God in his infinite wisdom must have prepared a special place in heaven for watermelons, barbeque, shrimp and homemade banana ice cream! I've tasted watermelons all over the south, but the best ones I've ever eaten were the melons my cousin Jackie and I ...

When the final chapter in my life's story has been written and work on the screenplay for the movie begins, someone will be faced with the difficult assignment of deciding who will play me on the big screen. It won't be an easy task because it will take ...

Yesterday I listened to the happiest mockingbird in creation. Perched on a limb in a spring time maple tree, he cast a spell on his audience below. We listened to song after song until he wearied of all the applause and left the stage. In a few moments...

To my slightly used brain it doesn't appear that there is any real sanity in the world today, much less in the hallways of our schools. Kids today are not really a lot different from the ones I knew back in my high school years, except they have a few mo...

Waking up my cat Spike, especially in the evening when he's been asleep in his box in the garage, is not a very wise thing to do if it's my bedtime. After having slept most of the day, he's full of energy and wants to play. I just want to go to sleep!

Spike is a pre-owned cat. When we got him from the humane society in their adopt-a-pet program, his name was Lonnie. I couldn't in good conscience continue to use that name for a cat, so I renamed him Spike. I know that seems more appropriate for a dog,...

Unless fishing is your way of making a living, it's supposed to be fun. It's always enjoyable for me because I don't fish for bass, at least not on purpose! Bass fishing is a lot like work and by nature I'm a lazy man, who has never had the slightest in...

Wednesday morning I awoke at 2:36 am. I know this because the first thing I did was look at my digital clock and wonder why my left arm was tingling. I certainly hadn't stuck a paper clip into an electrical outlet during the night. My arm wasn't reall...

Developing a positive mental attitude is not exactly a piece of cake, but it can be done. Unless you already have one, it's hard to be self confident in any thing you under take. I recall quite vividly one self righteous gentleman telling me that I need...

The morning was slightly overcast with marshmallow clouds hovering over the lake as we made our way to one of our favorite fishing holes. The fish were still on the beds in only couple of feet of water and if you dangled a minnow anywhere near them, you ...

In the backyard barbeque cooker's Bible, it's almost blasphemous to give an electric smoker even an honorable mention in the "Best Smoker Category". To many of us, a smoker or grill that's attached to an electric cord is an insult to all of us who've sme...

Never trust anyone who has a bad cold or flu and tells you that it sounds and looks worse than it really is! Such people are not to be trusted! I'm sure there are those who believe exactly what they're telling you, but they're probably in the minority. ...

I was waist deep in the Gulf of Mexico, fishing for redfish when the first gnawing pain hit me in the stomach. To be more accurate it was my lower abdomen. Like all dedicated fishermen, I ignored the pain and kept right on throwing my silver spoon betwe...

After 40 weeks of gestation, most pregnant women are impatient for labor to begin; their restlessness may cause them to look for ways to induce labor. Once full term pregnancy is reached, there are several ways to induce labor including many natural meth...
