  • Pool Update

    The pool is in fine shape even if the owner is not. After a week of vacuuming, skimming and back washing. The pool is now cold and swim able. Now I need to spend as much time getting myself back into shape and all will be well. And yes Walter, that is a Stella in…

  • Just driving along

    When I was a teenager my father used to hate all the bumper stickers on my car(s).  He would always say it looks like a rolling French Whore House.  How he knew that I don’t know,  as I don’t think he ever went to France. Now I look at bumper stickers with amusement. Who are…

  • Time to trim the bush!

    The pain of moving is having to find new people and places for all your services. New grocery store, new lawn care, new hair care, new vet and also new groomer. Well I knew we waited too long to find a new groomer when my son said Molly looked like a bush.  I thought she…

  • Socialism is not the answer

    I saw this sign on way to work today. At least they remembered to take down their McCain/Palin sign unlike some of my other neighbors.

  • Time to clean the pool!

    Winter caught me by surprise last year and the pool pump paid the price. Being used to the pool in Florida there was no such thing as winterizing. I knew I had to do it but the first frost of the year hit early and hard. It ended up freezing and killing the pump. I…

  • They killed Mr. Cost Plus

    A sign of the times? Or storm damage? They killed Mr. Cost Plus! As I  have driven around the country over the last few months I have noticed a disturbing number of empty car dealerships. A definite sign of the economic times we are living in. The dealership where I bought Laila’s car in Ringgold…

  • Drought is over!

    North Georgia has been under a drought for the last few years. I’m calling it officially over with the torrential downpours we’ve had recently. Last Friday  Laila called me from the bathroom closet because of a storm. I thought she was over reacting, until I got home, even though the tornado sirens had gone off…

  • Presidential Apprentice

    You know after my posting last night I remembered I am more comical than political. I think I missed the point. During the drive to the Birmingham Alabama airport I had a lot of time to think. And now as I am sitting here I have time to post. By the way what the hell…

  • Don’t we have a government to run?

    As I was surfing this evening I came upon this opinion  letter from Michael Moore of documentary fame.

  • Homeward Bound

    It has been too long, so I am heading to Sugar Land to see the folks and check in before I lose my favored son status. Its funny how much has changed in my life since I left in 1993.  Two kids, two marriages, too many pets,  jobs and homes to mention in a short…
