I consider myself to be a movie lover. There are a handful of movies that I consider my absolute favorites that you would think I would watch them on a regular basis that I can go for years without watching. But I always watch my favorite Christmas movies every December. This is not intended as… Continue reading Favorite Christmas Movies

Watching The Room
For a long time, I have been a fan of cult films and movies that are considered “bad”. I am always looking for bad films that I haven’t heard of before. A few years ago while looking at the CNN website, I saw a link to an entertainment article that said “A Room with a… Continue reading Watching The Room
Inflatable Baby Jesus Ukulele Chords
A few weeks ago, I performed Inflatable Baby Jesus during the worship service at our church. Hopefully, you have listened to the song and know that there is a ukulele part. My pastor plays ukulele and played that part during this performance. I put together a chord sheet that we used during the performance. I thought you… Continue reading Inflatable Baby Jesus Ukulele Chords
Kangaroo on the Loose
In my hometown of Alamo, Tennessee, there is an exotic animal park. When I was growing up, one of the local farmers had several buffalo. These were a rare sight in West Tennessee. The farm where they were located was on a major highway near town. They were always something to keep an eye out… Continue reading Kangaroo on the Loose
Why The Three Stooges Scare Me
There are a handful of Three Stooges shorts that have scary stories. When I was a kid watching these films, I saw them way more often than I saw any other horror movies. They were just scary enough to introduce me to the pleasures of horror films.
Why Laurel and Hardy Scare Me
The best horror films also make us laugh. Any time you go see a horror film that has a moment where the audience screams, it is always followed with laughs. Many comedians have made horror/comedy films. Laurel and Hardy went into this territory with their film Oliver the Eighth.
Why Pamelyn Ferdin Scares Me
I doubt if very many of you recognize the name Pamelyn Ferdin. But if you grew up in the 1960’s and 1970’s, you would have seen her in countless television shows. Younger kids would know her face if they ever watch Brady Bunch reruns. She was the voice of Lucy Van Pelt in many of the Peanuts… Continue reading Why Pamelyn Ferdin Scares Me
Why Dana Andrews Scares Me
A few weeks ago, I saw the film noir classic, Laura for the first time. It is probably the film that Dana Andrews is best known for but I know him better for a handful of science fiction and horror films he made in the 1960’s. My favorite of these is a British film called The Frozen Dead.
Our Experience with Epilepsy – The Later Years
I’ve talked about our early experiences with epilepsy in my previous two posts. My wife had no seizures during the time she was pregnant with our three children or any of the time between the pregnancies. About two years after our third child was born, my wife had another seizure. Almost a year later, she had… Continue reading Our Experience with Epilepsy – The Later Years
Our Experience with Epilepsy – The San Antonio Trip
I talked my first experience with my wife having seizures in my previous post. She didn’t have any issues until the end of that year as we prepared to visit my mother-in-law in San Antonio. My wife and I had planned to travel with her brother and his wife to Little Rock, Arkansas on New Year’s… Continue reading Our Experience with Epilepsy – The San Antonio Trip
