Washington Irving And Rejection

Posted on August 28, 2021 by main

Washington Irving was considered America’s first writer. He wrote mostly short stories, and some of you may remember that he wrote Rip Van Winkle and also The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. I mention this not because I am a student of literary history, but that I noticed on my book shelf, a very old version of Irving’s The Sketchbook which contains the two famous stories above. This old book Read More

She Loves to Cook

Posted on August 24, 2021 by main

Although quite a few men have offered her marriage, or long – term relationships of various sizes and shapes, she prefers her independence, much to their dismay. If a man does not respect her independence, then she has no interest in him. She likes to set her own schedule, create her own wealth, leave her panties and socks on the floor if she wants, leave dirty dishes sometimes, run early in the morn Read More

Never Quit

Posted on May 30, 2021 by main

Warning: This is longer than my usual blog. So, I advise starting with a cup of coffee, or better yet, a shot of scotch. I gave up some years ago, not once but several times. Maybe there were more times, I don’t know, but these are the four times that I remember, and now, they are stuck in my memory banks forever. I can’t get rid of those memories, even though perhaps, they were not life changi Read More

She Loves to Drive

Posted on April 29, 2021 by main

She knows only one speed, and that’s a speed that you have never come close to because you were afraid to try. She’s fast but never furious; speedy, but sure of herself and calmly confident in her skill. She has no time to waste, but sometimes she does slow down just to enjoy the scenery, yet unfortunately, the problem is that others can’t help but stare at her at the wheel —enjoying the scenery that s Read More

Her Mind Excites Me

Posted on February 22, 2021 by main

She has such a warm and inviting voice, never judgmental or condescending but always producing gentle waves of calm deep within my masculine soul. That was the impression I received the first time I heard her voice and each time I heard it, I yearned to listen to her more, not just for the intellect and knowledge that she shared with me so generously, but for the stimulation she brought to my hungry br Read More

Bad Asses and Gentleman

Posted on February 14, 2021 by main

Bad Asses and Gentleman I suppose you can be a bad ass, a pompous ass, or a gentleman, but can you really be all three? Or maybe if anyone calls you an ass, especially preceded by an adjective, you cannot also be a gentleman or especially not a real gentleman. Some of the other commonly used adjectives that are used in front of the word ass also include stupid, dumb, smart, lazy, fat, ugly and perh Read More
