A Distant Memory of Our Boy
Don't go selling yourself short, Nan. You've got a gift (call it "yoga," if you like) and your words have meant a great deal to me.— July 25, 2011 8:38 p.m.
A Distant Memory of Our Boy
Nan, This is a spectacular, beautifully raw piece of writing. I like to think I'm a tough nut, yet... You just shattered my shell. Thank you!— July 25, 2011 7:20 p.m.

Well gosh, thanks! I've been enjoying your blogs as well!— July 8, 2011 6:21 p.m.
Spot on
Thanks very much... I truly appreciate your words and hear them; shows that you care for your fellow human. I do get my skin checked regularly by a dermo and my regular MD and do not take those little buggers lightly.— July 6, 2011 2:52 p.m.

That first one reminds me of Rodney Alan Rippy from the 70's Jumbo Jack ads... "Too big a eat!!!"— July 1, 2011 10:35 a.m.
Bees at the beach.
Dang. I'd been planning to make me a top bar hive this coming weekend. Old grove avocadoes need those little pollenators, and the trees in my backyard haven't produced for years because of the colony colapse disorder (or whatever the hell it's called) and the resultant lack of bees. Your blog inspired me at first, then terrified me. Well done. My neighbors should thank you.— June 30, 2011 7:31 p.m.

What I like is that the school district gave up even trying to grow something there. Thanks for the confession. Any other herbicide to which you wanna admit, homie?— June 30, 2011 9:39 a.m.

Yep, I'm a Montgomery alumnus, too. Were you there when they bused all of the Mira Mesa kids there to Montgomery because the city planned all of that housing to accomodate a billion families but they didn't think that schools might be needed? We rode our bikes the three miles or so to junior high, and one year there was no daylight savings time for some reason. We had to buy generator-driven bike lights and get there through the Navy housing in the pre-dawn pitch-blackness.— June 29, 2011 8:10 p.m.

Yes! McDonalds' giant slide! I bore the hell out of my son every year telling him about that slide and how much better it was than the ones are at the Fair. Maybe it was my kid memory, but wasn't it, like, ten or more lanes wide, and you could get airborne on the second bump?— June 29, 2011 7:57 p.m.

Certainly you must understand the allure of 10-cent Icees?— June 28, 2011 1:28 p.m.
