Colors

Strange enough myself and Mrs. Whitaker's, one of the grand lady activists in Niagara Falls, granddaughter Evelyn experienced racial discrimination, a hot button issue, at our workplace located in the old Board of Education Building in the 600 block of Sixth Street on Walnut Avenue behind the...

Monday Heart Warmers

Some say size doesn't matter. We lay there, many of us not ever in life knowing what an orgasm really is until a close friend might tell us what it is supposed to be like or until we experience it for the very first time in our lives. A large majority of us go through the motions of something... Sign in to see full entry.

Grandma Moses

Author, Anna Mary Robertson ( September 7, 1860 - December 13, 1961) "Painting's not so important. The important thing is keeping busy." "If I didn't start painting, I would have raised chickens." "Life is what we make it, always has been, always will be." Her sister suggested that she paint after... Sign in to see full entry.

Idiosyncratic Friday

"One dark night, when people were in bed, Mrs. O' Leary lit a lantern in her shed, The cow kicked it over, winked its eye, and said, There'll be a hot time in the old town tonight." Talk about the Chicago Fire! Strong evidence points to several other more likely causes of the Chicago Fire thus... Sign in to see full entry.

Suicides

Jumping is not my preference in committing suicide. I am a coward and that would be too hurtful. I thought about my wrists; too bloody. And, how could anybody take a knife and suddenly thrust it into their chest? No! Pills would be the funk way out. Was I really seeking attention and affection that... Sign in to see full entry.

In the Pew

It will inescapably lead to a baneful and most likely evil argument and/or debate they say therefore we should never discuss religion or politics. Who are "they" anyway? And, are not there those among us that are mature enough that can exercise finesse in talking over the themes of many sermons... Sign in to see full entry.

Rural Jargon

We talked, a friend that was visiting and I, about Niagara Falls and what was going on around town and some of our old friends. I learned first-hand that a motion had been made to locate the culinary institute planned by Niagara County Community College right here in the downtown area. What better...

Monday Heartwarmers

Please brace yourself for this one which is a first in medical history that most doctors know of. I'm going to throw it right at you so hold on tight as this is a very unusual oddity with, of course, a heartwarming ending which I try to relay on Blue Mondays, the day of the week in which we need a...

Courthouse

Everything starts with a plan which is something that you don't always follow but is a good idea to have even though you do not adhere to the scheme of things in achieving the highest of the high or best results; the bliss of every word defined under the thesaurusized word plan.

Everybody has one. What is it?

San Francisco with its Golden Gate Bridge has one which crowns their magnificent Civic Center. Gavin wants to "kick the habit!" That is the habit that drug stores have, e.g. Walgreens. He wants to ban the sale of tobacco in pharmacies making it the first city in the nation to do so. What next - in... Sign in to see full entry.
