Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, "You're

About Me

"Be of good cheer. You have often asked yourself whether there is something above and beyond your present routine life. There is. Just as the wind is not meant for enclosure in a room, neither are you meant for confinement within your thoughts and feelings. True living is just as free as the wind." -- Vernon Howard
| View Show | Create Your Own ----------------------------------------------------------- Here are the basics: I was born and raised in Las Vegas, but lived a good majority of my life in Pensacola before I went to college at Bama, then moved to the good ol' salty Ham. My parents are still down in Pensacola, though, so I go down there almost every chance I get for a little fun in ths sun. I adore the beach, but my one true passion is FISHING!!! I caught my first fish when I was three years old, then from the age of seven until I was a teen, we'd go deep-sea fishing every summer in either Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, or Marathon Key, FL. It's been in my blood ever since. The rest of my life involves taking things one day at a time and living life to the fullest! Is there really anything more to say? That's what blogs are for. And oh yeah... ROLL TIDE!!!!

And he sent unto them a new coach, whose name was called Saban. And victory followed with him.

Just when you think you know someone (Lost edition!)

So I was looking through old emails of mine when I came across a response to a bulletin I posted last December.  I reread my bulletin and laughed out loud.  It's so pathetic I can't believe ...
