In honor of Father’s Day, I thought it would be appropriate to talk about kissing. After all, everyone knows part of fatherhood (the attracting of the mother part, to be precise) involves romance, and romance involves kissing. But not all kisses are created equal. No indeed. There’s an art to accomplishing the perfect kiss. And […]
George has been gone for two weeks, but his fragrance still lingers. And I’m not talking Old Spice. Click here to see what I mean.

A couple of months ago I received a call from my friend, Jana, asking if I’d be willing to read a children’s train story for an event today at the Marshall Depot. She wanted to schedule “local personalities” to read a story every hour on the hour in an effort to encourage families to visit

After more than a month’s absence from this journal, I’m sure the question on everybody’s mind is, “What did you have for dinner?” Well, since you’re asking, I’ll tell you. As a matter of fact, it really was quite a satisfying meal for several reasons. First of all, George is in Africa with Luke right

Today I took my camera to Kroger to photograph some fruit and vegetables for Thursday’s Master’s Artist post. I wasn’t sure what kind of reaction I would get from employees, but the produce manager said he was honored. I can see why. His department is a work of art. I’ve written about my love affair
“I’m so dizzy, my head is spinning. Like a whirlpool, it never ends . . .” Remember that old Tommy Roe song? Yeah, well, that’s been my theme song for almost a week now. I guess my allergies took the whole “party in my head” thing literally and decided to host a hoedown in my
