And Then She Came ... UGH!

What you see is the expression on my face of exasperation upon learning that my fellow packsters were going to invite a stranger into OUR pack! I just could not wrap my mind around why our happy home would need another dog ... and all I could think was, "oh woof is me!"

So, here I was as happy as any four legged family member could be and Pop and Mom…

Better Than This

It's Wednesday night

He's out at the bar with the guys

Instead of being at home

Tucking his little girl in

Reading her Green Eggs & Ham

 

A little voice tries to speak to him

He hears it…

Not Yet, But Perhaps One Day

The way that I feel when I am with you

Takes my breath away

I still get so nervous when you're so close

Like a girl who has yet to experience her first kiss

It's such an intense thing

 

When you're not here

I find that I…

Fluffers

One Halloween, my gorgeous, outrageous and tremendous niece had a very original costume idea.  She dressed as a fluffer.  Don’t know what a fluffer is?  Here’s Wikipedia’s definition:

A fluffer is a hired member of the crew of a pornographic movie whose role on the set is to sexually arouse the male participants prior to the filming of scenes requiring erections. The term was also extended to include female…

Eddie's Attic July 7, 2012

I really should be doing laundry and getting ready to go to the Woody Guthrie Folk Festival in two days.  However, Saturday’s show at Eddie’s Attic deserves a few words. 

Peyton Tochterman opened the evening with a fabulous set.  I have enjoyed his music in the past, but I think this set was my favorite yet.   Last year at Woodyfest, his was the only CD I purchased (I had said I wasn’t going to buy any, but such is the life of a music junkie).  His stories were both funny and moving. …

The Senator and the Banker

'The Senator and the Banker'

copyright 2012 by Richard Reiley

The Senator asked the Banker some really tough questions

Like how are your children? How was your day?

While every one else looked the other way

He wasn't sworn under oath to tell the truth

An Extraordinary Triumph for Science

On July 4, two teams of researchers from CERN, Europe's center for particle physics research, made an extraordinary announcement, reporting the discovery of a new particle that appeared to match the profile of the long-sought Higgs boson.  One team, using the CMS detector, announced the discovery of a particle with a mass of 125 GeV (giga-electron volts), and the other, using the ATLAS detector, reported a mass of 126 GeV.  In tandem, they had found impressive evidence for a major…
