Sometimes I just stumble across fun little facts and/or tidbits. When that happens, they will wind up duly noted in this category.
One of the traditions that has developed is attending a Christmas Eve service of Lessons and Carols, followed by Communion and a candlelight service. Both services at the church were very full, with people in the balcony during the first service. It’s a time and place to feel comfortable. While there are many people there I don’t know, there are certainly lots of people I grew up with, and even older folks that helped me grow up.
Read moreMyself and another person with whom I work have recently conducted our own scientific study (scientific at least to the extent of most of the radical rights requirements), and we’ve determined that the cause of homosexuality must be Coors Beer. Well actually, that’s not completely true…it’s the Colorado Rocky Mountain Spring Water.

Wednesday I stuck close to home and spent the day with Mom, and had dinner with her and some of her friends. It was overcast and rainy most of the day Wednesday.

Read moreWell, I got home from Dallas late last night (as in just before midnight). Overall, it was a good trip. We caught up with a lot of clients and uncovered a few possible leads. I also had a chance to see people I’d not seen in a while.
Read moreAs I mentioned in an earlier post, I’m in Dallas this weekend and most of the coming week. The only good thing was I got to see an old friend. Robert and his lover had been previously invited to dinner at the home of some friends. I went along, and it was a very nice eveniing. They were a very nice couple, and one was an excellent cook.
