Have you ever had a cold? I mean, really had a cold? Of course you have. Well, at least, you probably have. Most of us have, if not all. I think. I’m pretty sure of it. Yes. Who knows…you may even have one now. If so, so sorry to hear that. As I write this, I have a cold. An unpleasant, annoying, frustratingly rip-roaring cold. The fact of the matter is that I dot a toad and I’m all tuffed up (translation, if absolutely necessary: “I...

Rol here. I’ve been thinking about God a lot this week. I’ve been thinking about how good God is. How very good. And I’ve been thinking about how I oftentimes don’t truly appreciate how good God is. I don’t. I know I should, and I try, but I get distracted. By me. I think about me, I focus on me, I seem to care more about me me me. I admit it—it’s the truth, and it’s something I want to change.

Let’s talk about cloaks. Yes, cloaks. You know, those long-and-dramatic-yet-epically-useful creations of heavy fabric. I’m here to tell you that cloaks are awesome. “Why so awesome?” you may ask.

No, scratch that—you glide into a room. Your cloak billows behind you and you...

In fact, I realized something the other day, and maybe you’ve realized it yourself: The more you think about being tired, the more tired you become.  In fact, I wholeheartedly believe that tiredness begets tiredness. (And I use the word “begets” because I just don’t get to use it often enough, plus it sounds like...

Fhfyrd here. Kearth let me jump in with thoughts about fire safety. What a great guy he is…even if he does say so himself. As I comment on fire safety, Kearth asked me to remind you of his previously mentioned WireFire (Wi-Fi) invention. There you go—consider yourself reminded.  I also want to note that when following the advice you are about to read, make sure an adult is nearby you and the fire, and paying attention. It is...

I like flying wagons. I genuinely like them. I like them because they haven’t been invented yet. I like things that haven’t been invented yet because then I get to think about inventing them and especially the fact that I may be the first or even only one who has ever thought of them, ever, not that that matters, really, but it matters to me. Really. For example: Flying Wagon—I start with that because of course one should be invented....
