Train in Vain
I burned most of this workweek in all-day training classes, learning a computer program I will virtually never use. But hey, it’s software licensing! It rivals accounting as the least exciting subject on the planet. Truth be told, I’m impressed with the three people in my cubicle farm that do…

Three Songs I Love to Sing Along With (BBBC 2017.26)
1. Thunder Road – Bruce Springsteen Ever since an old high school buddy turned me on to Bruce I have been a huge fan. Probably more than any other “Thunder Road” is the song I find myself singing alone with and singing it to myself without Bruce’s help. 2.…

Miller Park’s Boat Launch (BBBC.25)
My twenty-fifth images found in my phone this morning is the boat ramp at Miller Park on the Sacramento River. After years of drought Northern California has been inundated with rain and subsequent flooding in certain areas. I live near the Sacramento River and ride the levee to work most days. …
