How did he get his green thumb? And what is his view of how things happened during his first year? It has to be a unique view, not everyone is a Plantasian.

Violet started the conversation. She always had to start the conversation, but she didn’t really mind. She liked giving Brunettes a chance to start the conversation, knowing that would never happen. Waiting just long enough, Violet asked, “What shall we do today?” She tried to make it sound royal. They waited and waited, then together Brunettes said, “I don’t know.” “Well, in that case …”, Violet was starting to say; when Brunettes said together, “Today, we get a name!” This was very surprising to Violet. It was not surprising that Brunettes said something together. They said and did everything in unison. It was this request for a name that was so surprising. They had a name! So, Violet stated what she assumed was obvious to all of them. “You have a name, Brunettes.” “NO!!!!!!!!! She wants a name!” they screamed, pointing at each other. “Brunettes, you have a name!” said Violet, sounding as exasperated as a six-year old could sound. It was at times like this, that she wished Mother was here. She corrected herself. There had never been a time like this before. Brunettes always did everything the same. She thought they liked their name. There had never been a problem before. “We want two names!” they pouted, a most professional, four-year old pout. “Brunettes and Brunettes!” Violet said, proud of thinking of that all on her own. Brunettes shook their heads violently back and forth. “No! That won’t do! That won’t do at all!!!”Violet considered for a moment. She was Violet. Other people in the Dynasty had violet hair – all of them except Brunettes, to be precise. But nobody else was named Violet, only she. So, she supposed Brunettes should each have a name. But how would anyone tell them apart. Who would know which girl had which name. But, Violet was only stumped on that for a moment until she realized that it didn’t really matter. If Brunettes had two names, she would only have to say one and they would both respond. After all, they both responded to Brunettes.

An Electric Car is often referred to as an electric vehicle or EV. In Select Your Electric Car, I explore the various options of EVs available in the United States. If you live in California or in one of the other states which have similar zero emission vehicle standards, you will have more choices. These states have laws that car companies selling cars in their state must provide a certain percentage of EVs. I am going to focus on the EVs which are widely available in the US now (2018). I’ll compare them, so that hopefully you will be able to purchase the EV which fits your lifestyle – or the lifestyle which you plan to adopt once you own an EV. I’ll also look at a few other EVs which are not as widely available. In 2019, car dealers will be offering more models of EVs nationally, at least that’s the plan. I’m thinking that you might want a car with more of a track record. So I won’t be saying as much about those models, though I will mention them. The US ranks seventh in number of EVs sold, following China, United Kingdom, France, Sweden, Netherlands, and Norway who is at #1. If you wanted to wait until 2019 to drive your EV, and you had $200,000 ($200K) to spare, and you had a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) or could hire a driver who did; why not just purchase a Tesla Electric Semi. After all, Elon Musk is now saying it will have a 600-mile range. Even if he’s only 75% correct, that’s still a 450-mile range. I could drive into town (Olympia) every day of the week and up to the big city (Seattle) on the weekend. And I still wouldn’t have to charge my rig. And in Aug 2018, a Tesla Semi made it from Coast to Coast across the US. It did have to be recharged. But the driver was able to find charging stations which were powerful enough to charge it. But where would I park the thing? Besides I don’t have a CDL. And the few people I know who do aren’t interested in being my personal chauffeur. I also definitely don’t have $200K that I can afford to spend on my next vehicle. I won’t talk about the Tesla Semi in this book. You can read about that vehicle in my book – The Xybrid Vehicle. I’ll also mention techniques for driving an EV which will expand their range. At least these techniques work when driving my 2015 Electric Nissan Leaf.

My Toyota Echo is rated at 36mpg for the average driver. I can get 43mpg. Some people only get 25mpg in their Echo. Techniques for getting better gas mileage are called hypermiling. In this book, I discuss 13 hypermiling techniques. I also discuss how to calculate gas mileage so you can tell how your mileage is improving as you apply some or all of these techniques. Just think, now you'll have a few extra bucks to buy a lottery ticket, a flower for a special friend, a soda or a stick of gum for yourself, or a bottle of bubbles for your kid. Perhaps you'll save it to tip your favorite wait person a little extra. You might even stick it in your bank account to help pay bills.

This book is not about chemical elements. I’m going to offer my apologies for that up front, as I know that might be disappointing to a few of you. Rather, this book is about the basic elements which make up the Earth, which make up each of us, which make up everything. These Elements go by various names depending on which Element Theory you reference. I’ll explain that later on in this book. Then I’ll use a standard naming convention for each of these Elements. This book is about the Elements of Earth, Water, Fire, Spirit, and Sky. It is also about the Elements Love and Life. I explain each of these Elements and how each pertains to a Personality Type. I give as much information as is known about each Element, so that you can better answer if that Element or Personality Type is you.

A reader commented, You made something as mundane as making applesauce very INTERESTING! I, myself, don't consider applesauce to be mundane, but I will agree, the applesauces I make are very interesting. Strawberry Cheesecake Applesauce is available at Amazon, contains my gourmet applesauce recipes. These are not ordinary applesauces. These are Strawberry Cheesecake Applesauce, Chocolate Toffee Applesauce, Eggnog Applesauce, Peppermint Applesauce, Peanut Butter Applesauce, and many more. Strawberry Cheesecake Applesauce takes gourmet applesauce up an even further notch from my other gourmet applesauce flavors. I get various reactions when I tell people about my Gourmet Applesauces. These range from “You can’t do that!”, “So big deal”, “Yes that sounds good”, to “That sounds really good!” I’ve made Strawberry Cheesecake Applesauce twice now. The first time it turned out – “That sounds really good! Drool city!” The second time was more like – “Yes that sounds good.” It was ok, but nothing to write home about. That’s good, because now I can tell you what I did right the first time and what I didn’t do so right the second time. Strawberry Cheesecake Applesauce is not just a collection of recipes. There are also stories, and information on how to choose the correct apples for your sauce. Also included is an Applesauce Flavors possibilities list. A friend of mine confided that he probably wouldn’t have read it if it had been just recipes. Both he and my neighbor said they read right through it from beginning to end.

Another of my mystical poetry books in the series: The Language of the Wind. In this book, we look at things from the horizon. But the horizon is just another way of saying the edge. Sometimes when looking at things from the edge, it's the edge of getting happy or the edge of going crazy. Sometimes you're pulled back from the brink just in time. In this book there are White Water Journeys, the Outer Wondrousness, the Perihelion of Bliss, Dreamscapes and Funnels, Wisdom, Cunning, and Loneliness, Rhythms on the Brink, the Inner Marvel, and Heart Tonic. Then we get really close with Approaching the Edge, perhaps a little too closely. Instilling the Edge, You can't get closer than this. Of course that's only true until you do. Then you're on the Far Edge of the Horizon. I've also included a couple of mystical short stories - Miguelito: The smallest sueno (dream). That Hole Inside You, featuring your favorite striped mammal - Skunk. Mystics try to describe the indescribable with words. They bring you in touch with the spiritual world. Some mystical writing is hard to understand. I'd like to think that mine is easy. And some of it is very humorous. Of course, what could be more spiritual than chocolate? I've included two poems on that. Rating G. Reading Level: Very Easy 4th Grade. Longest Word: Tremendousness
