I really wish the night dance I was talking about was the Zumba (Latin dance workout) class that my Dear One and I did this evening.  We have faithfully been working out for a couple of months now and Zumba, spinning class, instructor led free weight classes, and the general machines have all becom...

Yesterday, I went to  the largest funeral I’ve ever had the privilege to attend.  Crowd estimates are just under 1000 people.  Yes, really, 1000 people.  Who has a funeral with that many people in attendance?  Royalty, celebrity, heads of state?  I would say that judging by the people who ...
