I’ve been lolly-gagging and dilly-dallying now for two years since I said I would write my second book, my first novel. I have titled it If Only…, and if you were following my blog way back then, here’s what I said: About the Book If Only… represents my first full-length novel. The bookContinue reading “No Excuses!”

Here Today….
You know the rest. My very last band has exploded, along with my dream of one last bid to play out with a full band and showcase my music. I’m gonna take the heat on this one. I was the only one of the four of us that had an agenda. Hell, these guys wereContinue reading “Here Today….”
Where Did My Appetite Go?
There is irrefutable evidence that I had one; I didn’t get up to 275 pounds at one point by going on the Gandhi diet. No, I earned my stripes honestly. Consider a typical working day of a French Chef (me): 4am Wake up (or stay awake from night before). Do several wake-me-up lines of cocaineContinue reading “Where Did My Appetite Go?”
What Have I Missed?
An English football club just won the insanely-difficult treble; they won the Premier League, the FA Cup, and now, the crowning Champions’ League. At least a Manchester team won, just not my Manchester team. Maybe next year for my Red Devils. I always swear off even looking at the website, but inevitably have to findContinue reading “What Have I Missed?”
I Dare You
These three little words have spelled death for yet another victim, this time an eighteen year-old high school kid celebrating his graduation by taking someone up on a dare and jumping into the dark, shark-infested waters of the Bahamas. Dead. His whole life ahead of him (anyone who is not dead has their whole lifeContinue reading “I Dare You”
Afraid Not
This is a story I wrote based on childhood memories: Amazon Our guide was Tom Blevins, an absolute rock of a man. Forty years old, but his body looked more like it belonged to a man half his age. Not an ounce of visible body fat with huge, muscular arms and a khaki shirt thatContinue reading “Afraid Not”
I’ve Never Done This Before…
but what good is it having an email address if you don’t at least open the mail? I was pleased to see multiple requests to retell my salmon fishing trip to Canada story so right here, as a preface story for the emotion confusion, is my tale. From my book EMOTIONS: Not your Mama’s ABC’s!…Continue reading “I’ve Never Done This Before…”
The Language of Love
Parlez-vous? Nope, not French. German? Too much spitting going on. Italian? My Italian is a little rusty, but it is good enough to know that Papadia translates to day-old pizza, folded in half, and resold in a vain effort to squeeze one more cent or two of profit in a business that has a higherContinue reading “The Language of Love”
Mine’s Bigger Than Yours
Evidently Mr. Penis-envy Ron DiSantis is whipping it out to see how he measures up against Disney and they have responded with lawsuits galore against the Communist state of Florida. I said it awhile back, but Florida can’t afford to get into a pissing match with Disney; it was also me who suggested that oneContinue reading “Mine’s Bigger Than Yours”
Check out my New Song
This is called Lovers and Players and it was just a fun bouncy melody that came to me playing the Bm chord and following it from there. Sometimes when you are putting together a song, you start with a fun melody and build on it. That’s what I did. The boys and I are takingContinue reading “Check out my New Song”
