  • Are We Not Entertained?

    So, there’s a baseball player named Manny Ramirez. It seems he is the latest to have fallen to a steroid scandal. Or, technically, if you read the article, an anti-steroid-side-effect-drug scandal. I remember when it became evident Mark McGwire had used steroids. The debate around town here in Saint Louis was, “Well, what would you…

  • The Anti-Mother’s Day Post

    I keep my mouth shut about mothers most of the time, because I’ve never had the urge to be a mother. But, on this one day, I am full up with hearing about Great Moms. Let’s talk for a minute about Crappy Moms. Just for a minute. I know, I know, I’m not a mom;…

  • You Can Find Me Buried Under the Weeds

    I find I become confused if I try to garden when it’s over eighty degrees. Gary watches me carefully to be sure I don’t develop what we call the White Ring of Death – my whole face gets bright red except for a minstrel ring of white around my lips. This weekend would have been…
