Ghost Story

One of the reasons I loved my Air Force assignment in England was because my home was a wonderful place. I was very happy in this house and was sad when I had to leave it. The house was located two houses away from the town center. The town center was marked by a roundabout … More Ghost Story

Good Buy

When I lived in England I attended antique auctions from time to time. At one of these auctions, there was a 19th century wheel chair that came up for sale (in much better shape than the one pictured). It was cooler than it sounds. It was a straight back large oak chair on wheels. The … More Good Buy

Hide Your Thong

My Mom gave my two sisters and me advice on wearing white clothing – especially trousers.  She told us when we were shopping that we should always put our hand inside white clothing – if you could see your hand – the garment is too transparent and your modesty could be compromised.  Today I saw … More Hide Your Thong

Psychosis

Because my sanity is often in question, I believe I’m a pretty good judge of how crazy other people are.  I had an incident several years ago where I found I still had a lot to learn about levels of mental health.  When traveling alone on business I didn’t like to eat in nice restaurants … More Psychosis

Mister Inappropriate

Ed and I went on a Danube River Cruise several years ago.  The day before the cruise started we met three other couples at the hotel suggested by the cruise line.  We immediately bonded and the eight of us socialized and stuck together for the next week.  At the end of the week, the most … More Mister Inappropriate
