actually the coffee was about the only thing that was decent today. And they had the small pot on the table so I had immediate refills.....even the IHOP pancakes were pathetic and the syrup flavorless......give me cracker barrel's real maple syrup

Breakfast has always been my favorite meal. I loved taking my kids to breakfast when they were young. It was less expensive and I like breakfast foods....... I have met many friends for breakfast over the years. Mom and pop restaurants, Awful House, Cracker Barrel IHOP ,SHoneys etc. Breakfast...

I have been obsessed about sports and competition my entire life. Probably why I taught PE forty years. The greatest players I ever saw live were the following three. Pete Maravich came to play UF in the sixties. Saw him score 50pts. I have seen him do things I never saw players ever do again...

I love the idea of September. It is NOT August. It sounds even cooler. We are having mid 80s days in North Fla. and it feels better. And it is COLLEGE FOOTBALL Season, too. Fall (when it finally lets go of summer) is my favorite season.

Strangely enough my ex wife called me the other day and had all the letters I wrote to her during the year I was working in Venice Fla and she was in college. She was cleaning out our old house and selling it. Asked if I wanted them. I said yes of course. We wrote to each other everyday for...

I still do. I have an exercise room and hit it 3 times a week at least. DId a stairbastrd for 30 years till the 2nd one broke. Now have a stationary recumbent bike and bench to work out on...I did nautilus machines and stairmaster each day for 15 years in my 30s and 40s.

I read extensively about it and the woman that interviewed them from the FBI. They certainly sounded like abused children in their lives. The father sounded like a monster. THe idea that two brothers would be just born like that is hard to believe. The father was very controlling and that is...

Before cell phones I used to give the phone to my 2 year old if it was a scam call......I have a friend with a landline that answers all the calls (he has no caller ID either). I think its one of the few things that entertain him.

You did a wonderful thing for your mother. I am impressed. We took care of our dad near the end but he never had a problem with social interactions.....And he had done it for his mom. We watched how much he did for her near the end of her life.

Interesting,. I am very southern. Grew up during segregation. I know those characters well. But Dellla was a tall black child. Very smart but had an extremely hard life........

The funny thing is she wrote a paper for her 6th grade teacher about me. The teacher asked them to write about a person they respect. I still have the paper. . He name was Della Dubette. The day I saw her she said that and was gone. I love seeing many of my former students in successful...

I taught forty years and had many kids and parents show me appreciation in hundreds of ways. I had a former student see me one day in a hospital and tell me I saved her life. She told me many years ago (she was 12) that her mom's boyfriend would not leave her alone. I immediately made the call...
