I originally had a different column for you to read this week—one that you’ll see soon, but not today. Because when you look outside your office window in late March and see more than four inches of snow on the ground, with more falling, well, you just need to comment on it. Really? I mean, […]

As I write this, it’s nearing the end of February, and while I long for spring, there’s something else I could really use right now. A big, honking snowstorm.

For the last couple of months, folks around me have been getting sick. Seems like every time I talked with someone, either they or a family member was sick. Then sick again. And again. And while I’ve thought the thought that I dare not express, the one that would assure me to be a viable […]

So, are you excited about our Ravens being in the Super Bowl? Oh. My. God… I am so excited! I want to see us win—not just because I love the team, but because I think it will be the perfect ending to Ray Lewis’ illustrious career. But I wasn’t always this way. No, my fellow […]

I’m old enough to remember the days when grocery stores consisted of a little corner store where the owner knew your name, customers ran tabs, and the lady behind the counter (the owner’s wife) would throw a candy bar in the bag for me at no charge. Boy, have times changed.

I didn’t think this Riley dog was so bad. In fact, for the first week, I thought I’d gotten me a sweet gig—easy work, and I pay back my “so-called” debt to Elfsociety. But now this mutt is scaring the *^&% out of me. First, he just was knocking over some trash cans. Problem is […]
