Looking Back

What follows here is my second post on this site, from August 30, 2014. I had no thoughts then about continuing for more than a few weeks. It has been fun, more fun than I would have expected. I want to thank you for reading and being part of this journey. Back then I didn’t […]

Today is Thursday, Right?

I knew I was supposed to do a blog post today, but didn’t get around to it.

Flashback Friday

Today is August 30, 2024. On August 30, 2014 I began posting regularly in this space. More than 3,000 post later I am wondering why I am doing this. Is it ego, boredom, or is there value in what I share. Whichever it is, I’m still having fun, as long as I don’t put too […]

Playing With Statistics

Memory is a wonderful thing – when it works. Today it doesn’t. I have mentioned occasionally that I have a number of half-finished posts I intend to eventually publish in this space. Some are on my phone, others on my computer. At least once a week I look and see if there is one I […]

Writer’s Block?

It’s Monday and as I looked over a couple of dozen half-finished posts, I couldn’t decide what should be in this space today. I’m out of excuses I was going to say I have a bad case of writer’s block, but the fact that I can string these words together would seem to contradict that. There […]

One Last Time…

I took a couple of days off from this space for some family activities and getting caught up on a few things. I felt mildly guilty, but only mildly. Blogging is something I do for fun. That I usually manage to post daily is an indication that I’m enjoying the experience. It is in the […]

One Of Those Days

As I write this, today’s post has been “saving” for about half an hour. Except it isn’t really, I don’t think. It’s lost somewhere in cyberspace. Maybe it will show up. If it does, I know there’s a typo. I was about to fix it once I had saved what I had so far, and […]

Feedback Time

Every September I think about asking for your input on what you read here. Most years I just think about it, this year I’m actually asking. The last time I did a poll like this was four years ago, and the webpage interface has changed since that time. I’m hoping I’ve created something that will […]

Another Milestone

Happy birthday to us. Random Thoughts From Lorne starts its tenth year today, more or less. While I did publish a post in 2011, I always think of September first as the startup date, even though it was actually August 30. . I must admit though,  I am surprised to be still in this space. […]

Another Year Ends…

I feel as if I should be marking the end of 2022 here somehow, but I am not sure exactly how. For many people it has been a year best forgotten quickly. The COVID -19 pandemic seems to drag on, though at least the panic part seems to have died down as we have come […]
