The right thing…..when you do it, just ’cause you should… November 11, 2011

My Dad in his Ray-Bans....with my Mom

Like many of you, I have pondered the inexplicable goings-on at Penn State…I feel so sad for those kids…that no one stood up for them. So on this Veteran’s Day, I offer you the example of my Dad, who stood up for a child in a similar terrible situation long ago, even when he didn’t have to do so…it was in this previous post. I wonder what happened to that little boy. But it made me think about how we all come to critical choices in our lives, and what we do in those difficult moments….defend those who can’t defend themselves, or protect the establishment…those choices stay with us, always.

The good guys of sports....

Oh, and something else that made me think of how the big money of college athletics was part of that bad decision making.  Pay a visit to Kurt’s Corner-here…you’ll love his look at a Maryland  D-3 basketball program. As Kurt says, “Nobody is slipping them cash or sliding them a hooker.  A big, fat, endorsement in not headed their way. NBA scouts do not come to the games.” They play for the love of the game….how crazy is that?? It will be a few minutes well spent…and how often can you say that these days??

Happy Veteran’s Day….hope all of you make some good decisions this weekend, do something nice for someone….cook something delicious, and come home safe…’cause we miss you! ♥
 

Real Funky…in a good way…exploring Kurt Corner October 14, 2011

Hey, it's Kurt Corner!! Where the hell am I???

OK, this may be the perfect thing for the weekend…It has some funk “in a good way”(you’ll hear more about this later), good food…no make that great food, a destination not too far away, …and just a wee nod to soft porn(maybe we should dub it food porn)at the end. I figured that would catch your attention. You people.

There’s a place you have to visit….I have come to know Kurt Corner, because Kurtie-boy is a friend of mine who absconded from the city years ago, and moved lock, stock and barrel to the Eastern Shore. Just scraped us off. Oh, and he also happens to be a genius filmmaker, and he’s pretty funny to boot(and maybe a future in the soft porn industry, who knows). Occasionally ribald(look it up). And living in the country with perhaps too much time on his hands….he has created Kurt Corner.

does this look freakin' delicious or what?

And while I watched this week’s episode”Bay on a Bun”-watch here(listen close for funky in a good way)…I laughed out loud at the end and even applauded a little(and I was by myself). And then I had this overwhelming desire to visit Ocean Odyssey. And I was hungry.

So give yourself a treat, hey you’ve earned it….drop by the Corner(it’s not like “the corner” here in Baltie) and explore the place…and the off the beaten path mind of Kurt(that’s an understatment). You’ll be glad you did.

Hey, forget the calories and have a Bay on a Bun this weekend, do something nice for somebody you don’t even like that much, forgive someone you’ve been holding a grudge against(secret grudge is the best)…and come home safe….’cause we miss you! ♥
