...so I broke-down and tried those "Double Down" "sandwiches" from KFC today. They're the new bun-less wonders- a pair of breaded/fried chicken fillets sandwiching oozing swiss cheese, special sauce and bacon. Being a fat dude- I should have loved them- 'cause fried food and me enjoy real tight...

Sis and I spoke this morning and this will be our Mom's first Mother's Day living her "new life" in a new apartment just moments from our homes. So we wanna celebrate "in the neighborhood" somehow. The forecast here is great for the weekend, so we're planning a picnic at nearby Miller Park. The...

How does Rick upload several? I can only manage three. Hmmm.....

Okay- now I've got it! (Didn't dare try to insert the bath-time nudey shot- I'd proll'y be escorted out from work by the law for some whacko charge of some sort!)

I don't mind making myself vulnerable by sharing something exciting- that MAY very well flop! The cookbook /travel memoir I've had in the works for a decade was not only completed this past winter, but after sending out 2 dozen query letters I finally received a green light from Sasquatch...

This may miff or offend some folks- but I feel I gotta say it anyway. I just saw pics from a wedding that a friend attended 2 weekends ago. The ceremony was beautiful. The bride was gorgeous- the groom handsome. The flowers were stunning. The reception was a buffet affair for 150 and...
