Professional Wrestling (MM #3777)

Like many people, I grew up watching professional wrestling on TV. But, as I got older, I didn’t keep up. But recently, I found out the I could watch classic matches from the 1980s on Peacock. So, of course, I’m currently traveling down memory lane…

Little Squirrels (MM #3735)

I was never one of those kids that always looking for bugs, snakes, or wild animals. Sure, I played in the grass and the dirt, but you could usually find me on the playground. One of my nephews loves searching for critters. And recently, he’s been trying to trap a chipmunk. But all he seems…

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…

Pay The Price (MM #3666) 

When you’re in your teens, you never worry about the future. Adulthood is just a vague concept. But as we learn, you always pay the price at some point. When I was a teen, I did whatever I needed to be a better basketball player. I never worried about the outcome later in life…

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…
