Visit Kennesaw My dad was a crazy old codger. He was opinionated, superstitious and downright strange. Somehow even with all this he managed to marry a young girl after he had become quite old. He had some of the strangest ideas I ever heard. He believed that once you were dead, you were dead. There was no reason to spend good money on a funeral … Continue reading At Last I Can Afford To Die
Visit Kennesaw We moved to Miami two years ago and are still being welcomed quite often. Most welcomes are uttered sarcastically. We are trying to rent a new apartment, but most of the ads online seem too good to be true. There are houses and apartments with everything you might want and need. The only problem is, they all belonged to little old missionary ladies … Continue reading Welcome To Miami
Kennesaw I had a dog once that like babies was so ugly it was cute. Its head, legs and feet grew, but somehow the rest of it could never catch up. His name was Bilbo Baggins, and by six months he looked like a stick drawing of a dog with the head of an elephant. All dogs that grow up in the south have several … Continue reading Zen Doggie

Visit Kennesaw The Greeks had it going on. They were kicking ass and taking names, but the names they were taking might have ultimately led to their demise.

See what I mean, by the time you learned Greek history or more aptly the names involved … Continue reading Greek Of The Week
Visit Kennesaw Kennesaw Remember when you could buy a $500 dollar car and drive it forever? Ok so this is a redneck thing, but if you’ve never done it, it’s because you’re not capable of doing it. Many such cars were more like one dollar cars wrapped around a $499 dollar stereo. Today you would have a $499 dollar license plate pushing a one dollar … Continue reading A $500 Dollar Car

I remember my step dad telling me I would never live to see the year 2000. Sorry if this offends you, but I did and he didn’t and I’m glad, you’d have had to be there. While that prediction was a dire one and ultimately untrue, there are others I was kind of looking forward to. What happened to those flying cars of the future? … Continue reading The Future Is Too Dog Gone Slow
The Do Nots Of Doing It Kennesaw That title will make a bunch of people mad. Always remember, that in America, nothing is wrong unless you get caught doing it. That cigarette you’re smoking is made better if your parents don’t know you smoke and later if your wife, the preacher or any member of your church, don’t catch you smoking it. Moonshine lasted far … Continue reading The Do Nots Of Doing It
