Greetings from a small town in rural North Carolina. Today, started with a conversation in the dark, ” Don’t you have anything to say to me?” Uh, oh. “Ummm. No. Unless you want me to say that I think you are being unreasonable, and I know full well that this

I retract everything I wrote in the previous post. No fireworks happened when S.O. met offspring of yours truly. True you could cut the tension with a knife-but no rudeness ensued. Polite remarks all around. So why am I blogging when I have to drive 6 hours tomorrow to a
Continue readingA good story about the S.O.
Lots to talk about in the world these days-including the Obama Iraq tour 2008. However those things will have to wait for another time. I had some fun with the S.O. in my previous post. I’m banking that she does not read the blog-but since I passed all of the

But today was a longer drive than I thought it would be. And we are both tired. Someone in the passenger seat was REALLY tired, for most of the trip up: When I looked over and saw that face, I just could not resist snapping a pix. Gomen ne? Consider

Rest in peace, and may God grant you life eternally. MY MOTHER January 15,1918-July 15, 2008 No Love like a Mother’s Love There is no love, like a mother’s love, no stronger bond on earth… like the precious bond that comes from God, to a mother, when

I’m typing this from a hotel room in Richmond. Why am I here? I’m asking myself the same question. Airplane takes off out of RDU flies to our nations capitol. Decent is bumpy, due to storms closing on the city. Pilots take a go-around due to winds at Reagan and

To talk about the war with neocon supporters. Andrew Sullivan rightly castigates Uncle Jimbo, Bill Kristol, and all the other actors in the theater of the absurd: “perhaps you could provide some convincing evidence that the U.S. can invade a country, topple its regime, leave immediately – and expect a
