Beach Baby
Good Lord! I have that image and quotation from Poop-Sky on a metal license plate hanging in my front window. Are you stal... Oh, never mind! ;?) My gal reads these things from time to time, so I thought of deleting this one altogether. Won't, though. It's really just an honest statement of how much I don't want to mess things up but am sometimes tempted to find a little something to hedge my bets and tide me over...— April 18, 2012 11:46 p.m.

Just discovered the "Reply" function. I enjoyed Peter Tork's article. To paraphrase one of Davy Jones' non-hits, though an enjoyable song just the same: Thank you, dude, for making a better world for us.— March 16, 2012 10:22 a.m.

There! Happy now, Mr. Fikes? Actually, the revised wording gives the sentence a better rhythm anyway. Thanks for the input.— March 15, 2012 8:39 p.m.

Florida is considered tropical. Hawaii, technically, is not. I did think of that factoid while writing the piece, and might change the wording if it confuses people.— March 15, 2012 8:32 p.m.
His Little Brother of France
The Rain Dance, Soundsville, The Blue Star... All are superior stories to this one, IMO, and having written them all I'm entitled to it. It's nice to win 1st place though. Thanks for the kind comments, especially from Nan, my One-Woman Fan Club.— February 16, 2012 10:19 p.m.
Hello from the Red Not Chili Peppers!
I enjoy your music reviews, Dave; most of them anyway. If you're interested in some stories about the old days, check out the kstaff blog.— October 1, 2011 10:10 a.m.
Every Story Needs a Title
This started out somewhat mysogenistic (spelling?), but evolved into a message of "malice toward none," if not charity for all. Whether anyone else likes it or not, I do, and writing it was therapeutic.— September 28, 2011 9:15 a.m.
It Can Still Happen
She'll be married next month, to someone else. Seems it's my fate to fall for attractive but spinster-like women who suddenly find the love of their lives after rejecting me. A miserable purpose to have in life, if that is what I was put here for.— November 8, 2010 8:27 a.m.
Cowles Mountain Night Hike
The Mesa Trail to the top of Cowles Mountain is quite a workout. I approach it from the Lake Murray Blvd dead end. The last quarter mile is murder on a hot day. Never thought of climbing it at night; just figured it's off limits after sundown.— October 8, 2010 4:20 p.m.

With all due respect... THIS won first place???!!!— July 22, 2010 4:52 p.m.
