4-L2nfGcuE

Books of an era.

Image
 NOT much action on here lately and of course, SNOWY has been absent. I really hope we can have some convo over the following topic because it has been really bringing back memories for me. Here goes: Background: When in my teens and early adulthood I was really into books that spoke to my generation. Some are still popular, some were a fad. Luckily, my highschool was very progressive for the times (60s, 70s), and allowed us students to read just about any material provided two things: That the books we read had SOME social commentary, and we could write about what attracted us, or repelled us. Lately I was on the hunt for a book titled  A Separate Peace by John Knowles  (published 1959) Found a copy on a dusty bookshelf in a 2nd hand book store. Of course books with a social message didn't have to be written in the 60s or 70s, as long as they stimulated our minds and made us think about conditions outside of our personal experience. Of course everyone is pretty much fami...

Things You Got, And Things You Didn’t

Image
  In school, Bunny never got geometry, other than the area of a simple object.   “Prove this is a triangle.”  “It has three sides.”  “Prove it.”  Screw that.    Math fine, until you left the numbers behind, and went with letters.  Lost at sea. English, history, art, music, no problem for Bunny. What about you?  This can also be life now. J. P. Bunny
