I inserted this title because of the freeze frame on the You Tube video 🙂 So my friend calls and says she wants to get out of this relationship she’s been in for the last seven months. First of all, why are you calling me? This sounds like a “Sex in the City” dialogue. Should…
Anticipating the actions of others, wow! I have to say when this one came down the pipe my first thought was all the ex-girlfriends and the bad relationships I have had. Could I tie this in with driving, sure…I mean driving and bad relationship go hand in hand. Think about it, you have a relationship…
I was driving down a lonely highway in the middle of the Louisiana Bayou, somewhere between Morrow and Opelousas. Ghost fog would blanket with a haunting surprise that no headlights could warn.

Just the other day I was on the freeway on ramp, when this guy in front of me was doing 30mph on the entrance ramp! How in the (Insert the name of a warm place here) does this jerk think he is going to merge on the highway/interstate at that speed? The speed limit is…
Now I will admit, I don’t drink often but when I do, Jack Daniels is my poison. Some people like to mix their J.D. with Coca-Cola, others like to mix it with Xanax. You won’t give a damn about nothing! Mixing drugs with alcohol is a deadly combination; you might as well play Russian roulette. …
It seems like nowadays everyone has a cell phone, it’s almost a necessity. With GPS, web service, and even watching T.V. who could live without it?
