I do like to eat! But I would never label myself gourmet. Gourmets have a “refined” palate. Only the best for a gourmet. I on the other hand simply like to eat. Ideally good food. But if I am hungry enough, simple food will work for me. And I am always hungry! As a result, I have never […]
FUN! is: Not work – Work may be fun, but fun is not work. Laughter – Any reason to laugh is fun. Laugh for no reason and you have mastered fun! Remembering the child inside – Why do “adults” think fun is a no no? Looking on the bright side – Every moment has its […]
You are making words up again, aren’t you Steve! Me? Never!! Said with fingers crossed of course. Anyhoo, what the heck is ethnocentrism? To put it bluntly, it is cultural snobbery.

Hmmmmmmm. I clearly can’t cooperate. Damn! Desire demands dastardly deeds! I dare not deny desire’s demands … A tortured tongue tries to tell tall tales! When will the willing waste of […]
Well the renowned BLOGGING FROM A TO Z APRIL CHALLENGE 2011 starts very shortly. It seems I am one of over 700 participants. And while this is not a contest to be won, it is still a challenge. At least for me. But before I wander further down this road, let me clear up for my […]
So my sister, the newly awakened master blogger in the making (creator of the renowned Woman Wielding Words and the developing Writing Practice: Perfecting Prose and Poetry), challenged me, a mere novice in the blogging world, to a blogging challenge. I have entered the A to Z Blogging Challenge, which is a true challenge for me in several ways. For one, […]
