    Welcome to HQ Coffee Shop

    In my intro here, the first thing I asked for was the directions to the coffee pot which sadly, came with no answers because until now, there has been no coffee pot, shop nor room . All that said, your shop is a welcome and necessary commodity for this community’s survival so thank you and...

    Drug cartels are now considered terrorists .

    It is my opinion mind you and I really do not know a lot about the new President of Mexico but in the past, it is the Mexican government that is fully responsible for the cartels’ ability to do business. So much so that just 6 years ago, the Mexican military attempted to “arrest” Ovidio Guzman...

    The connection between wildfires and SMART Cities

    Hey Don ! Glad to see ya here ! I think I related this once before but when I was in Ekuk, there was a yellowish hue that sorta hung in the sky for a few days and one of the native boat captains said it was a peat fire. From what he explained, they occur underground and can burn for quite...

    Howdy from Houston

    I’m glad to see ya here Beth and yes, Yvonne really did go out on the porch yelling at me for what seemed like an emergency. I mean, I was all the way out to the driveway and had to walk (quickly) back to the house to get a repeat of what she was yelling about. “GUESS WHO IS ON THE FORUM...

    Daylight Savings Time starts next weekend !

    When I worked in the Aleutians (Ekuk), since I worked 12-16 hours a day, I did enjoy the nearly 24 hour sunlight and the ability to go out before and after work to hunt for amber along Bristol Bay. As far as the mosquitos go, yeah, they are huge and when they swarm, they have been known to...

    Daylight Savings Time starts next weekend !

    So….the time changed. Quietly. Whilst I was sleeping. Like a thief in the night who instead of looking for a material bounty, took an hour of my life. Of course, one might endeavor to rationalize that in 6 or so months, time will change again and the hour I lost will miraculously reappear...

    Last thing you drank

    Coffee and may I add, before that it was…..coffee. Of course, I do have brief interludes when I have a protein shake or my personal witches brew during workouts but be assured that before and after those I make more coffee; black. strong and black. black and strong. Now, perchance I should...

    Daylight Savings Time starts next weekend !

    We have an ancient/ partially programmable electric clock in the bedroom. Why we keep it is something I really never thought a lot about until now but maybe, since it is old and we are old, there’s some type of subconscious reluctance when it comes to causing its demise quicker than its...

    Should the United States stay in NATO ?

    You hit the nail on the head with the reference to Article 5. If any of the 32 members of NATO get militarily involved in the Ukraine / Russia war, they can indeed invoke Article 5 which would, because of the nature of the treaty, bring all the other countries in NATO into the war. Ergo, 32...

    Howdy and a tip-o-the-hat !

    In my way of thinking, no discussion, whether spirited or benal, can be properly accomplished without coffee in hand. The future of whole countries have been decided over a cup of coffee. I mean, if King George had just sent coffee instead of tea, that Boston incident would probably never...

    What have you done today?

    After hitting the weights yesterday for a Great workout at the gym, other than taking a trip to Lowe’s, today has been pretty much a rest day. Weather permitting, I’ll hit it hard on Monday again and maybe come back here in the afternoon with a report on my workout.

    How often do you have your haircut?

    I haven’t “had” my hair cut in years and years and just to think about it, in the last 10, I have had it cut once. Starting at a very early age, I was taught that if I didn’t know how to do something, I’d have to pay someone else to do it so there really isn’t much I haven’t learned to do on...

    Drug cartels are now considered terrorists .

    To be sure, Nixon’s “War on Drugs” has been reinstated by Trump’s border initiatives to stop the flow of illegals coming across the borders but there has to be more to stop the apathetic way the American people view drug abuse. Until the Reagan administration, citizens hooked on drugs and /...

    Why Did You Choose Your Avatar?

    I have used several avatars over the years and they’re generally a reflection of who I am. A couple of examples might be: I’m a patriot so sometimes I will use a bald eagle, a symbol of my country. Sometimes a lighthouse which is a symbol that is indicative of my faith. This time, I am...

    Last played game?

    One of the more popular, albeit less advertised video game is GOP 3 which at some point I will play just about every day. It’s a multi-player, multi-faceted site that invites poker, slot and black jack enthusiasts from all over the world to play. As always, there are in game purchases...

    Howdy and a tip-o-the-hat !

    Just call me Bobby and first things first, point me in the direction of the coffee pot. I was born in Iowa, hale from New Orleans and live in N. Alabama directly next to Redstone Arsenal where I am certain that if a nuke war ever broke out we’d be one of the first to go. Boom, gone, end of...
