Out & About With The Alphabet Boys – Part 2

Short Stories From 10 Years Ago – November 16, 2004 – I’m still in the planning stages of my WebSite re-design and the addition of my second site. I’m obviously not going to get the project done this year, as I’d hoped, but I have a good start on the undertaking.

Aha – One Of Those Moments

Short Stories From 10 Years Ago – November 14, 2004 – In my on-going attempt to lose weight, I’ve focussed on cutting out all the things that I thought weren’t good for me.

Another Chat With Scrummie

Short Stories From 10 Years Ago – November 13, 2004 – Well – here it is another Saturday night, and I’m happy to be home! I have no plans.

Ziggy’s View Of The World

Short Stories From 10 Years Ago – November 12, 2004 – Even if Ziggy wasn’t my cat, or to be politically correct, if he didn’t live with me, and I just met him by accident – I’d still like him. He has no idea how grateful he should be to me, the person who saved him from certain death. Even if he did know, he wouldn’t care. Ziggy lives life on his own terms.
