I have a confession to make. I am addicted to playing golf. It’s not because I am good at it, but every time I finish a round, I truly believe that the next time, I will play better. Unfortunately, I have been playing golf since I was a teen, and I‘m not getting better, justContinue reading “With Friends Like This…”

I’m Not Paranoid, They Are Watching Me
As I said before, there will be some “Summer Reruns” of my columns. I’m sure none of you can remember back far enough to have read this selection because I know the age of most of my readers, and they can’t remember what they had for breakfast. I will take a guess at what youContinue reading “I’m Not Paranoid, They Are Watching Me”
Death Watch
A popular device in the world of writing, literary and screenwriting, is to kill off a beloved character regularly. Some of the great authors and screenwriters have done it. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle brutally eliminated his iconic detective Sherlock Holmes in “The Final Problem.” Apparently, Doyle felt his most famous creation distracted from other thingsContinue reading “Death Watch”
Redmodel Upheaval
I’ve been busy here at the beginning of the summer and haven’t been able to get to writing this blog. So, like so many of your favorite television shows, I will be using “reruns” to fill this spot. Hopefully, I’m going back far enough so you won’t recognize the earlier work. Now off to theContinue reading “Redmodel Upheaval”
Child’s Play
Hey, over here. I’m hiding in the closet. Why am I hiding in the closet? I’ll tell you why. My wife talked me into streaming the Harry Potter movie series based on the beloved children’s books written by J.K. Rowling. OMG, these are children’s stories? Just last year, I finally was able to sleep withoutContinue reading “Child’s Play”
Milking It For All Its Worth
When I grew up, that would be in the dark ages for you folks born after 1965, we would told drinking a big glass of milk would be good for us. Those might have been the same doctors that were pushing Camel cigarettes as good for your lungs. For me, a cold glass of milkContinue reading “Milking It For All Its Worth”
It’s About Time
Sorry for not posting a blog last week. I couldn’t find the time to do it and spent hours looking everywhere for it. It seems that I’m obsessed with time. My father used to tell me that if I was five minutes early, I was 10 minutes late. I’m an Olympic-class clock watcher. While timeContinue reading “It’s About Time”
I’m not a doctor, I just play one in my mind
Medical stuff is serious business. If the doctor screws up, patients could end up in a coma, disfigured, dead, or lips the size of a bicycle inter tube. I’ve seen it where some people go to a doctor and come out with duck bills instead of lips. I guess beauty at any cost. Some ofContinue reading “I’m not a doctor, I just play one in my mind”
Math Wiz
To say that I am not very good at math is an understatement. It’s like saying Vanilla Ice is a terrible rap artist, Fruit Cake is an affront to humanity, and the Chicago Bears are a black hole for quarterbacks. I am one of those high school students who asked, “Why do I need toContinue reading “Math Wiz”
Get A Grip
My wife and I met ten years ago. We set our first date, and I would drive to the area where she lived and meet at a coffee shop. We didn’t meet at her house because, according to her, I had to pass the boogie man test. One Saturday in February, I drove a prettyContinue reading “Get A Grip”
