Pig Ears?

Another day with single digit temps. It's eight right now, with a high expected to be nine. It might get extra fancy and hit ten, but for dramatic effect, let's say it only hits nine. The low tonight is supposed to be 'sub zero.' Hurray! With about ten days until Christmas, I'm trying to figure out... Sign in to see full entry.

Do You Want Some Bigger Chunks?

While I haven't got it formatted to post to Amazon yet, I've finished with my re-write of "The Haunting of A Small Town." It wasn't as badly flawed as another novella I just re-did, but I made some small, yet significant changes to it. I'm hoping to be able to format it and then send it to Amazon...

Hmm. With an influx of some new people or people returning after small summer vacations, I see that a story I abandoned over in the "Mature" is picking up a lot of hits. I had that story ripe to be finished, but that was about the time my brother went into the hospital with severe lung issues. He... Sign in to see full entry.

Late Night Musings

Nice day for being close to the 'top of the world.' If I read it right, we are at 22 degrees and may see temps in the 30's for a few days next week. I can take it. I was up late last night working on several stories. It was an odd situation that happens now and again. I was working on one thing and... Sign in to see full entry.

I 'own' "It's A Wonderful Life" on Amazon and just watched it again. The world needs more people like George Bailey. Sign in to see full entry.

The Shill Game

A much warmer day today. I think it is something like 20 right now, a heat wave over the past three days where the highs were no more than 8 degrees. My house is nice and warm, a testament to its original builders and the work I did in anticipation of the weather that this particular part of God's... Sign in to see full entry.

Just Call Me "Saltines"

In the "Who really cares?" department, some of my posts are formatting oddly. I see one posted in something like a 72 point font and when I reposted it, it went to double spaced. The last time I deliberately double spaced anything was in college and as Don McLean sang, that was "A Long Long Time... Sign in to see full entry.

Mama Was Upset!

I think I slept about ten hours, something that is highly unusual for me. Besides the long drive in terrible driving conditions, it was cold. It was 3 above at 8AM toay with nothing to gain most of the day. I stopped in a small road side park on the way back yesterday near Naubinway along US 2 in... Sign in to see full entry.

Home

It took about two hours longer than normal, but I have arrived home unscathed. The freeways had almost one clear lane due to the snow and the second lane was hit and miss the entire trip. No one with half a brain was in that lane unless you could see a clear path to get around the guy in front of... Sign in to see full entry.
