First off something to hopefully bring a chuckle: SERIOUS STUFF A Facebook friend recently cautioned me about what I post concerning political issues, as it may not help my career to get in the middle of controversial issues. That friend did so in the nicest, most well-meaning way, but I don’t agree that we should hold …
Rich Zahradnik is my Wednesday’s Guest today. He is the author of a mystery series featuring a journalist working in New York in the ’70s. A Black Sail is the latest book, and I reviewed it HERE last Sunday. I forgot to ask Rich what kind of refreshments he might like, but since he and Coleridge, the …
Some of the things I like best about living in a rural setting are the beautiful scenes that are all around me early in the morning and in the evening when the sun is going down. Here in Texas we do have spectacular pink and orange and gold skies at certain times of the day. I love to take pictures, although …

Slim Randles is today’s Wednesday’s Guest with another story from his acclaimed Home Country syndicated columns. Jasper is certainly a fast learner on the computer. It is cooling off just a bit here in Texas – one can feel autumn just hovering in the distance – so lets have some coffee and a bit of …
This may or may not be my last commentary about the political scene, but I will try my best to not rail against the candidates too often. IN RECENT NEWS The Trumster has realized he has to soften his stance on the immigration issue, as well as tone down his racist rhetoric. All that because …
Slim Randles is here again as today’s Wednesday’s Guest with a story that many of us can relate to. At least those of us who are familiar with small town grocery stores where checking out can take a little longer than at a big city move-em-down-the-line kind of mega store. Since it is still so …
