On the socioeconomics of being humane
The socioeconomics of humanness lies in the beauty of balancing the aspects of togetherness and isolation. In a world where life coincides with the duality of forces, oscillating between the forces of light and dark, beauty and hate, love and hatred, birth and death, humans are the most endearing and detrimental beings ever to exist. The prowess of intellect and communication, with the stellar mind that created the strides of evolution and lapses of civilization, is undeniably the most striking aspect of what makes humans the most resilient beings of them all.

A Veteran's Day Limerick
“The Veterans Day National Ceremony is held each year on November 11th at Arlington National Cemetery. The ceremony commences with a wreath laying at the Tomb of the Unknowns and continues inside the Memorial Amphitheater with a parade of colors by Veterans’ organizations and remarks from dignitaries. The ceremony is intended to honor and thank all who served in the United States Armed Forces.” – VA.gov

An Alternative Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is around the corner. It is a food and family extravaganza. The grocery stores are locked and loaded. There are many places that offer prepared Thanksgiving dinners. And, for those who want to forego cooking and cleaning and catering to relatives that they have to pretend to like, there are many restaurants that will be serving Thanksgiving dinners. I have exercised this option successfully many times and had some exceptional Thanksgiving dinners. Had my fill, paid the bill and then went home to watch football and chill.

The Deviled Egg Can Be Devilish
Today is National Deviled Eggs Day and deviled eggs are being mentioned as great appetizers for the Thanksgiving feast. They are definitely tasty and colorful and when piped, food art…but starting off a family and friends celebration with sulfur bombs??? Do you really want the answer to the question “How was your Thanksgiving?” to be “It was a gas – literally and figuratively!” Of course, once the tryptophan from the turkey and the overeating kicks in and the snoring starts, who is going to notice.
