    Finally

    Okay. Football season is here. I love college football and am hoping Arizona State University has a good team this year. In professional football there are high hopes for the Arizona Cardinals. I'll be rooting for them but I just wish they had a more mobile quarterback.

    Why is gambling a sin ?

    I love playing slot machines in the casinos. It's fun to drop a twenty, have a free margerita and stand the chance of winning thousands. If you're not taking the babies milk money , what's the Harm ? Especially for us geezers who might not want to go to bible study or play shuffleboard.

    A little tip on frying

    When I fry chicken , fish or shrimp I like to take lays potato chips, pound it into crumbs and combine it with my seasoned flour as the coating. Makes the chicken, fish or shrimp extra crispy and golden brown. Not too many things better than fried shrimp.

    The measure of your loss is the measure of your blessing

    For those who have lost loved ones there is a way to look at the way things are with a sense of gratitude for the shared experience of each other. In the words of Rabbi Wolpe at a time of loss for us, " The measure of your loss is the measure of your blessing ". Puts things in a good perspective.

    Off the grid

    I love those shows about people who have chosen to live the wilderness lifestyle hunting , trapping and fishing. My favorite one is Mountain Men. One thing stands out to me though. Those people will eat any damn thing that moves from mooses to muskrats and anything in between. Nothing is safe...

    Sling that mud.

    Honestly I don't hear any discussions whatsoever from either presidential candidate relative to economic or social issues lately. Just running each other down. This is the level of maturity that will be in charge of our nuclear arsenal? All I can say is, " No, you are"

    Coup D' Atat.

    I was in the third grade in November of 1963. It was strange. Our teacher came back to the classroom after a visit to the office and she was visibly shaken and crying. Our President had been shot we were told and school would be dismissed for the rest of the day. Other than Walter Cronkites...

    Green Chili Burritos Enchilada Style.

    In Phoenix Arizona there was a mexican food restaurant that we all loved by the name of Valle Del Sol Restaurant. They have been closed for several years now but of all the mexican food restaurants in Phoenix and there are several, Valle Del Sol was the best in our opinion. One of thier...

    Spam. Food of the Gods.

    There's nothing better than Spam. If you're making my style of macaroni salad you can replace the chopped ham with chopped Spam. It has a much better flavor. The old standard ham and eggs can be Spam. and eggs. For that matter anything you'd use ham in you should substitute it with SPAM. Now it...

    Greasing the wheel.

    Pretty good show put on by Trump the other night I guess. A few more weeks and we'll get to enjoy Clintons performance. In a world where people think professional wrestling and tent revivalists are real, I guess none of us should be surprised that millions will be taken in by our presidential...

Afew cloves of garlics diced, and put in a huge bowl well mixed. Get some ripe jalepeno and jabenero peppers. Put on the gloves and dice. Add those to the bowl...

    I Love Lucy

    It's 2:21 in the morning and I can't sleep because my leg hurts so I'm watching I Love Lucy and I have a couple comments. Ricky Ricardo was the worst singer on the planet and he should have been ashamed of himself.

    Presidential

    So we have Clinton, Trump and possibly Sanders to realistically choose from for President of The United States. A former First Lady whose integrity is shady at best. A real estate tycoon who slinked his way into the entertainment business. And Sanders who's basically a socialist trying to...

    Catch 22

    One of the things that's hard about getting older is the inevidability of failing health. But it is part of life. If the work you've done was labor intensive then the more likely you'll have problems related to all the heavy lifting and 16 hour days. I have chronic sciatica and arthritis in the...

    Chyna

    I'm lookin at the MSN headlines and read that Joanie "Chyna" Laurer is dead at 45. Didn't know much about the lady other than she was famous from the pro wrestling business. I don't know why it bothers me but it does for some reason. Maybe because she was only 45. I guess there's not much to say...

    Patty Duke

    As you get older the one thing for me that I notice the most is the passing of those who were a part of your life . This little lady of television and movies I really liked. Her performance as Helen Keller in the Miracle worker earned her an academy award. She also played a key role in the movie...

    What would Jesus think ?

    I'll never forget my niece who is no longer with us, wanting to find a good church to go to because she wanted some sort of spirituality in her and her daughters life. We were very close and I miss her a great deal. At any rate she called me and told me she had went to a big church on Cave Creek...
