Above is a photo taken earlier this week at a doctor's office. My dad, James Kazee, is on the left and Jack Goodnight is to the right. Both are WWII Navy vets. I don't really know Mr. Goodnight (yes, that is really his name). My dad and I had the pleasure of meeting him when he noticed my dad's navy hat, and struck up a conversation. I sat and listened while they discussed the places they'd

So, here's what happened: My milkshake brought all the boys to the yard and, I threw up my hands and rolled my eyes in bewilderment. I had to ask myself what the heck I was going to do with/about these yummy beasts that I love, yet often find intolerable. I'm beginning to understand why some men and certain cults go for polygamy, not that I would want to actually marry any of them. I suppose

Many of you have probably never heard of the A.F.A., but I get e-mails from them. They report on a lot of important (matter of perspective) moral issues. While I don't subscribe to every opinion expressed by this group, they are, in my opinion, on target in many cases. What is really sad, is that I read this e-mail message today (see below), and I wasn't shocked. I should have been reading it

This is an e-mail that my mother received from her brother (my uncle), that came to him and others from a close, personal friend of his. In other words, this is not some e-mail propaganda, this is absolutely real and true. No matter your faith, or lack thereof, it bears everyone's consideration, especially with the elections rapidly coming upon us. I was strongly considering Obama. I am

It is a sad and terrible thing to hear about kids ganging up on other kids and bullying them at school. When it happens by a faculty member, it is beyond deplorable. To make matters worse, the principle of the school, the one person that could step up to the proverbial plate and correct this, appears to be more concerned with saving face, than with doing what is right.

As some of you may be aware, I've recently returned to OSU to continue working towards my degree in psychology. It's so good to be back at it after a significant length of time away from it (Winter of '06). So far, the quarter is off to a very good start, and I am eager to keep plugging away at it until I reach my goal. It's easy to burn out on anything, but I really do value the opportunity to

I must admit I was skeptical about a new invite to yet another "friending" type website, but the Association of Virtual Worlds, is seriously cool! Don't get me wrong, I enjoy my Facebook and Myspace, but so far, I like this better than either of those. The reason? There are several, and I'll be happy to address all of the positive differences that I'm finding, here. :)Facebook is a very cool

I recently came across a semi-cool website called MetaRL. Those that know me, know that I enjoy my Second Life, immensely. That being the case, I wanted to check this out. This website is currently dedicated to the virtual worlds of Second Life, IMVU and Entropia.The website platform is basically a rewards system, and consists of several components, most seemingly aimed towards giving it's

The more news that I see and hear, regarding very young people committing acts of unspeakable violence and hate, the more disturbed I become. Having a teen myself, sometimes keeps me awake at night. I can't help but to worry for her safety, especially as she gets older. I wonder if it's even fair to bring children into this world that we live in? They don't stay innocent for long, these days.The

Yesterday, I was watching CNN, Nancy Grace, in particular. Major topic of discussion was the tragedy of the murders of Lauren Burk, and Eve Carson. Both college students shot and killed within 2 days of each other. Many things were discussed in relation, ages, schools, friends, families, leads, suspects, police, etc... What kept resonating, and has stayed foremost in my mind, are the cameras.

I love my Second Life. I have made a home for myself there, and only wish my real life were half as easy. I have learned a few skills, and am working on growing a small retail business for myself there, as well. I have met some very kind people, and truly value the bonds of friendship that have been forged there. In many ways, it has helped to restore my faith in humanity. It's all too easy

This blog is based upon my reading of The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas by Ursula K LeGuin - from The Wind's Twelve Quarters. It can be found here: http://harelbarzilai.org/words/omelas.txtI would encourage anyone to read this short story, but I will give you an overview and my take on it, here.Imagine, if you will, a society straight out of a fairy tale.

That's right. I said avatarDs. Why? Many reasons, the most prominent being my uncontrollable desire to roll my eyes, or throw something, everytime my Second Life "partner", shows off a new form/fictional character, beast, etc.. Don't get me wrong, the various avatars available in SL are far beyond what's pictured here, and most are quite impressive. My issue lies in the fact that I "
