WAY too close for comfort

At this point in time I have $2 in the Bank and not even a Dollar in my pocket…Fortunately there was a check in the mail addressed to me…I guess my “prayer”–for lack of a better word–worked…And boy am I grateful…Life is Good…on the other hand I’m outta “food stamps” for about a week or […]

not bad considering

the o.m. in Olde Town G-burg went well enuff I guess…better than last week I think…played some Bass for awhile…my friend Lock likes the Cars, the guys we play with apparently aren’t as familiar with them as we are…I just wasn’t in the mood for more “blooze” but they get played a lot at the […]

On Being Galiant with Online Dating
