Access Denied

 Hacks. 

Oh, how I dislike that word.

The word "hack" can be used appropriately, as in someone gaining unauthorized access into something, which is not good.  I have a problem with the word and the act of hacking, just to make things clear.  It's acceptable to use the word to describe a cough, but I hope none of you have a hacking cough.

What really bothers me is pop culture's use of the word "hack" to mean a shortcut or clever solution.  And to set the record straight, there is no such thing as a life hack, because there are no shortcuts in life.  Call it five IDEAS for... whatever your topic.  Doesn't that sound better than hack? 

Let's lighten things up.

To be clear, this blog is not advice of any kind!

Have a great week!  Don't forget to visit Happy Tuesday and Random Tuesday Thoughts.
