Tom Turkey Dead

On Friday afternoon I spotted a huge tom turkey roaming around the property outside my office window. He was at least a 30-pound bird with gorgeous feathers including a beautiful plume of tail feathers that he kept fanning out as he pecked at the ground. Just a wonderful creature.

This morning, when I arrived at […]

Day Off

It has been a glorious day!! Not just because the weather was nice but because I didn’t have to go anywhere all day. My pastor agreed to run the power point for me at the Saturday service, no one wanted to go to the movies today and I didn’t need anything at the store. I […]

Oil Slick

Saying that the oil slick in the Gulf of Mexico is a major problem is an under statement. Actually it is a HUGE under statement. I could try to write about how bad it really is but my brother, Ted, sent me a link last night that describes the situation so much better than anything […]

Mammogram

I went in for my yearly mammogram today. A necessary evil. Actually it isn’t so bad. I think of the top three undignified procedures we have to go through in order to prevent disease, it ranks number three.

The top procedure would be a colonoscopy. I haven’t had one yet but I’m sure it is […]

Movies

I saw two movies over the weekend and thought I would do a mini-review of each.

On Friday night, I saw The Backup Plan starring Jennifer Lopez. It was ok. It would be a great movie to see on DVD. Definitely a chick flick so I can see why a lot of the guys I […]

I started writing this blog in May of 2009, one year ago. My first posting was on May 19th. That first one wasn’t much but it took me a while to figure out what I was going to write. It seems like many blogs have a focus. There are blogs about sports, crafts, cooking, motherhood, […]

Ernie Harwell

Ernie Harwell died yesterday. For those who don’t know, he was the broadcaster for the Detroit Tigers for 42 years. He didn’t just call the games for the radio but he was the Voice of the Tigers.

My brother, David, wrote a really nice piece on Ernie’s passing for his blog and what he wrote […]

Check Your Work

There is someone in the Saco/Biddeford area that is in charge of writing on pavement and really needs someone to check his or her work. You know the signs that they paint on the pavement – Turn Here, Stop, Thank you, etc.? Well, at first I thought this was just a one time mistake. But […]

News Comments

Here are just a few comments on items that have been in the news recently:

– About the mother who ran off with another guy thus abandoning her husband and baby – she staged it as a possible abduction because it was against her religious beliefs to leave her husband. But it wasn’t against her […]

May Day

Today is May Day!!

For a lot of the world that means that today is their Labor Day. There are also many other reasons to celebrate around the world from ancient pagan celebrations to giving baskets of flowers and treats to someone you care about. In Kennebunk, ME, it is a day to have a […]
