"We Should have Gone Through the Entire Building...We Didn't."

A few days ago I posted what looked like a perfect "Barney Fife Moment". Yet there was no humor in it. The gal guarding this huge football player was overcome, and locked in a cell. The convict escaped sith the keys and her gun. He proceeded to kill the judge and a court reporter, so there is no... Sign in to see full entry.

Star Players Subpoenaed to Hearing "Take Public Responsibility''

Remember a few years ago when sports casters and commentators were all talking about the ball? Evryone wanted to know if the ball nowadays was being made in such a way as to improve hitting. When Mark McGwyre broke Roger Maris' home run record, all you ever heard was that either the ball was juiced... Sign in to see full entry.

Blogging in a Writing Category -- Peak of My Writing Career!

I guess it's OK to talk about blogging in a writing category. I am having the time of my life here. I thought that blogging was cool and like someone with that obsessive compulsive disorder that WileyAnthony brought to us the other night -- hypergraphia I think it was -- I have been writing like a...

"23 is Old It's Almost 25 Which is Almost Mid twenties" Trouble in Paradise

When I first married I thought it would last forever. For one thing I took her word. For another, I couldn't imagine anyone walking out on a commitment to raise their kids in the best way possible. But, we never had MTV cameras watching our every move. Jessica and Nick Lachey have. Now it is... Sign in to see full entry.

Martha Shows Off the Poncho She Wore As She Left Prison. She's Back!

Whether you loved her or hated her, one thing is undeniable, she's back!! Marthat Stewart, a savvy businesswoman, had it calculated to the minute and the dollar last fall when she checked herself in to the West Virgina Women's Facility. You gotta admire that kind of gutsy performance! I think the... Sign in to see full entry.

England's Rose: Your Candle Burned Out Long Before Your Legend Ever Did!

I always choke up over this Elton John song, because the subject is such a witless victim. Not stupid, just chasing the dream, thinking that the world surely will relent. Yet, as we saw with Norma Jean Baker and Lady Di, the world is powerless to save us from ourselves. I invite you to read this... Sign in to see full entry.

Ciel, I Just Saw Your Question from Feb. Here It Is in Living Color!

On June 17, the band I had been playing with worked the Ankeny Classic Car Show. It was great fun and certainly well worth the work and effort we put into it. Then, having no other engagements, we divied up the weekend nights at our neighborhood coffee bar, Robert Brothers Coffee Bar, and began... Sign in to see full entry.

Yes, We Have Cameras in the Ceilings and on the Sides of the Tanks...

I don't know how many of you have read W.E.B.Griffin. He writes war novels, police detective novels. His strength is definitely the series about 1943. He wrote close to a dozen novels, all about 1943. They all happen in the various theaters of WW2. Taken together they make up quite a history of the... Sign in to see full entry.
