Back to the Garden
As a grade school child my conception of cool included too tight silk shirts and blue jeans with more flair than Liberace. I even had my own polyester jumpsuit. I looked like a cross between Howdy Doody and Elvis, in … Continue reading

The Judge of all the Earth
I have to confess. I’m not saying it was the healthiest thing in the world to do, but boy did I loved doing it. It would be evening, and I’d turn on my television looking for what I artfully called … Continue reading

Bootstrap Folly
