Grey's Anatomy

I gave up watching soap operas, both daytime and evening, years ago. We have a Dish, and rarely watch network television. If we do watch network programming, it is when the reruns pop up on Dish Network. Our youngest daughter has been visiting for an extended period, and in desperation from watching...

Victory over the Carcasses!

If you've read this blog off and on, you may know that at my place of employment, we have a holiday dinner every year at this time that features roast turkey, stuffing, and gravy, plus various side dishes and desserts contributed by staff members. The past two years, among the prizes given by... Sign in to see full entry.

Bloggers Who Have Gone to . . .

Wherever bloggers go. Does anyone remember these long-gone people, those who left for personal reasons, those who left for financial reasons, those who were cannon-shot from Blogit? What happened to behindamask? I really enjoyed her. Too bad clairespringle got so busy she had to leave, but we were... Sign in to see full entry.

Stick-to-his-guns Romney

George Romney's grandfather, Miles Romney, had been one of the founding members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Nauvoo, Illinois. The elder Romney sired thirty children, one of who was Gaskell Romney, George's father. In 1885 when U.S. law forbade polygamy, a number of Mormons... Sign in to see full entry.

A Scalawag in Skagway

Born in Georgia in 1860, Jefferson Randolph (Soapy) Smith went west while still a young man, finding work as a cowboy in Texas. He eventually tired of the hard work and low wages offered by the cowboy life, and discovered that he could make more money with less effort by convincing gullible... Sign in to see full entry.

The Lotus Touts - Nice Rules To Live By

This is an Internet chain, and I offer it here without the blessings and curses usually attached. ONE. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully. TWO. Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as important as any other. THREE. Don't... Sign in to see full entry.

Urgent Question.

Well, maybe not urgent, but something I just thought of. If the saying, "Do what you love; the money will follow" is true, why is it that I have to get up and go to work every day when what I love to do is lie across the bed snuggling with my cats? Hmm? Sign in to see full entry.

Ack! Silent Scream!

I can't stand it. I am currently deeply engrossed in reading Angels and Demons by Dan Brown. I had started reading The Da Vinci Code, also by Brown, but changed books to keep them in chronological order for the protagonist, Robert Langdon. I have an image of Langdon in my mind. Now I find Tom Hanks... Sign in to see full entry.

Nasty Little Blogger Irritates Witchflower

OK, now Witchflower is really angry. Witchflower likes to sit outside in the garden and watch the little bloggers play. Some of the little bloggers are very smart little whippers, some are rather stupid, but mostly they are all cute. After a long day draped over a computer at work, Witchflower finds...

Do the Lower Orders Have Sex?

Just a few thoughts I had this morning on people and sex. There's a spirited discussion elsewhere on Blogit on marriage, couples, and sex. Regarding sex, some people want too much, some want too little or none, some want it inside marriage, some outside, and some want to just do it alone. Nothing is... Sign in to see full entry.
