This past Wednesday, April 15, was the day every person in America was to pay their taxes. While Joe six-pack probably got his in on time, some of the richest people and corporations didn’t pay their fair share. That’s because every year, corporations like General Electric, Boeing, and Verizon dodge billions of dollars in taxes …
Thank goodness for my friend, Slim Randles, who is always willing to be my Wednesday’s Guest, even at the last minute. My week got off to a late start as I returned home from a trip to Austin late on Monday. Then I picked right back up with an editing job and almost forgot to …
My plan was to research a woman to feature on the blog today and get a post pre-scheduled, since I was out of town all weekend. You know what too often happens to plans, and this one was blown apart cause I was sick all day Thursday, and just barely able to get packed and …
I’m heading to Austin this weekend to celebrate D.E.A.R. Texas day. All across the state authors and readers are coming together on April 12 to celebrate books and stories. The event is spear-headed by the Texas Association of Authors and winners of their “Best Of” contest for 2015 will be featured. I will be at …
Our friend, Slim Randles is once again the Wednesday’s Guest. He sure has some interesting people in that fictitious place that houses the Mule Barn Truck Stop where the guys get good coffee and have good times. Today he introduces us to some new folks and I won’t even begin to pronounce their last name. …
Even though the past weekend was a holiday, it was a rather quiet two days for me. No company for Easter, and it was cold and wet here in East Texas. I felt bad for all the families that were trying to do the usual Easter traditions like egg hunts and Easter parades. It was …
Please help me welcome John Rachel as today’s Wednesday’s Guest. He is the author of the novel, The Man Who Loved Too Much that I reviewed here last Sunday. We certainly had fun with the interview, so grab a beverage of your choice to go with your cinnamon roll, and enjoy…. Hello, John, I’m so …
It was a wild and busy weekend with activities every day. Friday was a performance of “The Underpants” at the Main Street Theatre in Sulphur Springs, TX. At the Winnsboro Center for the Arts I enjoyed the Starry Starry Night fundraiser, with a wonderful dinner, lots of good cheer, and a great art auction. Sunday …
It was a beautiful week here in East Texas. The sun was out for four days in a row. A record, as we have had weeks and weeks of gray skies and lots of rain. The good news is that we are no longer in a drought. The bad news is that it has been …
Slim Randles is here as Wednesday’s Guest, sharing a story about “Windy” Wilson. Windy isn’t one of the regulars down at the Mule Barn Truck Stop, but when he comes by, it’s always an interesting encounter. He likes to talk real big like to impress folks, but he doesn’t quite get the words right. Still, …
