Today is time for a walk down memory lane again and dig into the archives of Rantings Of A Third Kind since the beginning of time. Well at least from the beginning of this blog 😛
Here are a few featured today:

Let the Rantings continue!!!
“I’m great at multitasking. I can waste time, be unproductive, and procrastinate all at once”
The Illusion of Multitasking
In case you were asking
My answer:
I was multitasking
Procrastinating
Deferring
Until tomorrow
Without a sorrow
Delaying the inevitable
Playing the pivotable
Unproductive
Almost destructive
The illusion
Of accomplishment
Clear as day
In my mind
Everything a play
Nothing accomplished
Nothing adhered
Time is a wasting
That much is clear
It was just the illusion
Of multitasking

Week 14: Garden Treasure
This week’s theme: Garden Treasure
– a piece of ground adjoining a house, used for growing flowers, fruit, or vegetables
– a quantity of precious metals, gems, or other valuable objects.

Creatures of the Back Yard
They are strange and rusted
Quite possibly really busted
Those little peculiar creatures
Of my own back yard
It’s all part of nature
Despite the man made feature
Those little odd beasties
Of my own back yard
You really got to love them
They may be impure gems
Those little strange beings
Of my own back yard
“Labels are for cans, not people” Anthony Rap
The Label Maker
Hey you with your label maker!
You like tagging people don’t ya, you faker!
You went right by me and took one look
Stuck this sticker on my forehead without a single hook
I am having a hard time getting it off
Did you think it would make a great perma-label on this spot?
But guess what, you nut
I washed my face with potent soap in a rut
With a huff and a puff
My forehead finally crystal clear and clean again
Luckily without the use of acid rain
And nothing of it sticking to my brain
No amount of glue
Will keep the sticker on my face
Your plan went sadly askew
Or were you just in the wrong place
Memorize this lesson
Into your big fat head
Go find some cans for making the impression
And label some of them instead
