Wm. Allen6 Comments

The Observer Effect

The observer effect is a principle in quantum mechanics, where the act of observing or measuring a quantum system alters its behavior and state.
If you have ever been associated with a time study, you know this is true on a more familiar level also.

Give it a try.

Please don’t be guilty of the above.

 Character Traits

Social Traits

You don’t have to hate people who have a different opinion. 

Learning Traits

Scams work because greed, loneliness, etc. overrides a person’s good judgment. If something is too good to be true, it probably isn’t true.

Wm. Allen8 Comments

Detroit Zoo 5K Race

What a great way to start a Sunday morning.

The last time I ran this race was in 2016, when I was 70.

I’m slower, but grateful to still be able to be  in this race.

To save you from doing the math, I’m 79.

Book of the Week

People who don’t read,

don’t know what they are missing.

I found this 8 episode Netflix series very entertaining and may even encourage to you observe things closer.

Music of the Week

I probably should call this Video of the Week, instead of Music of the Week, because I enjoyed this video so much.

My Wife Thinks You’re Are Dead

By Junior Brown

Junior Brown’s song “My Wife Thinks You’re Dead” won the Country Music Video of the Year award in 1996.  The song’s music video also featured the 6-foot-7-inch Gwendolyn Gillingham.

Joke of the Week

Physical Traits

And yet so many would rather take a pill or shot, 

instead of changing to a healthy lifestyle.

 Character Traits

Social Traits

Learning Traits

I have no idea how many people have told me that they want to do something, but they are waiting for the time to be right or some other excuse for not taking action.

I just know that what they want to accomplish never gets done.
