Oh, I got this one! In the data-and-text only marketing, a flip phone in the late nineties and early two thousands were fantastic.

Be Here Now
Keanu Reeves, in a DVD Feature Menu from the Matrix Series, is caught on an unrehearsed clip between takes–as saying, “Be Here Now.” The Director and crew were trying to limit Keanu’s meandering on what he thought was needed–in a retake of a scene just completed on the set. We don’t really know what they …
The Butterfly Effect

Creation is a “See” before Reaction!
As a tried tired alky of 26 years, I finally “found the light” in Alcoholics Anonymous.

I learned the Seventh …

I’m more of a Lion than a Bear
I tend to wake up with lots of energy, and by early evening I am exhausted. This is considered a Lion. Lately–as the days get cooler and nightfall comes earlier. During the spring and summer, I act more like the bear. I do need eight hours of sleep or I overeat and become like a …
