Don't know that I can say it any better than this, so have a wonderful Thanksgiving doing whatever makes you happy.
A New Beginning – Thanksgiving Day 2014
For All These Things
I am thankful for the movies. I have not always been the movie junkie I am today. Watching movies on a Sunday afternoon probably got me started on this. Back in the day Sunday afternoons were dedicated to the Sunday Afternoon Movies with Rege Cordic. I remember seeing lots of John Wayne movies. The movies... Continue Reading →
For All These Things
I'm not sure when I started reading but I do not remember a time when I couldn't read. Other than sleeping I have probably spent more time reading than any other activity during my life. I'm not sure there's anything that I've gotten more extended enjoyment out of in my life either. Reading has taken... Continue Reading →

I am truly thankful. For wonderful parents. Jack and Debby. The Captain and the Nurse. How do I even begin to describe these two people?

I am truly thankful. For some 35 years I have had a constant companion, friend, comforter, cheerleader and partner. For many years she has been known as the Lady in My Life or my Lady Wife. I met Donna at the Olde Union Theater at Edinboro State College. Through good times and bad I have... Continue Reading →

I am truly thankful. For being 54 years old. Not that there's anything special about 54. It's just that some people don't make it this far. Folks in my high school and college graduating classes have died already. And let's be honest, I came awfully damn close myself to not getting... Continue Reading →
