Month 22: Finding Life’s rePurpose

Posted on September 29, 2024April 21, 2026 By Ken Gaughan

What can you do with milk of magnesia, a large bag of scalding water, a handful of de-icer? Nope, these aren't ingredients to make any sort of explosive, like baking soda added to a 2-liter bottle with vinegar or the classic erupting volcano model for a 5th grade science fair....

Week 95: Happy Labor Day Week!

Posted on September 22, 2024April 21, 2026 By Ken Gaughan

Another week down 🙂 Monday was Labor Day (again), which meant a holiday meal! The meal was no exception like so many before: hamburger, hot dogs, potato salad, mac and cheese, and a cinnamon-streusel (the best part). The same 'ole routine this week, so I do not have much to...

Month 21: You Must Be This Bad to Ride!

Posted on September 22, 2024April 21, 2026 By Ken Gaughan

Wow, I can't believe that I've been at Morgantown for 21 months! While many days and weeks monotonously drag, time certainly continues. Being imprisoned is like a mandated rollercoaster ride: the ups, downs, corkscrews, sudden drops, gasps of breath (but all minus the thrill). Each rider experiences a different ride,...

Week 88: Delicious Treats

Posted on July 29, 2024April 21, 2026 By Ken Gaughan

The week started off with the headlines that President Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed VP Harris as Democratic nominee. Just weeks ago, the presidential race seemed like it was slated to be a boring run between Biden and Trump. Then, the debate drew attention to Biden's cognitive...

Month 20: Vulnerabilities

Posted on July 29, 2024April 21, 2026 By Ken Gaughan

The computer system here went down on Friday and Saturday due to the global blackout from a cybersecurity flawed update for Microsoft's cloud service. Globally, the system outage showed how vulnerably reliant our daily operations are on computers, including governments, hospitals, schools, airlines, cell phones, companies... The culprit of this...

Week 86: Ice-Sassins

Posted on July 22, 2024April 21, 2026 By Ken Gaughan

The highlight of this week culminated with the assassination attempt of former President Trump. This tragic incident mourns the loss of life and innocent casualties, refocuses the priorities for both parties, showcases the vulnerability any individual has of political violence, and celebrates the importance of a free democratic country. While...

Week 85: Happy 248th Birthday, ‘Merica!

Posted on July 8, 2024April 21, 2026 By Ken Gaughan

This 4th of July marked the 248th Independence Day for America. A gathering of the very savvy, intelligent men drafted and signed the core of our democracy, the Constitution. With all the festive gatherings and celebratory fireworks, we are reminded of how fundamental the tenets of this document are for...

Week 84: A Debatable Debacle

Posted on July 1, 2024April 21, 2026 By Ken Gaughan

The big news this week: the first presidential debacle between Biden and Trump. Two senile elderly men positioned to be the next president of the greatest nation. I made the very rare appearance in one of the television rooms to spectate. For me, the most impressive discourse came from CNN's...

Month 19: Still-ness

Posted on June 27, 2024April 21, 2026 By Ken Gaughan

This week marks 19 months of incarceration and an incredibly hot week for the records. In preparation for weekly church service, I looked at the readings used from the Bible, which focused on Jesus calming the sea. Exactly four years ago to the week was just as remarkably hot and...

Week 82: Another Week Down

Posted on June 23, 2024April 21, 2026 By Ken Gaughan

The past week has been status quo, which is a great thing for me. I appreciate your flexibility with letting me vent about the advocacy group in last week's post that seems to just prey upon nearly incarcerated felons. Hunter Biden was added to the list of felons this past...
