This is an update to my post from yesterday. At about 12:11 am, just after the New Year's kisses and hugs were wrapping up, the phone pinged. The "Man Cave Formal, 2017" arrived. Because he posted it on FaceBook, I have no issues with putting it here as my first post of the year 2017. … Continue reading Man Cave Formal, 2017

Looking Forward, 2017
It is once again New Year's Eve. I am ending this year in the same place I began it, along the Herb River in Savannah. It is really the place I want to be because She is here. That is more than enough to make me happy. We all have rituals that go along with … Continue reading Looking Forward, 2017
The Case for Pardoning Hillary Clinton
I am sure this will elicit a backlash from those who want to "Lock Her Up".
