Why Didn't Anyone Ever Tell Me CRAPS Was So Great?
I don't consider myself a gambler. I don't bet money on football games, I don't bet on the ponies and I very rarely go to a casino. My wife feels that going to a casino is the same as bringing your money into the middle of the street and setting it...
Our Summer Vacation - Without The Kids!
My wife and I have been married for 27 years, but we haven't had a vacation WITHOUT the kids since, well, never! Can I go on record by first admitting that I truly love my children? The boys are 22 and 19 now, so it was time. Time to get away for ...
My First Goodblog Fight!
I just had my first Goodblog sparring contest! Last night, I posted a blog about the criminal justice system (www.goodblogs.com/view-post/justice-is-blind) that I thought was addressing the fact that citizens accused of a crime are sometimes not...
My Plan To Save The All-Star Game
Let's end this nonsense once and for all, shall we? The Baseball All-Star game has become a bore. They tried to make it interesting by having the result "count" as the league that wins the game would claim home field advantage in the World Series this...

BRIDESMAIDS - It Made Me Laugh
Have you seen the movie "Bridesmaids"? Went with my wife tonight at the $6.25 theatre (every Tuesday night, all movies, all day are only $6.25) - not that I'm cheap, mind you. By why not? It's the same theatre you'd pay $12.50 for on a Wednesday or...
Don't Be Nervous - Just Be YOU...
Out of college and looking to land a "real" job? The wise crack remark from everyone you talk to is always the same, sarcastic comment - "Good Luck!". But in reality, luck has nothing to do with it. Employers that have job openings are looking for...
"King Of The World, Master Of The Universe"...
I cried when John Lennon died. I wept when George Harrison passed away. But this was different. I grew up with The E Street Band. The Beatles made great music and had a global impact. The death of these two icons touched me very deeply. But I was...
