Saturday Potpourri: A Pint Low Edition
I’m listening to the Green Pajamas this afternoon, wondering why I haven’t blogged of late. The answer is that I really haven’t had a great deal to say, but why should I let that stop me? *** I’m back in … Continue reading
Sunday Night Potpourri: Playing Catch-Up Edition

Where I Am Today
