It seems to me that the best “sign” that an able-minded person can receive from God is the simple fact that God saw fit to endow you with a working brain. If you are of rational mind and reasonable intelligence, I don’t think it’s necessary to try and find “signs” that you are doing the [...]
Shameless plug time:
The Barbershop Harmony Society International Convention will be held right here in Music City USA this July 1-5. There are three competitions that are held for the title of International Champion: Quartet, Chorus, College Quartet.
My dear father-in-law will be competing in the chorus competition which will feature 28 choruses from across [...]
Yes, Arthur, originally created by Marc Brown as a book series and now a popular children’s television program on PBS. Here’s how it happened. I’m sitting in the living room with GMan sipping my coffee and trying to wake-up (I’ve a bit of allergy/head cold thing going on). GMan’s watching Arthur and today’s episode is [...]
First, I’ll address some of the answers that were said about me. Tanya & Lisa not only got my middle name right but they spelled it correctly, too! (I can’t even spell right sometimes!) Tanya was the only one to get my eye color right. Sheryl & Brenda both hit the nail on the head [...]
My friend Erin sent this to me in an e-mail. I thought I’d try it in blog format. Not sure if it’ll fly or not but I’ve got nothing else to say today! So, in the comments, answer these questions as best you can about me. If you comment, I’ll respond back and answer the [...]

they were all the same
“Eaten by the worms
bewitched infested blighted
what could have done this
I must have my leaf
what injustice befalls me
today in my wood”
The whole forest moaned
“you demand of us our fruit
our root seed and wood
Reap without sowing

We are seasoned symphony attenders. And when you get into the habit of going to performances such as these, you can start to get a little, um, uppity about some things. There are several faux pas that can be made during a performance such as talking, not using cough drops or water to keep a [...]
Awhile back I let my contact lens prescription slip. I had already way overused my monthly wear contacts and it was too early to return to the optometrist for an annual exam (plus, I couldn’t bear to have him lecture me on my improper use and wear of my contacts), so….I just wore my glasses. [...]
I’m such a sucker for trends. I don’t want to be. I try to stay “above” that sort of thing but…I mean look at me! I jump on bandwagons like there’s no tomorrow. I started blogging because I was curious about what it was all about and I knew other people were blogging. I signed [...]
Overhead in the locker room at the YMCA today:
“I so want this job. I need money!” she said “I can’t keep asking my parents for money. My dad hasn’t had any gigs in awhile. Everyone’s off payroll until, like, April 19th”
“I know what you mean” her friend replied. “Hey, how many songs has your dad [...]
