Rob Schneider’s character in the Water Boy cracks me up when he yells “You can do it!” We are all like the ant moving the rubber tree plant or Rosie the Riveter – we are all significant cogs in the world, our state, our community. We can all make a difference somehow on some level. …

Feedback is welcome. Trust me I already picked up on 100 things I would have done differently – I’m my own worst critic! Talk radio is awesome and I adore the folks at WIST AM 690 for giving me a chance! Listen HERE
When they start the game, they don’t yell, “Work ball.” They say, “Play ball.” ~Willie Stargell 1981~ Now I am the last person to feel qualified to give parenting advice. I often look like Linda Blair with my head spinning round and green slime coming out of my mouth. So instead of me actually giving …
Saturday was an absolute marathon day for the Princess of Positive. A baseball game for son #1, the premier of Kiss My Gumbo radio on AM 690 WIST, a wedding, the reception and…pirates on Bourbon Street. OK – Scout’s honor I am not making the pirate stuff up. And, fwiw (for what it’s worth), New …

I chaperoned my son’s 4th grade class to Honey Island Swamp for the day. Yepper, my first time in a the Louisiana Swamplands! What a great time and education for me, I mean the kids. You see, ain’t no swamps up there in MA where I grew up. This is all brand spanking new to …
It all started with a $1300 boat trailer bought 5 years ago. It is literally going to take an act of freaking Congress for me to register the boat trailer in this state. Yes, this is the very same trailer that we bought when we bought our boat at Bass Pro in Springfield, MO. Get …

* We arrived at 10:50 on Sunday and not a parking space in sight. The lots were full so I did the ole’ “Look kids… Big Ben, Jackson Square, Brewery” tour (ya, I was driving in circles like a complete moron)! The meter maids were out in full-force (they really should give it a rest …
* My favorite signs in Mandeville * I got an e-mail from a concerned reader who wrote that: the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality is planning on closing their Mandeville office which is the only one in the parish. Once they leave, it will be a burden on us all to get them back here …
Tonight the 3 kids (plus a friend ) and myself, bravely crossed Florida Street, rode down Villere Street and made it to the Mandeville Trailhead for the opening concert series. We had a blast!!!! I had 2 beers, the kids had $2 hot dogs, some chips and drinks (no cooking for me). We hung out …
I’m reading Michael Yon’s brand new book (signed edition) and what leaped out to me on pp. 24 & 25 was this: “Mail is more important than even hot showers or hot food. When I was in Fallujah, the mail center received about eight shipping containers every two days; three were filled with letters. People …
I just figured I better jump back on the vagina bandwagon some more if I want to be in the “cool kids club.” I know I know – I said no more vagina talk and I should get back to my Princess of Positive thing – but I need readers dammit. When I posted about …
