Making mistakes plus the Texas floods

Building a website (part 2) I continue with my website which I'm going to present to a large cohort of people to act as a stabilizer. We are part of the alternatives Society and there will be a three day meeting to do various things and make various plans.  The frequency that awake people dwell in is markedly different from the frequency of the ordinary person who goes around their business not...

I'm an optimistic person by nature and try to be a glass half full person but there are certain situations that gnaw at me. We should know by now that everything in the press is controlled and they have been laying it on a bit in recent weeks.
