Man do I have a story!?!

Great post by Chip MacGregor today. He's a top literary agent in the publishing world. As you may or may not know the publishing world changes constantly and in this economic downturn it is one of the hardest hit industries. .As a published author who fills my how-to books with my stories (by focusing on my readers' needs), I so get what Chip Macgregor is talking about here! Great wisdom offered for free here! If you're not already famous and you dream of publishing your life story, read MacGregor's entire post. Chip Macgregor tells it like it is! But don't let that discourage you, rather read to the end and get his wisdom on how you can STILL reach your dream--make YOUR story useful for other's struggles by helping THEM conquer what you already conquered rather than making it all about you.

My favorite game of all time

Cleaning out my office and just came across my ticket stubs from Aug 2, 1997 Anaheim Angels vs Chicago White Sox at Anaheim Stadium...always one of my favorite games of all time...didn't remember who won, but I do know it was the night my man proposed. Aw....never has the national anthem brought such tears...or was it the ring on my finger.

Just looked up the score that game and the
Angels prevailed over the White Sox 5-2


Up until that night my favorite rendition of the national anthem was Whitney Houston's at the Super Bowl.

Wild Things too dangerous for Kids under 12

Okay, so if your kids are having a lot of nightmares parents, please consider what you're allowing them to watch simply because all the kids are watching it. Read these silly parent comments from parents who carelessly let their kids go to any movie that comes out (PG, R, whatever). I bet they wonder why their kids don't sleep well! I won't be taking my 7 & 8 year old. USA TODAY REVIEW And let me finish my rant by saying how irritated I am when I go to an adult comedy, like a Will Ferrell or Adam Sandler movie and see many families with young kids in the audience. Come on parents, do you all talk like that at home? Sad if you do.
