Thoughts While Shaving
Spread the love

Thoughts While ShavingLove the weather, occasionally I enjoy just sitting and thinking and listening to the tick-tock of a clock and dream of yesteryear, today and tomorrow.

Clemson fans are celebrating their recent win over Alabama for the National College Football Championship.  Many interesting stories about Coach Dabo Swinney and QB Deshawn Watson, as well as other team members, have surfaced.

The Hester household is enjoying as well.  Our oldest (Rick) played college baseball a couple of years at Clemson, and it was a good experience.  I have had a bright orange Clemson cap for sometime, haven’t worn it much, but plan to.

I have no opinion about Obamacare, never used it, never had a reason to spend time attempting to understand,  but what I do have an opinion on is a new plan being proposed by some in the US Senate that will have this health care issued moved from Washington to each individual state.  That is scarry.  A perfect example of how a federal program becomes a state issue, and a portion of the cost may well become a state expense.  And states seldom pay all the cost, they are often eager to share with county governments (ex. Medicaid).  As I have stated in the past, if it is a federal program, they (the feds) should deal with it, not push down to states, including the cost. Be careful what you ask for. Understand, doesn’t matter what I think.

Dr. Donald Helm, longtime provider of eye care in this area suffered much damage to his office in Bladenboro during the recent storm.  Many have ask questions about what, when and where related to their eye care provider.  Late info, Dr. Helms has folded his practice into Triangle Visions of Lumberton, located on Oakridge Blvd and he is or will be providing eye care.

Remember when Newton Minow, former FCC Chairman, called TV a ‘vast wasteland?’

You might be an engineer if you even save the power cord from a broken appliance.

My Reality Check bounced……

Are snakes afraid of other snakes?
