I made the following Facebook post on Valentine’s Day: Some people reacted as if I were against love, romance, and chocolate. First let us all get something straight and perfectly clear:  I am never against chocolate. Especially chocolate pie. Mmmm. Pie. One friend, for some reason, tagged me in the comments on a posted story…

Spoiler Alert: He hung up on me uh…Lank!

Random thoughts as I sip coffee at 5:30 in the morning on August 3, 2017: I had a wonderful mother-in-law and father-in-law. I miss them. This Kona blend coffee is pretty good. Sometimes, like today, I wake up at 4:30 a.m. for no apparent reason. I specify “a.m.” because I don’t usually sleep at work.…

  Mother’s Day is coming up this Sunday.  I no longer bring flowers or even cards.  She has a limited amount of space in her room and already enough clutter. Besides, the purpose of the flowers and cards are lost on her.  We will probably celebrate with donut holes from Krispy Kreme. She still can…

I am turning into a grouchy old man. I know this. I accept this. Please note, there is a rant to follow. It makes me feel better, okay? The evening of March 29, 2017 saw a round of severe weather come through Arkansas. Nothing unusual about that at all. It ’tis the season for that…

*Note, the name of the subject of this writing has been changed in honor of privacy to his family. One hot Summer night in 1981, I was leaving my then girlfriend’s house to get into my dad’s 1972 GMC  pickup truck and drive back home. Home was down the street a half mile. Because I technically…

Granted, it has been about 35 years ago as I type this, but somethings you don’t forget.  I remember you didn’t go to sleep around Robert Saunders and Elmo Irby. Which is why I did not sleep for about 48-hours. Let me back up a little bit.  I was in my high school band.  Yeah, I…

During my time at KTHV Television in Little Rock, we had a slight problem during the first few years I was there. That was the domain name of THV.com. The problem wasn’t the domain name THV.com. I would have loved to have that domain. The problem was we did not own the domain THV.com.  Someone…
