Lechery, lechery;still, wars and lechery: nothing else holds fashion. A burning devil take them! A friend who is still in the Navy and I were doing some quality drinking the other night. He was bemoaning the outbreak of the what he calls “the morals police”. He had recently been down

Learn something new every day…..
No post yesterday. As we get ready to move, the S.O. and I have been going together to the gym every afternoon. We’ve taken to eating a big lunch, then doing treadmill and stair-stepper in the late afternoon and then a very light dinner. Last night I did that, had

Woke up this morning to a cloudy overcast looking seriously like rain. Accordingly, my golf plans were aborted. So I enjoyed the peace and quiet until the S.O. woke up. With my upcoming move, she is going to be a unique problem…she’ll be going with me, mostly because I’m too

“You have sat too long here for any good you have been doing. Depart, I say, and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go”.- Oliver Cromwell to the Long parliament. Yesterday the S.O. had to work. So I stayed home and got some things done

Today was an up and down kind of day. Got some sort of good news or depending on how things turn out it could be bad news. Either way change is coming for poor little Skippy-san. Your humble scribe has known its coming, but I’ve been hoping for the best.
