The winning photos from Iowa, 2022 Edition
Some time ago, I received a postcard alerting me that two of my four entries to the Iowa State Fair were accepted, with at least one of them claiming an award. Here’s the postcard for proof. Yesterday, the results were posted on the Iowa State Fair website. First of all, as much as I thought…
Read MoreK-Chuck Radio: Judith, Archie and Olivia, three voices of Australia
Three of Australia’s most important singing voices passed away within a few days of each other. Each one brought their own passion and joy to music, along with their own view of social importance and conscience. Obviously, the most worldwide loss goes to the legendary Olivia Newton-John.

Read More“How much does a guest post cost on your website?”
After writing 5,500+ blog posts in a 13-year span – without taking a single day off in that time – there are moments when I might consider bringing in a guest blogger. I’ve done that on a couple of rare occasions, mostly when I feel a good friend of mine deserves to share their information,…
Read MoreMy entries for the 2022 New York State Fair Photography Competition are …
Last year, I finally obliterated the “Syracurse” – a portmanteau of “curse” and “Syracuse,” a personal concept that my photos were good enough for every other competition EXCEPT for the New York State Fair.

Read MoreAnother new personal record – over 750 miles, over 100 miles per gallon!
My 2017 Chevrolet Volt Premier (“Lightning’s Girl”) is a pretty incredible car. And one of its most incredible features is its fuel mileage consumption. I can run the car in essentially a 50-50 mode, using both battery and gasoline, for my travel. Gasoline for highway trips, battery for short trips. Yesterday, I achieved a milestone…
