I was approached by my blogger buddy, Max, from the PowerPop Blog recently and asked to contribute something for his "Beatles Week" feature. In truth, it will probably go longer than a week as there are many talented writers participating with me. I think his original thought was to have each of us write about … Continue reading The Starr of The Beatles

Trying to Unblock Writer’s Block
I've been struggling to write. I'm sure it is because I have had a lot of things on my mind over the past couple weeks. The things on my mind are not necessarily things I want to write about. It's hard to be in this place. I'm still struggling to get through it, and pray … Continue reading Trying to Unblock Writer’s Block
A Big “Thank You” to “Mr. Puppet”
I believe the saying goes "A stranger is a friend you haven't met yet!" Thanks to this blog and social media, I have been able to connect with some friends who I have never met face to face. One of those friends is Mr. Puppet. A few days ago, I posted a blog about random … Continue reading A Big “Thank You” to “Mr. Puppet”
Turntable Talk #8 – Best Year In Music?
Once again, Dave from A Sound Day has asked some of us music lovers to participate in another round of Turntable Talk. This time around was a bit of a challenge for me. Dave's e-mail stated: "Put your thinking caps on and go through your stacks of records (or scroll thru that I-pod) and ... … Continue reading Turntable Talk #8 – Best Year In Music?
This Little Piggy Likes to Rock and Roll
When Sam and I started dating, my wardrobe consisted of many "band" shirts. I had shirts from the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Pink Floyd, and many more. At one point she started wearing my shirts, so I made sure to get her a couple for her birthday. Band shirts has been an inside joke … Continue reading This Little Piggy Likes to Rock and Roll
Friday Photo Flashback
This is a "feature" I started a couple weeks ago with a Daily Writing Prompt. It's been fun to find a photo to write about each week. This week's gem comes from way back! Yes, that is me! I'm going to guess I am about a year old in the picture. I don't have a … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback
Friday Photo Flashback
Recently, I did a blog based on a writing prompt that suggested finding a photo and blogging about the memories that it brings back to you. I enjoyed doing it and thought I would try to do one every Friday. I'm not sure I'll have enough photos to post, but we'll see. The above photo … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback
How Do You Introduce Someone to the Fab Four?
This blog is part of Turntable Talk, a feature created by Dave at A Sound Day. Since I started this blog four years ago, I have wanted to write a blog about The Beatles. Outside of a few "mentions" and a couple guest blogs from my buddy Max, I have just never tackled a Beatle … Continue reading How Do You Introduce Someone to the Fab Four?
Weekend Wrap Up
What a crazy weekend! As much as I hate not getting a lot of sleep, I have to admit that some of the funniest stories I write about are due to lack of sleep. Take Saturday for example: We needed groceries and a few things, so Sam went to the store. On her way home, … Continue reading Weekend Wrap Up
Sooner Than Later?
To quote the Beatles song, "It Won't Be Long!" It's been some time since I've given an update on our baby boy, and after today's OB appointment, now is a good time to do so. Sam has really had a rough time the last few weeks, and as we enter the final month her discomfort … Continue reading Sooner Than Later?
