Coli, a bacteria that normally occurs in the lower gut of warm blooded animals and manufactures Vitamin K for the host, but of which, virulent strains can cause severe illness and even death when … Continue reading
Betwixt and Between
This week’s Header Challenge theme was selected by Stewart, aka IMac. He said it was because we were betwixt and between Christmas and New Year.

Childhood Memories
This week’s challenge for a header theme came up as I was finalizing plans to go visit my older sister to scan some photos that she has that I don’t. I thought it would be a great opportunity, I thought it was uncanny timing. But that would have been to easy now wouldn’t it Dear … Continue reading

Just Thinking Through The Eye of a Mutt
I was raised Catholic but from my mother’s side, German, French and Danish in ethnicity. My father claimed primarily Scotch-Irish decent and, until his third child was born, was Presbyterian in faith. But not unlike the the first Scotch-Irish that came to North America in the seventeen hundreds, my father felt strongly for the oppressed … Continue reading
