Write in the Thick of It: Memories at the Monkey-Hog Saloon
http://writeinthethickofit.blogspot.com/2007/06/memories-at-monkey-hog-saloon.html
Tuesday, June 19, 2007. Memories at the Monkey-Hog Saloon. Pop Culture: Tickle Me Elmo, MTV, Rosie O'Donnell. 8220;Well tickle me Elmo. And call me Spanky! 8221; slurred the drunk who had just collapsed at Ford’s feet. The gunslinger did a double-take, shaken by the sot’s turn of phrase. 8220;You okay, pardner? 8221; the dealer asked, and Ford waved the concern away. Had led instead to nightmares. As a young boy, Ford had always felt that he had a special destiny. 8217; and why do you want it so bad?

Oh Sweet Mystery of Life at Last I've Found You: December 2006
http://puttinontheritzmama.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Oh Sweet Mystery of Life at Last I've Found You. Tuesday, December 19, 2006. All I did was bend over to pick up a pencil! 36 years ago today I bent over to pick up a pencil and changed the course of my life. How you might ask? I bent over to pick up a pencil and got a terrible headache. A little while later D and his cousin came by. D and I were dating. I was serious and he was holding out. He was only 23 and didn't want to settle down until he was 30. Now the plot thickens. Saturday, December 09, 2006.

Oh Sweet Mystery of Life at Last I've Found You. Thursday, August 31, 2006. I really should be in bed right now since I do get to go to school tomorrow BUT I am still too excited. I really LOVE FOOTBALL. When I know the players,. I know all of the players this year. After the game the coaches requested that the band stay in the stands to play the school song. After our players had shaken hands with the other team, they all came over to the sidelines, clapped their hands as the band played and sang th...

Oh Sweet Mystery of Life at Last I've Found You: April 2007
http://puttinontheritzmama.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Oh Sweet Mystery of Life at Last I've Found You. Sunday, April 22, 2007. Miss Taylor died and will be buried on Monday. She was 93 or something like that. I remember thinking she was about that old when I had her in class all those years ago. She was an old maid and quite set in her ways. She was a tough ole bird and I can only imagine how she would deal with today's students. I imagine they would have been whacked a few times. Posted by Mrs. E at 2:16 PM. The Eternal Prom Queen. We stayed later than we ...

Oh Sweet Mystery of Life at Last I've Found You. Thursday, November 30, 2006. I loved snow as a kid. Now, not so much. However, since it is here and I get to miss 2 days of school, let it snow! I never realized when I was growing up that teachers enjoy snow days, too. Who wouldn't like a little surprise vacation in the middle of the year? You can't plan anything in advance. You just get that ever important call and POW! You get the day off. How did I spend my day off? Yep, that's right DELIGHTED! One of ...

Panic and Pantomimes: Ash Wednesday
http://dispatchingdisaster.blogspot.com/2008/02/ash-wednesday.html
The ins-and-outs of life in an emergency occupation. Wednesday, February 6, 2008. As a Protestant, I always viewed Ash Wednesday as an odd day. It wasn't until my post-college years that I really came to understand the meaning behind it, and who exactly celebrates it. In the past year, I have fervently studied Catholicism. There are many unique practices, and the Lenton season is certainly one of them. For the remainder of the day, the faithful. Of those who observe it. You see, most of the faithful.

Panic and Pantomimes: March 2008
http://dispatchingdisaster.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
The ins-and-outs of life in an emergency occupation. Friday, March 14, 2008. Every week, there is news on the mortgage crisis. You can't escape the headlines about foreclosures. The USA Today paper is usually plastered with a mortgage-crisis headline. This past week, the headline reads that mortgage borrowers are simply walking away from their home. Succumbing to foreclosure instead of losing more money. Also, borrowers are dipping into their 401K's. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I am a...
