Art Show (MM #3734)

Back in my school days, my least favorite class was art appreciation. I had to take it in both high school and college, and I hated it. And if you’d told me that when I was older, I’d look forward to attending an art show, I would have laughed. Of course, tonight, you know what…

Fridays (MM #3726)

The other night, I stumbled upon a program that I watched back in my younger days called Fridays. Many thought the show was a rip-off of Saturday Night Live. But, looking back, I have quickly realized that the show wasn’t as funny as I once thought…

Slurpee (MM #3693)

Back in my younger days, I used to go to 7-Eleven all of the time. Usually, my visits were for a microwave burrito, a Big Gulp, or of course, a Slurpee. I haven’t been to a 7-Eleven in years. They weren’t anywhere near where I lived. That was until recently when they return to Nashville….

Cheap Meal (MM #3690)

When I was a poor starving disc jockey, I was often in search of a cheap meal. In my younger days, fast food joints and buffet restaurants were often the only options I could afford. They helped make me who I am today, both good and bad. But, the times they are a-changing…

Less Interested (MM #3639)

As a youngster, I was a huge sports fan. I lived for sports of all kinds. But as I got older, I started paying less attention. Now, I’m less interested than ever, and I honestly don’t know why…

Roquefort Dressing (MM #3615)

I saw someone online mention Roquefort dressing the other day, and that got me thinking. While blue cheese dressing is found everywhere, I haven’t seen Roquefort in years. So what happened? I’m betting that this is all about marketing…

Sleeping (MM #3497)

Let’s face it. I’ve been able to master a few things in my years on this earth. But sadly, one thing that I should have mastered by now, is sleeping. And while I’ve been working at it since the day I was born, it’s like my golf same, I still haven’t mastered it…

Socks And Underwear (MM #3496)

I’ve never minded shopping, but there is truly one thing I hate shopping for; socks and underwear. As a child it was truly one of the worst shopping trips. And to be quite honest, I pretty much feel the same way, today…
