What’s New in the ‘Hood

Since the manufactured home park where I lived for nearly four years is just across the road from where I swim these days, I drive through it occasionally to see what’s going on. On my last trip, a couple of days ago, I noted a number of new double-wides that have been set up on spots that were previously… click here to continue

Big and Small News/Rumors

Yesterday I read in a blog somewhere an article allegedly written by a Russian journalist claiming Russian military has intercepted U.S. military classified information on a plan to attack Iran on April 6th.

Viva the Internet

We writers complain a lot because we don’t get published, or if we do, we don’t make enough money. I groan when I see the prices on paintings and compare them with sale prices of poetry books.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day

St. Patrick’s day is here and a little green is beginning to show on some of the naked tree branches. The blossoming trees are sensational in pink, yellow and white.
