For those of you who aren't me…and I've noticed a surprisingly large number of people who aren't.
Not the best of times It was the worst of times and trust me I didn’t need two cities to know it was, because I was in the drive-thru line, at a local hamburger place. If I had another city, some best of times might’ve shown up, but I couldn’t have gotten there anyway. I …
A great Opening I have come to the conclusion that there are two kinds of people; Those who eat roadkill opossum and Those who don’t. Now, isn’t that a great opening line? Old Charlie Dickens never thought of that one. Did he? Of course, he never wrote in the caliber of Mr. Ohh! either. That …

A cheesy State I would like to tell you all about the great state of Wisconsin, USA. All you lovers of bad jokes now want me to say, “I’d like, to but I can’t! Har, Har” This is not true, so there. However, I did exaggerate when I said great. Nice, or okay, might’ve been …
A word And now a word from our sponsor. This is a famous line, which has been used since the days of the Pharaohs, to announce that a commercial is coming.

In the before time, I thought my daughter turning sixteen would worry me to exhaustion because she would suddenly develop “Girl Parts”, become an emotional hurricane, start talking about boys, and want expensive clothes I can’t afford. I have enough problems without a pubescent female homo-sapien roaming my house wanting me …

Let's start with the Disclamer There are some things in life which a person has been waiting for, and they never even knew they were waiting for it. Wow, that sounded intelligent!
