Like Father, Like Daughter
by Steve West on December 25, 2018

Or is it the other way around? I invited Lauren to take a closer look at Funeratic so she could see why I spend so much time here. I started with a few pictures, Scott - ("I know him!") and a few others. She thought the concept for Celebrity Goo Game was "cute" but I told her she'd have to get her own account to play. Tragic Comedy intrigued her and the Blogs amused her. "Scott is very clever to come up with these topics." Got creeped out by Knocks posts, notably mine it seems. She actually participated in a few Rock Block concerts, although no tournament concerts. She proceeded to lose seemingly several to Chris and Erik including a Rock Block to Chris. She adored it despite losing. But she made me wonder, "Thirty points higher than me on your SAT's? Really?"

I hope she does get her own account. We'd be happy to have her. :-) Thanks for showing her the site.

Creepy Halloween Lodgings

These creepy places to stay during a Halloween vacation may be too late to consider this year but they're not going anywhere soon so keep them in mind for the future. You can't stay in all of these places but for those that you can, there's that extra layer of creepiness. The Haunted Hull House in Chicago. Go »

Pedants 'R' Us

Today, we attended a celebration for a very good friend of mine whose daughter was graduating High School. It got me thinking in an educational mode so I thought I'd share a pictorial overview of air quotes. Go »

Farewell, My Brother

Brenda's brother, Scott, was in a motorcycle accident yesterday and without knowing any details of the accident, I do know that he was killed. I loved him very much and I know he loved me back. I wrote this simple tribute to him that I was forced to end because I couldn't stop crying. Go »

How Old Is Too Old For Santa Claus?

My daughter Lauren wrote a letter to Santa in which she asked him for nothing - just a letter to say what a cool guy she thinks he is. It has a few misspellings and a grammar error or two and it's not written with the greatest penmanship. And it's completely adorable. Go »
