Reid About It

Why is Bruce Springsteen’s “I’m on Fire” so creepy?

Why aren’t we happy in our relationships anymore? Why is the divorce rate so high? I blame our modern-day unrealistic expectations, myself.

I spent last night watching an HGTV Show where this couple buys houses in California for hundreds of thousands of dollars and flips them for a profit. Makes me wish they had one of those shows in Kentucky where I live. “We bought the house at auction for fourteen thousand, and we redid the kitchen, […]

The fine folks at Crossroad Press have picked it up, so it’s available at Amazon.com and also their website. If you’ve already picked up the book and left me a review, thank you very much. […]
