When I was a kid my school used to serve Sloppy Joes. I hated that. For obvious reasons. Teasing all the time. So, for the longest time, around this house, we called them Sloppy Bobs. But tonight, my kids came up... facebook.com/1279984186/pos…

Super excited about this! My new favorite coffee mug! Thanks to Robert McCaskill and all my friends out at the Prue Rd. Substation for this. You guys are the best. And I was honored to contribute to one of our own.

I have a question for my lawyer friends. Let's assume a character in a story lives in a regular American suburban neighborhood. Nothing special about this neighborhood; same as every other neighborhood through... facebook.com/joe.mckinney.1…

Thank you, everyone, for the wonderful birthday wishes yesterday! I had this great post planned containing all my thoughts on turning fifty, but didn’t put it up. I’m still out to sea on the matter. But I know that... facebook.com/1279984186/pos…

You know those things you put over extension cords to keep you from tripping on them? They’re like double-sided ramps that keep the cord in place and even let you run dollies and things like that over them. Anybody... facebook.com/1279984186/pos…
