Blogger Resigns Blogit! Membership amid all-out Civil War..................

Well, I said you were racist and I paid for it. I said you were not thinking clearly -- and even though I believe that to be true -- I definitely was wrong to bring my opinion so strongly forward. Briefly, the issue was whether we allow business between our government and that of the United Arab... Sign in to see full entry.

Are these bloggers using their retirement wisely?

Quickly now, I have squandered my hour this morning, I don't know where the time goes in the A.M. But I wanted to talk about retirement. I used to dread the idea of staying home all day and staring at these four walls. But now... I feel a little envious at all the stay-at-home moms, dads, grannies... Sign in to see full entry.

Blogger goes to court to save his family...................................

I told the story last week about how my kids returned to the house permanently. Everyone has been telling me, year after year, that I should have the attorney reverse the child support payments. Now, child support is something that we take real seriously around here. I have never missed a payment.... Sign in to see full entry.

This blogger should be congratulated for survival!.........................

Time to tell all about our change of luck. Caity, nurse's aid student, junior in high school, half time on campus / half time at high school, who lost her Algebra 2 notebook costing her one-tenth of one percent on her final grade for every assignment she doesn't turn in, informed me that she needed...

Blogger finds miracle cure -- it's true!...................................

OK, well it's a year later and I have to report on my early cardio-renal disease. In January of 2004 I had to go get my physical for school. When I did, the doc had me return -- kept my physical papers -- a week later to have my blood pressure checked again. Too high: 158 / 90. Immediately I started... Sign in to see full entry.

Thanks to this special blogger for the memory this morning.................

This is just so freaky I hate even telling it! But I know it is true, and I think I may have mentioned it before once or twice. But M.P.O. has as her signiture quote today that terrific line from "Dead Poets Society" "Make your lives extraordinary, boys." Thank you M.P.O. Thanks for inspiring this...

I guess I've never told the story of how my older daughter returned to live with us. She's a normal kid. Very academic, driven and sees the horizon a lot differently than I ever did at seventeen. I credit her mother. Well, after the 9-11, my younger daughter had been pestering her mother to let her... Sign in to see full entry.

O-M-G! These two bloggers are fighting like cats and dogs................

On Saturday night, after a long day of R & R, my daughter and I went out with my brother. We saw different movies -- she saw something I never heard of, and we saw Harrison Ford in Firewall. Very good movies all around I gather. We went to Perkins at midnight and had breakfast. I saw, again this... Sign in to see full entry.

I'd like to give these female bloggers a big hug..........................

As happens more and more, I get to worrying about my kids. Are they getting into drugs? Are they getting to school on time? Are they ever going to see their mother agian? Then I have to take stock. What are the real fears and what the imagined? What do they actually do every day and night? They go... Sign in to see full entry.

Blogger Uses Counter-Strategy to Counter Strategy Used by Blogger

For M.P.O. who loves the word "blogger" in a title... I lied. I didn't think before doing so, I simply lied and then took responsibility for my actions. Tha's what separates me from most politicians (and regular people). But when asked the innocent question "Have you ever faked a relationship?" I... Sign in to see full entry.
