I recently wrote about the gap that often exists between words and action.

I wasn’t sure what to expect when i ordered this 30×50 blue polyethylene tarp that was listed on the Rona web site. But I was pleasantly surprised to receive a 30×50 […]
I’ve been thinking about actions vs. words a lot lately.

Topics of Conversation Through The Evening (Beyond the Usual Generic Topics of Work, Family, Travel) How Empty the Restaurant Was On A Saturday Night […]
