Born a 10th generation Oregonian, (5 generations on each side) I have an enthusiasm for learning and teaching new things. After a ten year mini career in the dental field I moved on to research and embraced the social web. Though the internet is far too large for any one person to claim to be an expert, I can hold my own with the latest trends.
I enjoy researching and writing blogs. As the "Internet Program Director" for myMotherLode.com since 2008, I update the website and have a wide variety of interests. There is always something entertaining, educational or inspirational to share.
English novelist T.H. White once noted that “The most difficult thing in the world is to know how to do a thing and to watch somebody else doing it wrong, without comment.”
It was author Jonathan Swift’s opinion that “A man should never be ashamed to own he has been in the wrong… in other words, that he is wiser today than he was yesterday.”
After killing the Keystone pipeline forcing reliance on rail transport that is expensive and far riskier; the Biden administration now wants more oil from Canada and has gone hat in hand to the Saudis, who won’t even take his phone calls. And, speaking of doing business with autocracies, also the Venezuelans. First The Administration does all it can to hinder or outright stop new energy production here, taking us from energy independence to dependence, then it greenlit Europe’s Nordstream 2 pipeline making it dependent upon Russia, obviously not the most reliable partner. The feckless so-called energy policies of the White House and the Green New Dealers must be reversed, and some degree of sanity instilled.
As French writer Andre’ Gide once noted: “The drawback to a journey that has been too well-planned is that it does not leave enough room for adventure.”
