Writing has become more important as I live with cancer. It's a therapy, it's an escape, and it's a way to do something lasting that hopefully leaves an impression.

TO MASK UP, OR NOT TO MASK UP. THAT IS THE QUESTION.
After the past week of numbers and metrics being considered by the experts, the question now becomes do we mask up, or are we truly safe in the areas mentioned by the CDC. We've all waited for more than a year now for the world to start to head in the opposite direction, to start to return to some resemblance of normal. While it may be time to start looking for a bright cloud on the horizon, there are still many questions to be answered about the future and Covid-19.

The Most Intriguing People In The World And Why Two Million People Might All Know One.
The world takes all kinds of people and I think I've met most of the types that can be categorized into some genre or category of person. There are the blue-collar guys, the white-collar professionals, the soccer moms, the politicians, the civil service workers, the students, and the academics. I've even met a few that I simply couldn't categorize, nor did I imagine a fitting category for them. They, for lack of a better term, are the ones I call the monsters. There is, without an adequate psychological standard for these beings, a type that is simply monstrosities, or perhaps abominations is a better word. Of course, that was my professional choice for many years, being exposed to these monstrosities.

On A Planet With So Much Water Why Would We Ruin Something We Depend On To Live? Three Simple Ways To Protect Our Environment And Our Futures.
That'll end up in the sea, all it takes is one storm, one high tide coming in, and it's gone. Plastics can take from as little as 20 years and to as long as 500 years to decompose, depending on the materials and structure. Sunlight exposure helps to degrade or break down plastics. Like our skin, plastics absorb ultraviolet radiation from sunlight which breaks down molecules. Photodegradation is the name of the process and it's why landfills often expose plastic waste to the sun to quicken the process.

Your Vocal and Vocal+ Reads Are Where The Money's At. How To Drive Up Your Reads By As Much As 400% In 30 Days.
I first heard about Vocal+ in November of 2020. Looking back in time, I wish I knew then what I know now. It was starting to get cold outside, bass fishing season was over in my region, and I was looking for something to focus on in my spare time. Which, during the pandemic, I had far more of than I cared for. So, stumbling across a platform that I could use to attempt to write from home, become a better writer, get into content creating, and let's face it, maybe make some extra money, sounded all too exciting.

Wanda Maximoff “The Scarlett Witch”, Could Beat Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, and Captain America For The Title Of, “The Strongest Avenger”!
The Marvel Cinematic Universe has brought comic fans, movie fans, action fans, and people looking for entertainment over a decade of incredible action, incredible movies, and incredible stars. We will forever remember the moments that awed us, brought our hands together in applause, caused us to break out laughing, and even those that brought a few tears in a crowded room. From Iron Man to the Endgame, millions and millions of fans followed the movies with anxious anticipation for the next one starting to grow before the end credit scenes finished playing. Marvel, as a matter of fact, took the end scenes and made them into something that holds people in their seats, incapable of moving before they know what that scene is about, and then to the end of the credits for that final scene. The MCU changed the world of movies and left an indelible mark on culture.

Julie "Tawny" Kitaen
Yesterday I saw the news and was taken back by it. How in the world could Tawny Kitaen be gone? For guys that were teenagers in the eighties, Tawny Kitaen was the dream girl in music videos. The firey, redhead, in lingerie or tight clothes. She was a mystery as a model in music videos for the band Whitesnake then went on to be an actress, cover model, and sex symbol. I think, looking back, there were posters of her on my wall that made my high school girlfriend jealous. She was the larger-than-life embodiment of the rock and roll model that every metalhead and fan loved, even though we didn't know her.

Wakanda Forever
Chadwick Boseman, the Black Panther, King T'Challa of Wakanda in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, may be the hardest of losses to the Marvel Universe as well as to fans of the movies. There's no question that Black Panther broke records. There's no question that Black Panther was a legacy-defining hit that won't soon if ever, be forgotten. It was no surprise that Marvel put the plans for Black Panther 2 on hold after the shocking death of its' lead actor, Chadwick Boseman. Now that it's in development again, we are just now starting to learn details of the anxiously awaited Black Panther 2.

Tom Clancy's Without Remorse
With movie theaters still struggling to open and a lack of new offerings for them to play, we've all turned more and more to streaming services for our entertainment. One of the more recent offerings comes to us from the folks at Amazon and stars Michael B Jordan in the origin story of Navy Seal, Senior Chief, John Kelly. Jordan's character takes a rightful place in the Tom Clancy, Jack Ryan universe. That said, I'll try to keep the spoilers to a minimum.

It's A Teenage Wasteland
It's all the same, only the names will change, every day, it seems we're wasting away. What lines from a song better describe the angst of a teenager in the eighties and nineties. Boy, Bon Jovi was great at capturing the mentality of young men in the times. He was also capturing the hearts, minds, and if he'd let them souls of teen girls everywhere. Which, was something that young boys wanted to do.
