My first wife, Carol, who was my college girlfriend, is from Rochester, actually an eastern suburb - Penfield. I did my first year of grad school at RIT in Rochester and worked part time for a design firm downtown.
Whiskey and booze sales must have gone through the roof.
Luv ya, Bugg!
It is always nice to be home again. BTW: "Bluegrass" is a myth. But it does exist in musical terminology.
Wonderful! Truth sometimes wins.
Jim: My heart has been with you through this. Thanks for sharing with us. It must help with your healing.
Putting this book together was more difficult than writing my novels. Way more difficult.
This year I felt quite apologetic. I was called a "food stamp parasite," but I don't use food stamps. I was called a "liberal socialist," but I am a registered Democrat and am quite conservative when I handle my checkbook. I was called many things that I am not. One of those things was voiced on the networks by a Tea party wonk who said that Social Securitymeant that I was sucking off the government tit. That made me feel so depressed because for decades I was made to believe my FICA tax was paying for my own Social Security. Oh my! Maybe I should take the Republican advice, run over to Cabelas and purchase a gun and a box of ammo and end it all. Wait! Can you only purchase one round of ammo? I don't want to use more than one. The aftermath of this election is nearly as bad as the campaign. Good post.
I loved that territory! One night I drove east through central Utah and that tall, sharp hogback ridge in front of me was visible in moonlight and it actually made the hair stand up on my head!
Yeah. Don't gloat (too much.)
1. Wondering if I should even get a Christmas tree this year, with these three little terrorist kittens in the house. They wrecked my table lamp trying to play with the pull chain. They constantly tip over chairs. They wiped off a whole shelf of ceramic things. A tree would be too much for them, I think. If I don't do a tree it will be the first time in my adult life. 2. I hear a lot about 'fiscal cliffs.' I was shoved off of a fiscal cliff ten years ago and still have not hit the bottom.
