Oh, and he has been known to pop-off-at-the mouth. Gas...

As I have observed and ferrete...

A Funny Thing Happened On the Way to the Funeral

I ran across this essay I wrote about taking my children to my Granny White’s funeral back in August 1999. Hard to believe it’s been nearly 17 years since she passed.
