Another BIG Change

Decades. Funny when you can measure something in Decades. I have had a “web presence” for decades. The past TWO decades was on PUTTPUTTZONE.COM … originally, it was to be both my personal blog site and a family (Putney Family) website. The “family” website never materialized. But, the website was mine. It was also our email address ending. It was annoying to typing it when you are “One Fingering It” on a “smart device”.

Annnnyway, many changes have taken place in the past couple of decades. SOO, it was more than time to change the web address as well.

Puttputtzone.com is fading away …. (slower than I want to contemplate … much is involved with a website change.)

Random Entries (this blog) and Depictions (my photo blog) are moving (slowly) to their new home … MichTenn.com. In the process, a NEW blog is going to be joining the mix (more details later).

Life is very much full of changes.

My Thought Of The Day

A virus spreads rapidly to the WHOLE WORLD.
It is China coming after the US.
Countries all over the world had a horrible flood of deaths from this virus.
It is the media trying to scare us.
Cases rise quickly in the US.
It is the media and the Democrats trying to destroy the economy.
People are still dying around the world from the virus.
It is still the media blowing things up.
Cases are spiking in the US.
It is the hospitals and medical facilities faking numbers to get more money.
The death toll is rising rapidly.
It is the media exaggerating to scare up in support of the Democrats who are behind it all.
Hospitals are being overrun.
The Democrats are using the media to sway the election.
People are dying.
It is not as bad as the flu.
People are dying.
It is not as bad as abortion.
People are dying.
It is all a Democratic hoax.
People are dying.
It will all be gone after Trump wins again.
People are dying.
You have no proof.
People are dying.
I will post memes and share other people’s views in response.
People are dying.
I am offended that you keep talking about someone dying .. their life was not important to me nor my pocketbook.

Places In My Past

The Tasty Freeze, corner of N. Bridge Street & W. Front Street, Grand Ledge, Michigan
J & J’s Restaurant, Hwy 22, Gleason, Tennessee
Bubba’s Bagels, N. Highland Ave, Jackson, Tennessee
Davis-Kidd Booksellars & Café, North Parkway & N. Highland Ave, Jackson, Tennessee

Growing up, these places were an incredibly huge part of my life. Good memories. No, GREAT memories. It was not mainly “the food” at these places that made them so important. It was something else.

Walking down to .. hanging out at The Tasty Freeze was something to do with friends.

Going to J & J’s was a great place to go for good food. It was also a great place to go to feel comfortable .. to feel special. Junior and Joyce ALWAYS made you feel special! Both examples of how we should be as humans.

Bubba’s Bagels … amazing food! It was a great place to gather with friends. In a sense, it was like “Cheers” … where everybody knows your name. It was a place for people to gather to play games, talk, laugh, play music, be a community.

Davis-Kidd … It was a place for the whole family to go and chill. They had a great selection books and other media. They had a café where you could enjoy freshly prepared meals. AMAZING Fruit Tea was served. This was also a great place to gather with friends, hang out, chill.

Why am I pointing these places out?

These were places to be with people .. like-minded people I suppose .. people to interact with in ways that did NOT involve hate-filled arguing or finger pointing. Emotions where shared and felt .. in person. People got to know people, as people, as the varied group of individuals they are.
