Welcome to my Blog
This is actually Version 4 of my blog.

Death Threats & Dinner Suits
Saturday evening I was at the Llannerch & Gredington Lodge’s Joint “Ladies Evening” in Llangollen. The evening was a formal event so the dress code was Dinner suits, dress shirts, bow-ties, the works. The majority of the evening was very...

Crash & Burn… The Wingman Chronicles
I was talking to a friend recently, and for some reason I can not recall the conversation drifted to pulling, Helping friends pull, and things you can do. It was one of them weird conversations that just seem to jump from tangent to tangent with...
Nothing compares to a Penguin.
I have recently reconnected with some old friends on various Social Networking sites, and we have been catching up and reminding each other of various stories and escapades from the past. I will probably post a few of the more “safe” stories on...
Purple haze all in my brain, Lately things just don’t seem the same
It’s a really small world you know. Even without the Interweb making it smaller and smaller every year. It used to be said that the “Human Web” covering the world meant that any person on the planet is at most just “Six degrees of Separation” from...
