I Am a GrinchLast Christmas, Uncle Albert promised his neighbor, Wilson, to
find a way to keep the Christmas spirit alive all year. You
know, just like Wilson and everybody else wishes people each
year.
Yesterday I was checking my calendar. "Holy smokes! It's almost
Christmas. I better check to see if Uncle Albert found a way to
keep the Christmas spirit alive all year."
So I put on my boots and buttoned up my jacket. I dashed out the
door.
I came back into the house to put on a scarf. And some gloves.
And ...

Vincent Price's Ultimate Horror!Vincent Price was always of two minds about his horror movie
career. On the one hand it was a way for an actor to age and
keep working. But the gourmet cook and art collector often felt
that these films were beneath him.
Always looking for extra publicity the Saint Louis born thespian
pulled many stunts to get attention for his films. One time he
went to the Hollywood Wax museum and disguised himself as his
wax dummy likeness. Standing motionless with a hypodermic
syringe he would wait ...

The Hazards of Tossing PigsThe Hazards of Tossing Pigs
Saturday, both Jane and Barb had to work. I didn?t see either of
them during the day but Saturday night I went to eat at the
restaurant they work in. They serve two kinda steaks there. One
called the Cowgirl, and one called the Cowboy. On my first visit
some months ago I had loudly pronounced "I wanna eat a Cowgirl!"
When Jane asked how I wanted it, I loudly replied "Why, pink in
the middle of course!"
Weeeeell...... this time Jane recommended the Cowboy. I ...

Friends -- With BenefitsWe've all been there. That long, seemingly endless drought
during which time you get no play. No action. No sweet lovin'.
The dating life is mediocre, and you've got no prospects. But as
we've proven time and time again, we're a resourceful bunch.
Many take matters into their own hands. In the Appalachians,
many fall into the arms of a sexy sibling. But there's a number
of us that decide to try' 'Friends with benefits.'
Yeah, that old song. You start workin' your mojo on your
friends. And try ...

my children and I building these luscious goodies sure to bless

Ah!! Monsoon Season'As dark gray clouds gather in the sky, it reminds me of eternal
gifts that our Mother Nature has presented to us.'
Truly, nature has her own subtle way of expressing love and
affection to us. During monsoon season, when tiny rain droplets
fall to the ground, the sky gives an impression of an estranged
mother who is shedding tears in joy on meeting her beloved
children. Though, it seems like a philosophical illusion, yet
portrays the kindness that nature has showered on us by creating
monsoon ...

Seeing things differently - an invitationI was walking back home with my dog (he still eats the
newspapers by the way) this weekend and re-emerging from the
woods on the hill that over looks the valley I live in, I
stopped, and took the time to stand and stare.
Below me was the village, nestled deep in a cleft. The
surrounding hills were lavishly adorned with sprawling
woodlands, skirting and dividing the many farm fields in which
the wheat was beginning to ripen, the hedgerows subdividing
these further. The sky was a cloudless blue ...

How To Write and Produce a Song
Writing and producing a song is part art, part science and part kismet. As a producer/songwriter I have been working at my craft for many years. However, there are techniques that can be explained to the novice that might explain the process a bit more simply, and turn a process that at first glance might appear mystical and esoteric, into something more understandable.
When I sat down to write my song 'Paris, Only You', I had a general idea that I wanted to convey. There were ...
