Life-Part Two
04Apr07
I like to write, but I do so from a different approach.
I sit down in front of my computer (named Darren– a mispelled tribute to Bobby, the cool, hep-cat 60’s crooner, as opposed to Dick York) , turn it on and stare at it as it glares back at me.
This is a daily ritual. I never [...]
Let me begin this particular post with a joke that I think, is most fitting:
A woman was unhappy with the way her laundry was done at the local Chinese Laundry, so she wrote a note and put it in the bag with the next collection of soiled clothes: “USE MORE SOAP ON PANTIES!”
She got her [...]
You know that old saying: “Music hath…. something that soothes the uh…uh.. savage boob or is it the left one…” I don’t remember exactly how it goes, but suffice it to say that music is a such a vital part of life.
Music along with certain smells, can whisk us back in time faster [...]
Hi Kids,
Sorry. The results from your favorite songs lists will have to be postponed for one more night. I’m sorry, but The Laurie has something else to do tonight. I must wait for “him” to call.
And by “him” of course, I mean Jamie Deen…the handsome Georgian hunk and [...]

I am giving you, my readers, something to ponder and write about this weekend.
I want to know your top three (take four if you need it) favorite songs and why they are your favorite songs.
It can be because you liked the beat, the orchestration, the [...]
If people know anything about Meg at all, they’d know she has a fervent, undying love for the University of Texas Longhorns.
More specifically, the football team.
Make no mistake about it, she is a fan.
Devoted.
Rabid.
And will be until the day she dies.
Meg loves college football and [...]
Although I was born and raised in a small South Central Texas town, I never knew all that much about true rurality. Compared to some of the kids I grew up with, I was by all intents and purposes, a “city” girl. I never knew anything about feeding beasts of burden, slopping swine or milking [...]
1. I love walking along the beach on cold, cloudy winter afternoons. I guess I must’ve been a Pilgrim in another life.
2. I love to lunch. Two to three hour lunches with good friends and a few bottles of wine. There is NOTHING like going back to the office with [...]
June is always a difficult time for me.
Father’s Day usually falls on the third Sunday of the month. I dread this particular day. I’ve never had a great relationship with my dad and this Father’s Day will mark almost six years since I last laid eyes on him.
My brother has been insisting [...]
