If you ever have a bout with insomnia and need something to do, turn on CBS and watch the old reruns of the Star Trek series. What is running right now is the Star Trek – The Next Generation series, with Captain Piccard.
It is amazing to realize that this series came out over 20 years ago. Can we really be that old?

This Sunday is Mother’s Day. Sadly, my own mother passed a few years ago. So this holiday is sad for me. But for the people who are lucky enough to have their mothers near and dear, I hope they spend the day with her and let her know how much she means to them.
My mother used to be very fond of chocolates. As a kid, my dad used to take me down to the corner drug store and let me buy her a big box of Whitman’s chocolates. The big yellow box was called the Whitman’s sampler and she always loved that gift. I miss doing that for her and then sharing in the bounty.

As a kid we would hear the folks say that they were “P O’d” when they were in polite company. At home they would just be “Pissed Off.”
Well, I’m thinking someone has pissed off Mother Nature because this weather is just not right. Houston and New Orleans are getting snow today. That is just not normal. It’s cold here, too. The forecast for the next week is cold and wet. That’s great – if you are a duck.
