A Nyte's Tale

"Even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there." - Will Rogers

I was surfing the net this morning and found another amazing web gem. This kid has great imagination and talent! It's a wonderful tribute to MJ. Even if your not a fan of MJ, it is still enjoyable to watch. I hope you love it as much as I did. (Click "More Web Gems" at the beginning of this post to go directly to the video or you can copy and paste this link to your browser.) http://video.yahoo.com/watch/5854827/15317037 Want another one? Then take a look at this web gem: http://video.yahoo.com/watch/5771163/15113200 (You will have to copy and paste this link to your browser.) :) Enjoy!!!

Those of you (who know me well) know that I avoid Walmart as much as possible. Nothing against the store itself, but I have an aversion to crowded places, and the Walmart in my home town is a perfect example of a crowded place where people are normally rude and downright strange sometimes. I found a website today that sums all this up for your enjoyment. Trust me…I believe you will spend many hours laughing as you look through this website and probably be able to contribute a few pictures of things you have seen at Walmart too. So sit back and take a moment to have a good laugh by visiting: http://www.peopleofwalmart.com/?paged=2 . (You may have to copy and paste the link to your browser.) :D

I must appologize to all my readers, for not posting anything new lately. I know it is dreadfully boring to see the same postings over and over. I do want to say 'thank you' to all my faithful readers for continuing to check back each week. To my newest blog follower in Houston: Welcome! AND to my wonderful long time blog followers in Austin, Michigan, California, Georgia, North Carolina, etc.: You guys rock! As you all know, my favorite composer is Loren DiGiorgi. His music is beautiful and he loves to share it with everyone (as do I). Loren has made a YouTube video of his song "Stage 4". The song itself is very touching and the video suits the song quite well. I am sure you will enjoy it, so please take a moment to watch. Here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bX1clj659F8 Now for another story: A few weeks ago I (and my son) had the opportunity to attend a writers workshop that was hosted by Wizard Academy. I took vacaction from work, drove the family man...

My twitter friend Loren has been very busy lately. His music is always wonderful and inspirational. He has a CD coming out this August. If you have never heard his music here is a link to his website. Here is the link: http://www.lorendigiorgi.com/home.html Please visit and listen to some of his music. I guarantee you will just as inspired by his talent as I am. One of my favorite quotes reminds me of Loren’s music: "Music is well said to be the speech of angels." ~T.Carlyle. Also, I want to tell you about a great guy named, Christopher Laney, who critiqued the first chapter of my book. Not only did he show me where my writing could be “tweaked and tightened” to make it better, he even spent over an hour with me on the phone Saturday giving me advice. I will forever be in his debt for the time he spent to help me better understand areas of my writing that I need to work on. Here is a link to his website: www.lessonsfromthecockpit.com Go there…learn…be inspired. Chris al...

"Many people hear voices when no one is there. Some of them are called mad and are shut up in rooms where they stare at the walls all day. Others are called writers and they do pretty much the same thing." - Meg Chittenden That is pretty much true for this writer. Although I divide my time between staring at walls while my fingers rest on the keyboard and staring at the computer monitor with fingers tap dancing on the keys.
