Some of you may have noticed a certain amount of hoarseness in my voice in the past two weeks.

Just a cup of cold water, in charity given, is remembered with joy in the skies. We are all but human, and we all have to die. And, six feet of earth will make us all of one size. Did anybody here see the movie World War Z? Sorry to hear that. Didn’t like it […]

I hid under the sheets, hoping to surprise my daughter when she came upstairs for bedtime, and prayers, and a weird ritual we have sometimes called “lumpy bed” where I pretend not to know that she’s there and pretend to just lay down in bed and then complain that there are so many lumps and […]

I have always envied people who can draw. Or paint, I’ve envied them too, or sketch or sculpt, or pretty much anything else that gives visual representation to an idea.  That’s what it is. That’s what an artist does, they have an idea and the they show it to you, they create a thing that […]
