If You Are The One That Keeps Praying For Snow, PLEASE STOP.
The title of this blog post came from a photo that one of my facebook friends took of the sign outside his local church. I thought it was sooooo funny, sooooo clever and SOOOOOO TRUE, that I just had to share it with everyone. I for one really do love ...
Medicaid…no one pays?
I took my son to the dentist. I was informed that he was in deep need of orthodontic work. He has a “mess” in his mouth and would need the work sooner rather than later. So we discuss our options when the dentist asks; “do you have Medicaid?” I very ...
Photo of 'Painted on Bikini Mother' OR Photo of 'Convicted Drug Dealer'...Which one would you rather see?
I'm not sure what this blog will bring, but as I was reading The Pilot online today, like I do everyday, I realized that I keep seeing photo after photo after photo of convicted drug dealers lately. Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful that these folks (if proven guilty) have ...

Go OUT to a movie OR stay IN with a DVD?
We haven't been 'OUT' to the movie's for a very, very long time. So long, in fact, I can't remember the last time. I was thinking that maybe Shutter Island would be a good movie to catch on the BIG screen this weekend and then I started thinking about the ...
Chaos
Listening to a radio program the gentleman gave some interesting advice. The discussion was about how quick humanity can dissolve. He mentioned that his uncle worked for the government and passed along this advice. When a “disaster” occurs whether man made (hahaha) or natural. Do not go where the government ...
How Was My Meal...?
They will never know, because she didn't ask. I had lunch today at a locally owned restaurant in Southern Pines very close to Downtown. I've been to this 'place' about 4 times now, hoping that it would turn into one of my favorites. The potential was there, but I don't ...
A Morning at the Commissioners Retreat- "Water" 'bout it?
I spent a couple of hours this morning (1/27) at the Senior Enrichment Center attending a retreat for the Moore County Commissioners. It appears the Commissioners are looking at the feasibility of taking another penny or two off the County property tax rate. It looks like they can do that ...
