Biden – Bruce Gibson Design

I thought I’d try and write a blog post a couple of times a week. Then, I thought maybe once a week. I’m tickled at this point that I’m hitting a little better than one a month. Barely.

We’re still not accepting advance orders. The products we do ship with the Postal Service are up there with tossing a marble on a roulette wheel in Vegas. They may arrive, they may not. Either way, they’ll likely take a tour of the country before they land somewhere.

Not much to talk about that you haven’t already seen sewer pipes full of over the past several months. Depending on your political persuasion you’re either really happy or really screwed.

As a lot of you know, I took a social media break last summer. Dumped all of them for six months, and started back a couple of months ago from zero. Fact is, social media does very little for my businesses. Other folks mileage may vary, but for me, the hours are nowhere near worth the return. This time around, I’m using them primarily to be a smartass, and show a few photos/videos of what we’re doing around here when the mood moves me. There’s not much chance of my becoming an “influencer.” It’s a lot more fun when it’s not a “job.”

Beyond that, I got nothin’. I’ll be tracking the Presidential Dementia Project with the rest of you.

From what’s left of America …

I took about five months off to work on other projects. Gave up 100% of my “social media,” and pretty much stepped off the world train. It was, in a word–awesome. Turns out, I didn’t miss much of anything. I did miss a lot of the people, so my herd instinct brought me back.

If you believe even a small portion of what the drug company supported commercial media is spewing out there, you’d think the entire country has pretty much gone to hell. In a lot of ways, I’d agree that it has. But, fact is, we really don’t have that luxury. We’ve been through worse, with fewer options.

I had shut down this web domain at BruceGibsonDesign.com and put more focus on my domain at GibsonLeather.com. I decided that I wanted the punishment of trying to maintain two websites, so I reactivated this one with a new theme, and very little planning and direction. I don’t have a blog on the other site, and I missed it.

Overall, I’ve learned that most of the time, ignorance is, in fact, bliss. We don’t have enough letters in the alphabet to name all the storms in a busy hurricane season, ALL gun laws are unconstitutional, our immune systems are shot, most politicians aren’t people we’d allow into our homes, and it really doesn’t matter who the President is. I’ve seen a few over the last near-60-years, and I can’t name one that has made what I’d call a “difference.” That’s probably a good thing–if they had that power, we’d really be screwed.

Beyond all that, it’s nice to be back.
