LIFE IS REAL NICE WHEN YOU’RE RESTING ON THE BEACH.
See what a curmudgeon thinks about, when he has time to think. I studied art and architecture in college and left without a degree. College was not a total waste of time and money, I did sell a few watercolor paintings along the way. For 44 years I’ve been married to the same fantastic lady. We raised 2 fantastic sons, have 2 great daughters-in-law and 2 terrific grandchildren. Just as important as what I just mentioned is that on September 1st, 2011 I didn’t retire, I changed lanes. Now I write about anything I want… social commentary, funny stories, politicians, art museums, religion, our governments, wasted food, mobile phone etiquette, or anything else that crosses my path. I don’t take myself seriously. I have no ulterior motive. At 70 I’m not seeking fame or fortune, don’t have time for it. When I want to say something, I want a place to say it without being interrupted. If someone reads what I write, fine; if not, that’s fine too. If I make someone laugh or smile, or rethink something, that’s good. Since most of my followers are not prolific readers, I’m not a prolific writer. I write a NETPUB when I’m in the mood. Regardless, “Thank you very much for taking the time to stop by .” Just call me “HEY RICH”,everyone else does… NOTE: NETPUB translates to “BLOG” . I hate the word BLOG ! http://www.noulteriormotive.com
I have awarded you a blogger award! All the details are in my post here: http://littleblogoflettinggo.com/2013/05/20/more-awards-oh-my/

Sorry….I shouldnt say blog
your website!
No need to apologize over terminology (that’s just the grumpy old man in me coming out) … it’s the content that counts…
Hi Rich, thanks for stopping by to visit today
Nice NETPUB you have going on.
It’s too bad we have to guess what you think, maybe you should consider just speaking your mind! LOL!!
Regarding me speaking my mind… A couple years ago, when I worked for someone else, I supervised a few people. From time to time, someone would complain about this, or that; this was my response, “Please remember, we don’t pick the tune, we just dance when they play.” I certainly don’t want to sound smug, but I’m my own boss now. Now I pick the tune and I decide when I’m going to dance. And I do this with complete respect for everyone and everything I touch…except maybe for our politicians at all the various levels of government.
I don’t take myself seriously and I have no ulterior motive or motives.
I’m glad you enjoyed browsing on my website, and that’s all I can ask for.
