I have a friend; we’ll just call him Joseph. He isn’t very old; but I am old and don’t act like it, so who’s to judge? Neither of us claim maturity or better than average driving skills.

Several of you get uncomfortable when I talk about showering, but really, I get some of my best ideas when I am in the shower.
So there I am, all lathered up and exfoliating my body in the shower all by myself. I haven’t enjoyed exfoliating like this in some time.

I read the headline of the Terri Winder article, “No Cussing Week a Great Idea”. Of course my first thought was, DANG! “Oh, yeah, get real! A week?”
But, I like the idea, although I know a few homes that would be pretty darn quiet; maybe an occasional “the” or an infrequent “and” but...
How do you know if you married a teacher? Teachers are teachers because they can’t help it. It certainly isn’t the pay, prestige, and well behaved children we send them.
The other day, my wife had her students write about their families. First, you will be glad to know, one of the...

Some time back, I asked people things they are thankful for. The list of things is as diverse as those who took the time to tell me or write to me.
