Did you know on 02-02-2020 there will be 8, yes, 8 different times of 02s? There will be 02:02:02, 02:02:20, 02:20:02, 02:20:20, and then in military time we also have 20:02:02, 20:02:20, 20:20:02 and 20:20:20, all on 02-02-2020. Or if you prefer the European dating, all on 2020-02-02. That’s a lot of 02s, and to…

My nephew loves puzzles. It could be a physical one he needs a solid surface and lots of room for or one on the tablet that he just swipes the pieces in place. Physical or electronic, he loves figuring out where each piece goes, (and he’s pretty good at it). Watching him work you never…

Have you ever been lost? You could have been lost in the woods or lost in an amusement park. Perhaps you got lost while driving in a new city or state. Maybe you got lost in the new shopping complex near your house or it could be as simple as being lost in thought. Whether…

The 50th anniversary of the first moon landing was a few days ago. Fifty years ago three guys rode an exploding silo over 220,00 miles and stepped out onto the void of the moon. That’s an incredible feat. To me that is awe inspiring. To others that “was fifty years ago.” To those others I…
