Picture This – #SoCS
It’s Saturday and with any luck, Cheryl will be back behind the bar as we enjoy an adult beverage, some light conversation and try to accommodate Linda G. Hill’s fun Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt. This week, Linda has given us: “Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is ‘loud.’ Find any word that... Continue Reading →
No Baseball Talk! – #SoCS
The usual suspects have gathered at the No Facilities bar, but Linda G. Hill has given us quite the challenge with her Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt: “Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is ‘astronomical.’ Use it any way you like.

Enjoy!” She’s kidding, right? If we were having... Continue Reading →

I wrote about the Yardgoats honoring Roberto Clemente, last year for #WATWB. I suppose I could have reprised that subject for Friday’s #WATWB... Continue Reading →
Listen, Sonny – #1LinerWeds
The title is how I wanted to start my reply to this week’s One-liner Wednesday. As you will see in a minute, I was nice. This story begins last Wednesday, on a day that I had been looking forward to for over a month. The company I work for held an employee outing at Dunkin... Continue Reading →
Abandoned Ideas
One problem with keeping track of ideas is that the ones that never come to fruition hang around to remind me that they were bad ideas. They weren’t all bad ideas, some were just victims of bad timing. Others were mistakes I made while having the idea and others are ideas that used to live... Continue Reading →
